Enhancements
Networking
- Advanced VLAN and Switch Configuration: Adds support for the simultaneous use of Switch Network Instances (with access/trunk ports) and VLAN sub-interfaces (for management or Local NIs) on the same physical port.
- WiFi Reliability: Improves WiFi adapter handling by ensuring EVE-OS waits for the WLAN adapter to be fully unblocked before bringing up the interface. This prevents setup failures (for example, wlan0 staying down) when toggling WiFi between disabled and enabled states.
- IPv6 and Proxy Support for TUI: The Text-based User Interface (TUI) now correctly displays IPv6 addresses and supports manual proxy configurations for network interfaces.
Diagnostics and Troubleshooting
- Local Console Diagnostics: Adds a new collect-info command to Edge Sync (formerly Local Operator Console (LOC)). This command allows for collection and upload of diagnostic tarballs directly from the node.
- Configurable Diagnostic Endpoints: Remote endpoints used to assess connectivity when the controller is unreachable are now configurable via new properties (diag.probe.remote.http.endpoint and diag.probe.remote.https.endpoint).
Fixes (resolutions to customer reported bugs)
- System and Upgrade Reliability: Improves the reliability of the EVE-OS upgrade process. This fix prevents stale checkpoints that could lead to unnecessary image downloads or, in some cases, an unintended downgrade after a system reboot.
- Storage Monitoring: Fixes an issue in the edge node's Storage tab where the S.M.A.R.T. info report displayed an incorrect value in the thres (threshold) column for physical storage devices.
- Hardware and Security: Resolves an issue with TPM (Trusted Platform Module) quote requests by adding validation for the nonce length. This prevents potential tpm2.Quote failures.
-
Logging Service: Fixes a bug in the newlogd service where newly applied logging settings were not correctly applied to some log entries.
Performance Improvements
-
Edge View: Optimizes Edge View connectivity by reducing the network keepalive interval.
