v4.2-RC2 is available for testing

After some months of work we would like to share with you release
candidate 2 for the upcoming WR Switch firmware v4.2. You can find the
binaries and manual in the Files section.

Here is a brief list of the most important new features and bugfixes
in this latest firmware:

  • remote monitoring through SNMP with redesigned MIB, including
    general status words about the WRS and detailed information exported
  • central dot-config configuration file that can be fetched on boot
    time from a remote server
  • 10MHz generation on clk2 output (only v3.4 hardware)
  • fixes in the Swcore, Endpoint and RTU HDL so that the switch does
    not crash anymore under high load of traffic
  • PPSi fixes to follow large offset jumps, the problem occured when
    more than 2 switches in a chain were powered in the same time
  • improved fetching initial time from the NTP server
  • webinterface improvements
  • front panel LED signalization improvements

and much more..

Please remember it’s not a stable release yet and it should be used
only in the lab tests. We encourage you to try it and report if you
experience any problems.
