→Cloud-based hotspot: Destinations in RFC1918 networks can be selectively
enabled.
Bugfixes / improvements
→When MLO was active, the ARC scan did not work on access points with Wi-Fi
7 support (LANCOM LW-700, LX-7200, LX-7300, LX-7400, and LX-7500).
Furthermore, after performing the ARC scan, no more Wi-Fi was broadcast.
→If a connected USB dongle failed, communication with the USB dongle was
not possible even after switching the power supply for the USB port off and on
again.
→Access points with external Wi-Fi antennas interpreted the value transmitted
by the WLAN controller for the standard antenna gain as 0, instead of using
the standard antenna gain of the supplied rod antennas.
→In rare cases, the power LED on the access point lit up yellow instead of green
when PoE negotiation was performed via LLDP. This was purely a display error.
Performance was not affected.
→A configured bandwidth limitation (client Rx/Tx limit) was not applied when
working with a static VLAN in the scenario.
→When using the LMC hotspot with static VLANs, if the access point received
a packet that was too large and had to be fragmented, only the first fragment
was transmitted and the other fragments were discarded. This resulted in
severely restricted communication.
→LLDP negotiation for PoE did not function correctly with HPE Aruba switches
on the LANCOM LX-7300 and LX-7500 access points. As a result, the access
points received insufficient power from the switch and did not broadcast any
SSID(s)
→The program libraries libpcap, apr (Apache Portable Runtime), and libxml2
have been updated to fix security vulnerabilities described in the following
CVE reports:
• libpcap: CVE-2023-7256, CVE-2024-8006
• apr: CVE-2022-24963, CVE-2022-28331, CVE-2021-35940
• libxml2: CVE-2024-25062
→Transmit power reduction configured in the WLAN controller was only active
when the antenna gain mode was set to ‘custom’. Transmit power reduction is
now active regardless of the antenna gain mode setting
