Important Notice

Privacy Agreement

• After updating the firmware to QSS (QSS Pro) 4.4.2, a Privacy Agreement window will appear upon first login. Please review and accept the agreement to continue.

DHCP Snooping / DAI with MC-LAG

• DHCP Snooping and Dynamic ARP Inspection (DAI) are not intended to be used simultaneously with MC-LAG. Enabling these features in an MC-LAG environment may result in unexpected traffic forwarding behavior.
• Dashboard default as closed since QSS v4.4.2

New Features

Support for Command Line Interface (CLI)

• This update introduces a Command-Line Interface, allowing users to configure and manage the switch directly through text-based commands. User can access the CLI via SSH port 22 or through the console.

DHCPv4 Snooping

• This update adds DHCPv4 Snooping, a security feature that monitors DHCP traffic to prevent unauthorized DHCP servers from distributing invalid IP addresses. By classifying ports as trusted or untrusted, it protect the network against attacks such as DHCP spoofing.

IP Source Guard (IPSG)

• This update adds IP Source Guard, a security feature that restricts IP traffic on untrusted ports by filtering packets based on the DHCP Snooping binding table. Only traffic with a matching source IP and MAC address is permitted, preventing IP spoofing attacks on the network.

Dynamic ARP Inspection (DAI)

• This update adds Dynamic ARP Inspection, a security feature that validates ARP packets against the DHCP Snooping binding table. It intercepts and discards ARP packets with invalid IP-to-MAC address bindings, protecting the network against ARP spoofing and man-in-the-middle attacks.

Support for Secure Shell (SSH)

• This update adds SSH access support, allowing administrators to securely manage the switch remotely via encrypted command-line sessions. User can SSH in via the standard port 22.

DHCP Auto Configuration

• This update adds DHCP Auto Configuration, allowing the switch to automatically download and apply its configuration file from a DHCP server during startup. This simplifies large-scale deployments by enabling centralized, zero-touch provisioning of switch settings.

IEEE 802.1X Port-Based Network Access Control

• This update adds 802.1X authentication, enabling port-based access control that requires users to authenticate before gaining network access. Working with a RADIUS server, it ensures only authorized devices can connect to the switch, enhancing network security.

Enhancement

Enhanced ADRA NDR Support

• Enhanced ADRA NDR integration with dedicated VLAN support for improved network detection and response functionality.

UI Enhancement

• Optimized the user interface with navigation style updates for improved clarity and consistency.

Fixed Issues

• Improved MC-LAG stability and reliability.
• Improved PoE stability and user experience.

Belangrijke mededeling

Privacyovereenkomst

• Na het bijwerken van de firmware naar QSS (QSS Pro) 4.4.2 verschijnt er bij de eerste aanmelding een venster met de privacyovereenkomst. Lees de overeenkomst door en accepteer deze om verder te gaan.

DHCP Snooping en Dynamic ARP Inspection (DAI) zijn niet bedoeld om gelijktijdig met MC-LAG te worden gebruikt. Het inschakelen van deze functies in een MC-LAG-omgeving kan leiden tot onverwacht gedrag bij het doorsturen van verkeer.

• Dashboard is standaard gesloten sinds QSS v4.4.2

Nieuwe functies

DHCP-automatische configuratie

• Deze update voegt DHCP Auto Configuration toe, waardoor de switch tijdens het opstarten automatisch het configuratiebestand van een DHCP-server kan downloaden en toepassen. Dit vereenvoudigt grootschalige implementaties doordat gecentraliseerde, volledig geautomatiseerde configuratie van switchinstellingen mogelijk wordt.

Verbetering

Verbeterde ADRA NDR-ondersteuning

• Verbeterde ADRA NDR-integratie met speciale VLAN-ondersteuning voor betere netwerkdetectie- en responsfunctionaliteit.

UI-verbetering

• De gebruikersinterface is geoptimaliseerd met updates van de navigatiestijl voor meer duidelijkheid en consistentie.

Opgeloste problemen

• Verbeterde stabiliteit en betrouwbaarheid van MC-LAG.
• Verbeterde PoE-stabiliteit en gebruikerservaring.
