    SG 5 Update #7

    This update adds the following enhancements:

    • – Web server enhancements:
      • > Performance tuning of the web redirect component to handle more load especially for the larger capacity product models
      • > Enhanced stability under some load conditions
    • – Admin GUI enhancements:
      • > Sync feature of ANTlabs Service Provider page enhanced to show the status of the most recent sync of gateway settings from ASP and allow user to view the details of the synced settings (plans, portals, bandwidth, VLANs)
      • > Show system name in login page and at the top banner after login
        • *Note: system name is configured at Settings > SNMP and will take effect upon logging out and logging back in to the admin GUI. The reboot recommendation you get after the save is for the purpose of applying changes (if any) to other SNMP settings that require other services such as the client manager to restart, so the reboot recommendation can be safely ignored where no such changes are made.

    The following bug fixes are included in this update:

    • – Network-related fixes:
      • > Fix WAN SNAT
        • – Fix gateway not responding to configured SNAT IP ranges on the WAN interface
        • – Fix issue where HA passive node responds to SNAT IP on the WAN interface
      • > Fix passive node in HA setup to not respond to ARP requests for LAN IP
      • > Fix static source routes not taking effect
    • – Prepare for pairing command (invoked via admin GUI or CLI) enhanced to reset the HA node identifier to fix loss of HA communications after a cloned vSG node joins the active node from which it was cloned
    • – Network bandwidth-related fixes:
      • > SG 5400 only – Fix QoS server so VLAN-tagged client traffic goes under the assigned QoS tier
      • > Fix speed optimization (turning off redirection of some downstream traffic to a QoS concentrator) not taking effect under some conditions
    • – Fix PMS room change not triggering dynamic PAN VLAN update for the guest’s user account, so user device could not go under the new room’s mapped VLAN even after re-associating with the downstream WiFi network
    • – Fix bugs in syncing of plans/locations from ASP:
      • > Fix sync errors of existing plans with mismatched plan types
      • > Fix autologin location not honouring the assigned plan bandwidth settings
      • > Fix fallback web-based mechanism of autologin locations not granting internet access
    • – Fix notification of software update level difference between two HA nodes not showing upon logging in to admin GUI
    • – Authentication log-related fixes
      • > Fill in appropriate error messages for:
        • – User account creation error for the RADIUS authentication scenario
        • – Some rare errors encountered during SMS-verified form authentication
      • > Fix additional ‘Fail’ authentication log being created, resulting in two logs for the same login attempt — one ‘Incomplete’, the other ‘Fail’ — when social media platform invokes callback to the gateway with an error condition. Should just update the first log from ‘Incomplete’ to ‘Fail’.
