Gluon 2020.1.1
==============
This is the first service release for the Gluon 2020.1.x line, fixing regressions reported by
the community.
Bugfixes
--------
- Fixed non-working LEDs on TP-Link Archer C5 v1 and Archer C7 v2 after an upgrade to Gluon 2020.1.
- Fixed an issue which leads to AVM FRITZ!WLAN Repeater 450E devices being stuck in failsafe mode
ater an upgrade to Gluon 2020.1.
Other changes
-------------
- Linux kernel has been updated to 4.14.171
Known issues
------------
- Out of memory situations with high client count on ath9k.
(`#1768 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1768>`_)
- The integration of the BATMAN_V routing algorithm is incomplete.
- | Mesh neighbors don't appear on the status page. (`#1726 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1726>`_)
| Many tools have the BATMAN_IV metric hardcoded, these need to be updated to account for the new throughput
| metric.
- | Throughput values are not correctly acquired for different interface types.
| (`#1728 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1728>`_)
| This affects virtual interface types like bridges and VXLAN.
- 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 especially 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.
- High chance of ending in a soft-bricked state for Ubiquiti EdgeRouter-X. Workaround is to
repeat initial installation using the serial console. (`#1937 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1937>`_)
