History
1. According to Unifys requirements, we
add/enhance four futures.
Please reference below description for
the detail information.
1 There are 1 change in this version,
please reference below description for
the detail information.
1. There are 3 change in this version,
please reference below description for
the detail information.
1. There are 4 change in this version,
please reference below description for
the detail information.
1. To synchronize WDS module for new
WDS solution.
2. Resolved the web display problem.
3. Resolved CLI buffer overflow problem.
4. Resolved WDS with LLDP problem.
To meet customers requirement immediately,
we drop this temporal version supporting 11a
regulation domain in Russia based on Sportons
advice only without formal announcement from
sales. After getting formal announcement about
11a regulation domain in Russia from sales, we
would release one formal release version for this
enhancement.
Notes: Due to it is an outdoor production,
therefore, in Russia; the available channels
in 11a only are 132, 136, and 140 in UNII2 extended band. UNII-1 band should be not
open for outdoor production. UNII-2 band is
limited to DFS issue, so, this band is not open
for selection.

Upgrade Procedure:
l
l

The runtime image can be upgraded by normal upgrade procedure CLI /Telnet command copy ftp/tftp file,
WEB user interface or SNMP user interface.
The compatible boot code version is v2.1.6 or higher.

v4.3.4.6 Changes and Fixed bugs:

l

Add/enhance four features based on v4.3.4.5.

n
Add more information of Show Station.
n
Add the hidden command for ant-gain-reduction
n
Remove 8/12/16 channels in JP
n
Transmit Retry Times at wireless

Please refer to the User Guide of four features for Unify.pdf to get information in detail.

v4.3.4.5 Changes and Fixed bugs:

l

Problem: STP cause WDK link lost.

n
Solution: we remove the legacy WDS design to avoid incorrect usage for STP frame.

v4.3.4.4 Changes and Fixed bugs:

l

Problem: WA6202A: Some 11a channels are missing using country code CZ and SK.

n
Solution: To adjust CZ and SK regulation domain from ETSI1 to ETSI3
Problem: when we set channel 149 with following condition (antenna id as 0x100 and US domain), transmit power
will reduce as 0
n
Solution: we reduce the TX power as 10 dBm
Problem: when WDS run multicase via WDS link, the date rate only support 6 Mbps.
n
Solution: we adjust the multicast data rate from 6 to 24 Mbps in radio A, and 5.5 to 24 Mbps in radio G.

v4.3.4.3 Changes and Fixed bugs:

l
l
l
l

Problem: Base on customer requirement, we provide a non-exist country Z9 to avoid DFS effect.
n
Solution: We increase non-exist regulation domain ETSID, and non-exist country Z9 to support this
requirement.
Problem: Base on customer requirement, we remove the warning message for RSSI initiation error.
n
Solution: We remove this warning from system.
Problem: When we set WDS with WPA2-PSK setting, the RSN payload will not fill in correct.
n
Solution: To disable the wme ie.
Problem: when we set channel 149 in US, Tx will decrease to zero after we reboot the system.
n
Solution: we reduce the TX power as 14.5.

v4.3.4.2 Changes and Fixed bugs:

l
l
l
l

We synchronize WDS module for new WDS solution, include auto channel synchronize, and DFS mechanism and
simulation function in CLI.
When we login the device via web UI, there are one non-exist web page will display on the web page. We already
remove this web page.
Because we increase the number of supported antenna, so that when we go to the interface layer via CLI, all of
antenna information will be loaded in one buffer. And this buffer will have the risk of buffer overflow. We already fix
this bug.
We synchronize the LLDP patch code from the bridge module in WA6202-38. This patch can avoid broken risk of
WDS link when switch issue LLDP packet.

v4.3.4.1-RU Changes and Fixed bugs:

l
