1 New Features

1.1 General Settings – UAPSD

U-APSD stands for Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery, an 802.11 power save mechanism
that works with WMM. When a client device is in Power Save mode (i.e. its receiver is turned off and
thus cannot receive any data frames), the AP will temporarily buffer all frames destined to the client.

1.2 VAP Configuration – remove Uplink/ Downlink 802.1p AC mapping

The configuration is removed from current version.

1.3 Reset to Default with Options

Typically, administrators can reset the system to factory default from the Web Management Interface
as below description. Now, there are some options to keep the current settings during reset process.
- Keep Network Interface Settings: in some cases, it is helpful to check this option to ensure the
original Network Interface settings remain even after a system reset-to-default.
- Keep VLAN for Management: in some cases, it is helpful to check this option to ensure the
original VLAN for Management settings remain even after a system reset-to-default.

1.4 Separate Event Log into “Event Log” and “Wireless Log”
Each entry in the Event Log represents a system event record
- Date and Time: The time and date when the event happened.
- IP Address: to indicate which LAN IP address of the system recorded this event. Note that all
events on this page are local events, so the IP address in this field is always the same. In
remote SYSLOG service however, this field will help the administrator identify which event is
from this Access Point.
- Process name: to indicate the event generated by the running instance
- Description: to display the message of each event

Each entry in the Wireless Log represents client association and WDS connection related activities.
- Date and Time: The time and date when the event happened.
- IP Address: to indicate which LAN IP address of the system recorded this event. Note that all
events on this page are local events, so the IP address in this field is always the same. In
remote SYSLOG service however, this field will help the administrator identify which event is
from this Access Point.
- Process name: to indicate the event generated by the running instance

2 Fix of KRACK WPA2 Vulnerabilities

As the recently discovered vulnerabilities in WPA2 affect all kinds of Wi-Fi client devices, 4ipnet access
points are affected by these vulnerabilities when in CPE mode (only on 4ipnet EAP210 and OWL530),
but they are not affected when in AP mode and with 802.11r disabled. Thus, if 802.11r is disabled, it is
fine to ignore these vulnerabilities.

In this version, it includes the vulnerability fix with the patch provided by Wi-Fi alliance to prevent
possible attacks.

3 Issue Fixed

3.1 CAPWAP Tunnel Establishment under NAT and Firewall

In this version, the CAPWAP mechanism between AC and AP can work purely with port 5246 and port
5247 which are defined in the CAPWAP protocol. The clients can login and access the internet through
the access points in the remote sides which establish the complete/ split tunnel.

3.2 The Proxy ARP Feature Works in Enabled VAPs

The Proxy ARP feature in each access point is able to enable in the configuration of the Advanced of
Firewall (Home > Firewall > Advanced Firewall Settings). If enabled, it is unnecessary to reboot the system.

3.3 Workaround for Successful CAPWAP Tunnel Establishment

When configuring CAPWAP tunnel, the AP will try to access the DHCP tunnel IP from AC in DATA
CHECK stage. If failed, the AP will reset the WTP so as to keep RUN and complete the tunnel
establishment.
