  • The latest firmware releases removed some alerts, which were in the product. The next alert to be removed is the "Central Managed" alert, which is currently static. All other alerts are removable by "resolving the situation". Deletion/acknolowdiging is something, which requires are complete overhowl of the control center alert system, which is not planned soon. 

    The removal of "XG" is something valid for future releases. Not planned yet. 

    Login notification is currently possible for CFR, if you want to get a report per day of who logged in and when. But not for the "instant notification". This is on the backlog.

  • I am running two XG125 in an active/passive-HA and got some issues with/after the upgrade:

    - the failover during the upgrade-process happened way to early. The new primary took another minute or two to complete initialization and the admin interface to be available.

    - Startup takes forever. about 7-10 Minutes for each node.

    - For some reason TuneIn Radio doesn't work as long as the Firewalls are in a HA-Configuration. Everything is fine in Standalone.

  • I experienced the slow surfing that  wrote about as well. Most of the time is spent on content delivery, but it seems highly dependend on concurrency. e.g if only a single web page with a moderate number of external resources is loaded, delivery times are in the low milliseconds, but as soon as i try to load multiple pages at once everything slows to a crawl.

  • Did you create a support ID? Could you share it please?

  • I am using a home license as this is my private home setup. My understanding was that i couldn't open support tickets with this license type. I might get another xg125 for now to make sure the second node isn't busted, since the problems all disappear as soon as i revert the setup to standalone operation on the primary node.
