Changelog
LLDP Neighbors
- Added a per-device view showing local and remote ports, neighbor information, and whether a neighbor is already in the project.
- Refresh the view manually or at a selected interval, and export neighbor information to CSV. Exports are also added to the project attachments.
Physical Network and FRNT
- The Physical Network view now displays detected MRP rings alongside FRNT rings.
- The FRNT view can detect and edit partial rings, change a ring's focal point, and uses the same ring detection as the topology.
Firewall
- Added support for custom IANA protocol numbers in firewall rules.
- Added prerouting rules for DSCP marking on devices running WeOS 5.30 or later.
Alarms and Routing
- Added Storm Detection and Link Health alarm configuration for supported WeOS 5 devices.
- Added VRRP startup delay configuration for devices running WeOS 4.35 or later.
- Static routing now offers a list of the device's interfaces instead of requiring an interface name to be typed.
Firmware and Device Support
- When a firmware upgrade requires TFTP, the wizard now asks for the TFTP server IP address before continuing.
- Improved recognition of NeOS versions, software classes, and firmware packages, including the use of appropriate default credentials.
- Implicit MRP licenses are now recognized on NeOS devices.
Device List and User Interface
- Added a Serial Number column to the Device List.
- Application Settings now opens as a dockable tab and is available from the navigation panel.
- Moved the navigation search field to the top of the panel.
- Input validation messages are displayed when a field is focused or hovered.
- Backup operations now show outcome notifications, including successful, failed, and partially successful backups.
- Navigation entries indicate when a view is unavailable because of licensing.
- Empty dock panes collapse and are recreated when needed.
- Default firmware folder and external editor settings now depend on the operating system.
- Reduced the application size by replacing a dependency.
Bugfixes
- Fixed an issue where refreshing an unreachable device could apply stale IP configuration data.
- Improved IP configuration and HTTPS compatibility on Linux, including connections to older devices.
- DHCP can now be selected immediately in the network interface editor.
- SNMP port and timeout settings are now correctly retained and shown in Discovery and Device Access.
- Corrected Apply button behavior in Firmware Upgrade and multiple configuration views.
- Fixed an issue that could prevent a WeOS 4 bootloader upgrade when the selected firmware version was already installed.
- Corrected firmware upgrade step calculation for versions with suffixes.
- Fixed loading firewall settings from older project files.
- Fixed diagnostics graphs stopping their time axis after zooming.
- Fixed unexpectedly wide Device List columns after reloading and added horizontal scrolling for wide VLAN lists.
- Fixed the display of down or partially down aggregate links and port-label visibility for newly added connections in the Physical Network view.
- Prevented LLDP refreshes from unnecessarily overwriting previously known information.
- Corrected Merlin SNMP handling for chassis, model, and firmware information.
- Device families are no longer displayed as model names when a device does not report a model.
- Improved handling of SNMP traps with missing optional fields and parsing of device JSON and alarm data.
- Opening SSH access no longer crashes when an SSH client is not installed.
- Fixed delivery of the offline user guide and changelog PDFs, and inclusion of log files in support files for vendor-branded versions.
