Gluon 2021.1.1
==============
Important notes
---------------
Upgrades to v2021.1 and later releases are only supported from releases v2018.2 and later. This is due to migrations that have been removed to simplify maintenance.
Added hardware support

- Mi Router 4A (100M Edition)
Bugfixes
--------
- Missing bandwith limit settings resulted in a respondd crash for v2021.1.
- The Tunneldigger VPN provider was not registered with the Gluon VPN backend, resulting in broken Tunneldigger configurations.
- Disabling Radio interfaces in v2021.1 could lead to nullpointer dereferences in the respondd airtime module, as the survey returns no data in this case.
Known issues
------------
* Upgrading EdgeRouter-X from versions before v2020.1.x may lead to a soft-bricked state due to bad blocks on the NAND flash which the NAND driver before this release does not handle well.
(`#1937 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1937>`_)
* The integration of the BATMAN_V routing algorithm is incomplete.
- Mesh neighbors don't appear on the status page. (`#1726 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1726>`_)
Many tools have the BATMAN_IV metric hardcoded, these need to be updated to account for the new throughput
metric.
- Throughput values are not correctly acquired for different interface types.
(`#1728 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1728>`_)
This affects virtual interface types like bridges and VXLAN.
* Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown
(`#94 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/94>`_)
Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended.
* In configurations without VXLAN, the MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled
(`#496 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/496>`_)
This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promiscuous mode is disallowed).
