ZyWall 110: SSL VPN disconnecting problem after update to 4.72 firmware

mMontana

@Zyxel_James when a "nonWK" firmware release (including the SSLVPN correction) is scheduled? Both for 4.x and 5.x firmware, if possible.

Hello @mMontana,

The next version 5.31 includes this SSL VPN fix which is expected to be released in the middle of July.

As for 4.73, we do not have a release plan for now, it may be at the end of this year or later.

Thanks for sharing the schedule about 5.31.

I sincerely hope that at beginning of September 4.73 will be published. And also another bugfix release for end of the year/beginning of 2023. The decision to stop support for 4.x devices was quite abrupt, and the end of support was by crowd yell extended to the end of 2022. I'm glad to see the bugfix effort into lab files, I hope that the support will be... consistent, not a marketing stunt, as was for 3.x firmwares which had lab firmwares as latest release

I'm with mMontana. Lab versions should not be treated as regular fw releases and should be transformed into official regular version soon.

We are presently using lab version 4.72 AAPH.0 WK25 with our USG110. Why you don't release a 4.72 AAPH.1 with all lab improvements integrated?

As far as i know, official release should pass quality tests before release. These tests should ensure lesser bug regression and unwanted problems compared with WK/Lab firmwares, which should be "bugfix only".

Needed to emphasize that 4.72 introduced the bug on SSLVPN. So a WK version is in fact more quality checked than the official release, currently.

Hello @mMontana, @USG_User,

Thanks for your feedback.

We will collect all the bugfix on 4.72, and merge to 4.73.

Regards,
