ExitLane v0.2.0-beta.3
Pre-releaseExitLane 0.2.0-beta.3 release notes
Summary
Beta.3 adds a managed path for the official Ookla Speedtest CLI and keeps installation and network
measurement as two distinct administrator actions. It is a prerelease for trusted management
networks; it is not an automatic-update channel and does not make ExitLane suitable for public
Internet exposure.
What changed
- On Debian 13
amd64, an authenticated administrator can explicitly install exactly one reviewed
official Ookla Debian artifact after confirming the package change, personal non-commercial
eligibility, license/EULA acceptance, and privacy/GDPR terms. - The installer uses the Packagecloud download endpoint, verifies the pinned SHA-256, shares the
ExitLane package-operation lock, and validates the installed executable's exact package ownership
and version. It does not run a repository script or retain a repository or signing key. - A successful installation never runs Speedtest. Each measurement requires a new deliberate
selection and all terms plus bandwidth confirmations, and only one measurement may run at once. - The Diagnostics UI presents accessible installation state, reload-safe polling, translated stable
errors, and external terms links with safe new-tab attributes.
Operator notes and limitations
Ookla's terms govern use of its CLI. ExitLane supports this managed path only for personal,
non-commercial use unless the operator has separate suitable permission. The proprietary package is
pinned and has no automatic updates; review a new artifact and digest before any future change.
After merge and all release gates pass, beta.3 appliance QA verifies the missing-tool UI and
installs the pinned package on the designated test appliance 172.16.130.81 exclusively through
the managed confirmation flow. It then verifies installation status and CLI availability, with
proof that no Speedtest measurement is invoked. No real Speedtest is permitted.
