New Features and Enhancements:
- mDNS gateway support: A multicast DNS (mDNS) gateway lets you discover services and applications across VLANs. An example of a service is a printer, and an example of an application is Apple TV.
- Support for additional countries or regions: All EU member countries, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Switzerland
Bug Fixes:
- Fixes the issue where the local browser user interface (UI) becomes inaccessible. The SSID is broadcasting, but after 24 hours, you cannot get a WiFi connection.
- Fixes the user-name attributes for RADIUS server authentication.
- Fixes the issue where the VLAN ID and user name are not updated on the Connected Clients page.
- Fixes various bugs.
Security Fixes:

Known Issues:
- A RADIUS MAC ACL does not work with multi-PSK and a dynamic VLAN (DVLAN).
- mDNS: A device running Windows cannot 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 might not load.
Workaround: Refresh the page in your web browser. - Captive portal authentication does not work if the captive portal and VLAN configurations for an SSID are changed simultaneously.
Workaround: Change the captive portal configuration and VLAN configuration one at a time for an SSID. - When client isolation is enabled on an SSID, clients connected to same SSID cannot reach each other even if their IP addresses were added to allowed list.
- Intel AX210 client connectivity might encounter disruptions when roaming.
- Clients with the latest iOS version might not be able to roam successfully when both WPA3 security and 802.11r roaming are enabled on the same SSID.
Workaround: Do not enable WPA3 and 802.11r roaming together. - 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 security, and try again.
