Bug fixes:
- Fixed the problem that device does not handle MSTP packets when its Spanning Tree configuration is set to RSTP.
Limitations:
-
When “Limited Dynamic Lock” is enabled and the violation action is to shutdown the port, the port will only shutdown if it receives packet with MAC address that has not been learned by other secured port. If MAC address is already learned by other port with security also enabled, the packet will be discarded. There is there is no security vulnerability as packets from unsecured MAC addresses will never be forwarded.
-
Changing the default PVID would automatically remove the port from VLAN 1
Known Issues:
-
When configuring IP ACL rule, system does not reject source address to be multicast address and accepts 0.0.0.0 masking.
Workaround: Please avoid entering incorrect MAC address.
-
Refreshing the page (Ctrl+F5) will always bring you back to the first page, which is the System Information page.
Workaround: Please manually navigate to the desired page again.
-
When specify IPv6 ACL rule, the permit all (permit any any) rule would only forward the packet with IP header. As a result, the implicit “deny all” rule will drop all non-IP packets like ARP.
Workaround: Use MAC ACL rule that permits all (permit any any) in conjunction with IPv6 ACL.
Warnings:
- Please make sure the firmware version of your FS728TP smart switch is running with version 3.0.0.22 before upgrading it to version 5.0.0.7. Otherwise, the device will become inoperable.
- If your device is running with V1.x.x.x firmware, please refer to the upgrade instruction for version 3.0.0.22.
- Please go to Maintenance->Download to upgrade the boot code to version 1.0.0.5 first before upgrading the firmware to version 5.0.0.7

The procedure for upgrading the device to the interim image is the same as the regular firmware upgrade. It can be downloaded via a TFTP server or Smartwizard Discovery utility.
- Start Smartwizard Discovery Utility, (included on the CD coming with your Smart Switch). If it is not installed, do so now, before continuing.
- In Smartwizard Discovery window, click Discover to find your Smart Switch. The switch will be listed in the device list table once found. (Note: Smartwizard Discovery uses broadcast packets to find Smart Switches, which means it can only find Smart Switches in the same routing domain.)
- Highlight the Smart Switch to upgrade and click Firmware Upgrade.
- Follow the screen prompts to complete the upgrade. Smartwizard Discovery will report a successful completion at the end.
