Bugfixes
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixes a bug in the batman-adv respondd module that caused duplicate
|
|
|
|
|
IPv6 addresses in nodeinfo replies (`#1615 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1615>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This was visible on the status page and several map implementations.
|
|
|
|
|
The new implementation uses netlink instead of parsing `/proc/net/if_inet6`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixes a localization issue in gluon-config-mode-geo-location which
|
|
|
|
|
resulted in a partial translation of the wizard's location section
|
|
|
|
|
text. (`#1611 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1611>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixes the display of the improved memory usage estimation in gluon-status-page
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This change was actually already merged in time for v2018.2 but the
|
|
|
|
|
JavaScript was not rebuilt.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixes automatic updates for several devices by adding and updating
|
|
|
|
|
the autoupdater image names
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This affects the following devices:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* GL.iNet GL-AR150,
|
|
|
|
|
* GL.iNet GL-AR300M
|
|
|
|
|
* GL.iNet GL-AR750
|
|
|
|
|
* Raspberry Pi Model B+ Rev 1.2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixes the primary MAC address selection for Unifi AC
|
|
|
|
|
Lite/Mesh/Pro/Mesh Pro (`#1629 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1629>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixes low data rate selection for multicast and management frames on
|
|
|
|
|
ath10k and ath10k-ct (`#1644 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/1644>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A patchset has been backported that notifies these drivers of requested data rate changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixes the data rate selection in ath10k and ath10k-ct when no
|
|
|
|
|
`mcast_rate` is configured (`#1657 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/1657>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Previously a missing mcast_rate could result in broken 5 GHz connectivity

New features
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Scheduled domain switch
|
|
|
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gluon has support for multiple domains since its v2018.1 release.
|
|
|
|
|
The scheduled domain switch allows for reliable migrations between
|
|
|
|
|
domains at a preconfigured time.
|
|
|
|
|
This can be useful for communities that, among other things, plan to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* migrate between IBSS and 802.11s
|
|
|
|
|
* activate VXLAN encapsulation on wired mesh links
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Improved frequency band distribution of dual-band radios
|
|
|
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A new algorithm that improves the distribution of dual-band radios was
|
|
|
|
|
added. They will now be evenly distributed between the 2.4 and 5 GHz
|
|
|
|
|
band, with a preference towards 2.4 GHz.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a device has only a single dual-band radio, like the AVM FRITZ!WLAN
|
|
|
|
|
Repeater 300E, it will be configured for 2.4 GHz.
|
|

Known issues
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are
|
|
|
|
|
unknown (`#94 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/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 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/496>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected
|
|
|
|
|
(like VMware when promiscuous mode is disallowed).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Inconsistent respondd API
|
|
|
|
|
(`#522 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/522>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The current API is inconsistent and will be replaced eventually. The old API
|
|
|
|
|
will still be supported for a while.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Frequent reboots due to out-of-memory or high load due to memory pressure on
|
|
|
|
|
weak hardware specially in larger meshes
|
|
|
|
|
(`#1243 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1243>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optimizations in Gluon 2018.1 have significantly improved memory usage.
|
|
|
|
|
There are still known bugs leading to unreasonably high load that we hope to
|
|
|
|
|
solve in future releases.
