Software 3.5.1, released 2023-12-20

Improvements and bug fixes
• Chameleon modules in GN50 no longer show status "Communication failed".
• It is now possible to have multiple virtual network interfaces on the same VLAN.

• Fixed a problem that caused the GT11 to sometimes crash when Ethernet link events occurred, for example when a
cable was plugged in.
• Fixed a problem that caused the GT11 to not always boot up after being restarted.

Software 3.5, released 2023-10-20

• DHCP can now be used for the Ethernet Control port.
• Capabilities can now be set for the Ethernet Control port.
• Date and time now uses TZ database instead of POSIX.1 TZ for handling the local time. It is advisable but not necessary
to manually edit the time zone after upgrading.
• Ethernet Control port link up and link down events are now shown in the log.
• For certain configurations, errors in Simulcrypt CW provison messages no longer causes the SCG to fallback to FTA.
• Scrambling can now be enabled and disabled for Scrambling groups in the web UI.
• It is now possible to enable System interface after it has been disabled.
• GT11 now responds properly when SNMP requests time out.
• Improved stability of Simulcrypt ECMg redundancy.
• Changed Simulcrypt EMMg connection behavior to cope with certain clients.
• It is now possible to power off a module in the base unit even when the module is in a faulty state.
