April 2024 Minor Appliance Release Notes

Abnormal Disconnect Messages limited to Clients

Before this release, both the appliances that are acting as the gateway server and the edge node client would send abnormal disconnect events. This change limits abnormal disconnect messages to only be sent from the client to avoid excessive alert notifications on the gateway server.

VPN Communication with Out-of-date Peers

A recently release version of the appliance introduced an unexpected change that caused out-of-date clients, running versions from early 2021 or older, to receive VPN packets they could not process. This release resolves this issue to restore backwards compatibility. It is still highly recommended devices be upgraded to the latest release on a regular basis.

Other Fixes and Changes

• The reboot service will not respond allowing portal notification if the request fails.
• Resolves an issue that prevented the Trustgrid SNMP OID from providing VPN stats if attached to a VLAN interface.
• Fixes an issue that sometimes causes client peers to be removed from a gateway’s data plane panel table on disconnect and not be added back when they reconnect.
• Resolves an issue related to VPN traffic to agent-based nodes running in a container.
• Resolves an issue that caused an error in the logs for some DNS requests generated by containers running on the appliance.
