Note:
- If updating from firmware version 1.0.0.6 or earlier, then this upgrade will involve a chipset driver update which will take between 8 and 10 minutes. Do not interrupt the upgrade process during this time. The switch will reboot automatically after the upgrade process is completed.
- After downloading FW v1.0.1.1 to the switch, regardless of the current password, switch’s password will reset to the default one. This helps address bug #2 in the Bug Fixes section.
New Features and Modification:
- The default admin password must be changed to a unique password for the first login.
- NSDP (System > Management > Discovery and Management) is now separated into NSDP Discovery and NSDP Management. NSDP Discovery is enabled and NSDP Management is disabled by default.
Security Fixes:
- PSV-2018-0538
- PSV-2018-0542
- PSV-2018-0612
Bug Fixes:
- When a loop was detected, loop prevention shut down the port forever. Now the switch can recover the port after the loop is removed.
- We introduce a new encryption algorithm for the password to ensure the password saved in the configuration file is more secure.
