Changes

• Upgrade Linux kernel to 6.12.18 (LTS)

  copying factory-config to running-config. Bogus error, the
  latter is not really a file
• Fix #977: "Operation not permitted" when saving running-config to
  startup-config (harmless warning but annoying and concerning)

Infix v25.01.0

Note

This release contains breaking changes in the configuration file
syntax for DHCP clients. Specifically DHCP options with value,
i.e., the syntax for sending a hexadecimal value now require hex
prefix before a string of colon-separated pairs of hex values.

Changes

• Upgrade Linux kernel to 6.12.11 (LTS)
• Upgrade Buildroot to 2024.02.10 (LTS)
• Upgrade FRR from 9.1.2 to 9.1.3
• Add support for configuring SSH server, issue #441. As a result,
  both SSH and NETCONF now use the same host key in factory-config
• Add operational support for reading DNS resolver info, issue #510
• Add operational support for NTP client, issue #510
• Add support for more mDNS settings: allow/deny interfaces, acting
  as "reflector" and filtering of reflected services. Issue #678
• Add DHCPv4 server support, multiple subnets with static hosts and
  DHCP options on global, subnet, or host level, issue #703.
  Contributed by MINEx Networks
  • DHCP client options aligned with DHCP server, startup-config
    files with old syntax are automatically migrated
• Breaking change in DHCP client options with value. Hexadecimal
  values must now be formatted as { "hex": "c0:ff:ee" } (JSON)
• Add documentation on management via SSH, Web (RESTCONF, Web
  Console), and Console Port, issue #787
• Add documentation of DNS client use and configuration, issue #798
• Add support for changing boot order for the system with an RPC,
  including support for reading boot order from operational datastore
• Add support for GRE/GRETAP tunnels
• Add support for STP/RSTP on bridges
• Add support for VXLAN tunnels
• Add support for configuring global LLDP message-tx-interval

Fixes

• Fix #777: Authorized SSH key not applied to startup-config
• Fix #829: Avahi (mDNS responder) not starting properly on switches
  with many ports (>10). This led to a review of sysctl:
  • New for IPv4:
    • Adjust IGMP max memberships: 20 -> 1000
    • Use neighbor information on nexthop selection
    • Use inbound interface address on ICMP errors
    • Ignore routes with link down
    • Disable rp_filter
    • ARP settings have been changed to better fit routers, i.e.,
      systems with multiple interfaces:
      • Always use best local address when sending ARP
      • Only reply to ARP if target IP is on the inbound interface
      • Generate ARP requests when device is brought up or HW address changes
  • New for IPv6:
    • Keep static global addresses on link down
    • Ignore routes with link down
• Fix #861: Fix error when running 251+ reconfigurations in test-mode
• Fix #869: Setup of bridges is now more robust
• Fix #899: DHCP client with client-id does not work
• Minor cleanup of Networking Guide
• Fix memory leaks in confd
