  • Hello, is firmware support for GS1900-24HP dropped in the 2.70 version?  It looks like the last update for it is for 2.60. Is this true?

    Hello. What has changed in this release? According to the download page and release notes, it appears to be the same version that was released back in August. The only difference I saw in the notes was that the "Change History" entry was changed to "V2.70(Axxx.3) | 10/26/2022". Right now, the dashboard of our GS1900-24EP shows "V2.70(ABTO.3) | 07/26/2022". Do we need to upgrade? What was the reason for the re-release? Thanks!

    Hi @NEP,

    The main problems that we fixed for this patch are
    1. Fixed stopping power delivery issue on PoE switch models.
    This is a severe issue that occurs to many customer on GS1900-24HPv1.
    2. Collecting tech support file multiple times continuously may cause switch crashed
    This issue may affect all GS1900 Series.
    Since you are using GS1900-24EP, these issues will not directly affect your switch.

    Hope these information help you,

    Adam

    Thanks for the info. Seems odd to not increment the version (only the date) for something major like that.
