Mobile browser support: the web UI does not work correctly on mobile browsers yet. If you switch your mobile browser to “request desktop site” (or equivalent setting) you may have better results. ? Login: you will get a “default password” warning message any time you type the default password into the password field and attempt to log in, even if the unit’s password is not actually set to default. ? Performance Tab: occasionally when you expand the accordions (“Active Connection”, “Codec Channel”, “CrossLock”, “CrossLock Settings”), the table to select the item you wish to view may not have an item selected by default (e.g. no channel selected, no CrossLock session selected). This means some of the statistics graphs or controls may not be shown until you click an item in the table. ? Audio Tab: the audio meters only show dbFS values, and the digital meters do not have a dB scale on them. ? Audio Tab: the audio meters are not configurable as they were in the earlier Flash GUI. On some constrained networks this may cause a problem as a large amount of data must be sent from the unit to the web browser to show the meters. ? Profile Manager: when adding a new profile or copying an existing profile, the new profile will be created but not automatically selected in the profile list on the left. ? Profile Manager: if you change the name of a profile, it will properly change in the list on the left, but may not change in the “Profile Settings” pane in the middle until you select a different profile and re-select the one you just renamed. ? Profile Manager: if you change other settings in the profile, the updated setting values may not reflect in the middle “Profile Settings” pane until you select a different profile and re-select the one you were editing. ? Profile Manager: if you have an “advanced” item selected in the middle pane, but turn off the “advanced” toggle, the right pane will still show the editor for that advanced value and changes can still be made. ? System Settings: values may be quite slow to update on-screen on older hardware (e.g. 2USB), and no visual indicator is currently shown while the system is busy updating the value. ? Network Manager: several important functions are missing in the Network Manager, including device status, and the ability to apply changed settings to an adapter. Basic settings do work, however. 4.3p6 * re-add driver for modern Wifi dongles to AR * Remove logging function from profile editor (caused audio issues on BL2) * Upgrade HTML5 interface to feature complete (still experimental) 4.3p9 * netmgr: fix issue with unit name updates from application side broken * access: modify address presentation for crosslock peers * netmgr: omit cl stats on cl connections that are in MTU/quiescent phase 4.5 * HTML5 is Default Web UI * HTML5: enabled scrolling function for remotes list * HTML5: fix displayed node id to use instance id if present * HTML5: rename RTP to Standard RTP * HTML5: revamp details dialog adding a few things like unit name/type/etc., add copy to clipboard to all ports * always show "use crosslock" peer option to workaround issue where it's not present sometimes * show more server port numbers * fix default port assignments for rtp ports 4.5-p2 * show system mac addr/ID in About view, as well as device mac addr on first tab of netmgr config for each device * remove input validators in switchboard ID fields * allow the user to directly specify non-default crosslock ports via prefix on switchboard ID * correct issue with broken flash UI "/flash" * restore 6014 default for sip rtp port on single instance codecs * add default values for legacy peer bools * remove wayward debugging diagnostic message * always include use_xlock parameter when building peer record, the legacy config engine will use this further downstream and gets all confused if it's missing * sip: allow matching against contact address as well as registered address *correct support for comrex intl'l modem 4.5-p6 * fix for AT&T support on new telit modem * more tolerant of user input variation on switchboard ids * always allow connection attempts to predicted busy units (useful when using stale cached switchboard data) * allow alternate IP addresses specified in static switchboard table * performance optimizations for larger switchboard contact lists * prevent lockup when deleting static switchboard peer * prevent the most egregious forms of port conflict misconfiguration * fix for static switchboard with alternate crosslock port * quectel modem support * persistent local cache of switchboard info * fixes for netmgr robustness when crosslock is used * system random number generator fixes for improved boot time and security v4.5-p7 * restores compatibility to use Combined Comrex Connect Modems with Verizon sims(portables) * allow static and dynamic switchboard records to coexist * change ethernet link mode option to only appear for certain ethernet drivers, currently cpsw only (BL2 onboard ethernet) * fix for missing units in crosslock always connect option list * fix for spontaneous temporary crosslock disconnects when using one-directional permissions via switchboard (i.e. unit A present in unit B contact list but not the reverse) * improvements to handling of concurrent switchboard and static peer use * attempt to fix missing link mode issue on bl2 * use local port number when formulating remote addresses if the address is a loopback address. * expand configuration partition on multirack * limit options on peer selection lists to non-categorized peers v4.5-p8 (issues with audible disruption when using large switchboard contact lists on BL2) * fix allocation bug in FLAC plugin * change from 100Hz to 1kHz system timer on BL2 * standardize on PI mutexes (remove old priority boosting method) * fix some missing initialization sequences on PI mutexes * raise encoder rt priority to match the decoder to avoid encoder starvation * reduce contention time on some PI locks at the peer level * refactor of legacy config translation layer: create a context object that holds system lists as they are requested by various users, and caches them for subsequent use.
