Many UBNT Airmax XM model names are detected correctly now (e.g., the Loco is no longer displayed as Bullet) (#632)
Also, various new image aliases have been added for these devices.
- batman-adv: mesh_no_rebroadcast is now enabled for Mesh-on-WAN/LAN (#652)
- The new UCI option
gluon-core.@wireless[0].preserve_channels
can be used to prevent a changed WLAN channel from being reset on firmware upgrades (#640) - PoE passthrough can now be configured from site.conf and the Advanced Settings on TP-Link CPE 210/510 and Ubiquiti NanoStations (#328)
- The config mode altitude field can now be hidden using the
config_mode.geo_location.show_altitude
site.conf setting (#693) - The contact information field in the config mode can be made obligatory using the
config_mode.owner.obligatory
site.conf option - The node name setting in the config mode is no longer restricted to valid DNS hostnames, but allows any UTF-8 string (#414)
- Besides the hostname, public key, site config and primary MAC address, the contact information can now be accessed from config mode site texts
- The functions
escape
andurlescape
for HTML and URL escaping are now available from config mode site texts. They should always be used when including user-provided information like hostnames and contact information in HTML code or URLs. - Dropbear has been updated to a newer version, enabling new SSH crypto methods and removing some old ones like DSA. This reduces the time needed for the first boot and makes SSH logins faster (#223)
- WLAN basic and supported rate sets have been made configurable, to allow disabling 802.11b rates (#810)
- ath10k-based devices are now supported officially; it's possible to choose between IBSS- and 11s-capable firmwares in site.mk (#864)
- The
prefix4
andnext_node.ip4
site.conf options are optional now.
The stability of the ath9k WLAN driver has been improved significantly (#605)
mac80211, hostapd and other related drivers and services have been backported from LEDE
42f559e
.Extremely slow downloads could lead to multiple instances of the autoupdater running concurrently (#582)
A lockfile is used to prevent this and timeouts have been added to download processes.
Usage of static DNS servers on the WAN port has been fixed (#886)
This is a regression introduced in Gluon v2016.1.6.
- The "Expert Mode" has been renamed to "Advanced Settings"
If you want to support ath10k-based devices, you should set GLUON_ATH10K_MESH and GLUON_REGION as described in getting-started-make-variables
.
As the hostname field may now contain an arbitrary UTF-8 string, escaping must be added.
Change
<%=hostname%>
to
<%=escape(hostname)%>
Inside of URLs, urlescape
must be used instead of escape
.
Mesh interfaces are now configured in a protocol-independent way in UCI (#870)
The MAC address assignment of all mesh and WLAN interfaces has been modified to prepare for support of Ralink/Mediatek-based WLAN chips.
- Preparations for supporting the new batman-adv multicast optimizations have been made (#674, #675, #679)
- All Lua code is minified now to save some space
Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown (#94)
Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended.
The MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled (#496)
This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promicious mode is disallowed).
Inconsistent respondd API (#522)
The current API is inconsistent and will be replaced eventually. The old API will still be supported for a while.
