Enhancements:
- Option to add subnet mask and DHCP lease time configuration in NAT mode SSID configuration.
- Improved client connection/disconnection alarm notifications.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixes various issues in the External Captive Portal feature.
- Fixes an issue where the AP starts operating on 802.3af power even when powered by an 802.3at or 802.3bt switch.
- Fixes an issue where the captive portal splash page is not displayed when a client connects to a Captive portal SSID with Client Isolation feature enabled.
- Fixes an issue where the captive portal splash page does not display when a client connects to an SSID using WPA2 Enterprise security.
- Fixes an issue where active user sessions are not logged out when location-wide device credentials change.
- Fixes the issue where sometimes AP fails to get IP address when multiple SSID with profile VLAN are created one after another.
- Adds system stability improvements.
Known Issues:
- Changes to a NAT SSID configuration can take 2 to 3 minutes to apply.
Workaround: Please wait at least 3 minutes before connecting any clients.
- Facebook Wi-Fi authentication does not work because Facebook has discontinued the support for this feature.
Workaround: Use the Instant Captive Portal feature or the basic Captive Portal feature.
- The captive portal splash page might display the error message "ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS" while connecting to a captive portal that is enabled on an SSID.
Workaround: Clear the browser cache.
- 802.11r roaming does not work between an AP that runs firmware version 10.5.0.x and another AP that runs an older firmware version at the same Insight network location.
Workaround: Upgrade all APs at an Insight network location to the latest firmware version.
- The AP stops responding after you first change or enable an Instant Captive Portal and then change or enable a dynamic VLAN (DVLAN) configuration, or the other way around.
Workaround: After enabling the Instant Captive Portal, wait a few minutes before you enable the DVLAN configuration. Or, after enabling the DVLAN configuration, wait a few minutes before you enable the Instant Captive Portal.
- Clients connected to a captive portal that is configured on an SSID might not see the splash page for authentication when the VLAN of the SSID is the same as the management VLAN, a VLAN that is configured as a DVLAN, or a VLAN that has a multi-Pre-Shared Key (multi-PSK) configured.
Workaround: For the SSID on which the captive portal is configured, use the default VLAN or a unique VLAN that is not used as the management VLAN, that is not a DVLAN, or that does not use MPSK.
- A RADIUS based MAC ACL does not work with multi-PSK and DVLAN.
- mDNS: A device running Windows might not discover certain printers.
Workaround: Manually add the IP address of the printer on the Windows device.
- mDNS: Even though Apple AirPlay services are discoverable, they might not be accessible.
- Your web browser might not redirect automatically to the login page after a firmware upgrade.
Workaround: Refresh the page in your web browser.
- Radio information on the AP Dashboard page might not be displayed properly.
Workaround: Refresh the page in your web browser.
- Captive portal authentication does not work if you simultaneously change the captive portal and the VLAN configuration for an SSID.
Workaround: Change either the captive portal configuration or the VLAN configuration for an SSID and save the changes. Then go back to the SSID and make the other configuration changes.
- When client isolation is enabled for an SSID, clients that are connected to this SSID cannot reach each other even if their IP addresses are added to the allowed list.
- Clients that use the Intel AX210 might encounter disruptions when roaming.
- Video streaming to multiple clients does not work properly if there are more than eight clients in a single multicast group.
- If clients experience connectivity issues on the higher band channels of the 5 GHz radio and subsequently switch to the 2.4 GHz radio, they might experience lower throughput.
Workaround: Configure lower band channels on the 5 GHz radio.
- Some newer IoT devices might experience issues connecting to the AP.
Workaround: Upgrade the IoT devices to the latest driver version and try again. If security is set to WPA3 or WPA2/WPA3 mixed mode, change it to WPA2 mode, and try again.
