If a user upgrades from 19.11.4 to 20.02 or 20.05 based on hns3 network engine, some features of hns3 will not be supported.  But in many cases customers prefer to use the LTS version. We will recommend them to upgrade from 19.11.0 to 19.11.4, and will recommend that customers upgrade from 19.11.4 to 20.11.0 after the release of 20.11.0.     Regards Xavier
