Small change in hostname, can't have a . in the hostname and a few other small
-
on the old versions, I was able to have a . in the host name,
- like router1.location
and then the second line had the domain name. when updating, it retains the router1.location, but upon saving, it comes up with an error.
Not a big deal, but figured I would mention it.
-
So far 2.2 looks good. I had some issues with it crashing, but i think that was a bad piece of ram, I changed it out and it's been fine since.
-
Another issue I actually noticed was when there is no IPv6 address assigned, and you reassign the interface, it locks my out of the GUI. There's an error on screen about IPV6 removing em0 from the LAGG group. (don't remember the rest). Disabling IPV6 resolved the issue.
-
And, finally. When playing with LAGG groups. if the lag is assigned a mode, ie load balance, it doesn't show up under the vlan interface options. when the mode is removed, it returns, then the load balance can be added after.
- like router1.location
-
Re (1) - that validation was added in 2.2. The "hostname" there is the top part of the name, it should not contain any dot. All the stuff after the first dot is domain name and goes in the domain name field.
-
Technically speaking, the validation is now correct. The hostname portion should not contain a '.'.
I have seen more than one person have it set the other way because they wanted to fudge the default search domain to be example.com and not sub.example.com, so they used routername.sub.
