NETGEAR GSM7212 Switch Firmware 5.1.1.3 Description

Defects fixed:

1. GSM7312 ACL list if configured via cut-and-paste, the switch might crash
2. When using Multiple Spanning Tree along with VRRP, and there are a lot of link status change event (link up and down), the switch might lock up
3. GSM7248 might not learn new MAC addresses and caused all unicast packets to flood when there are link change events.
4. Using “show tech” command on GSM7328S/GSM7325S might cause the switch to hang when there are a lot of link change events.
5. Using VRRP together with OSPF might cause GSM7328S/GSM7352S to lock up.
6. Some 3.x configurations could not be migrated to 5.x.
7. Sometime FSM7328S/52S/52PS stack might display correct stack configuration page the first browser is opened.
8. Subsystem pop up from Java applet did not match up with that of command navigation tree.
9. GSM7224 1000Mbps port performance could be affected by the present of low speed port running at 10Mbps and half-duplex.
10. Online support page link for FSM7326P was not correct.
11. FSM7352PS max POE power limit was set too low at 360w, readjusted to 420w.
12. Show port all command shows VLAN routing interface has physical speed of 10Mbps and half-duplex mode. Corrected by removing the speed and duplex status.
13. GSM7328S/GSM7352S showed the wrong STP patch cost for link aggregation port (LAG)
14. LAG member port LACP timeout value too short sometime could cause unnecessary port flapping, corrected by using longer timeout value.
15. LAG was not reporting member port change events to message log.
16. MIB files had un-references objects that could MIB compiler to fail
17. GSM7248 sometime SNTP would not update the clock
18. FSM7326P show poe port command showed the wrong interface address.
19. Traceroute CLI command showed the wrong IP addresses when VRRP is in used.

About Switch Firmware:

Given the large variety of models and different methods for upgrading the switch, if you wish to apply this package, we recommend that you read and understand the installation steps before you install a new firmware, even if you are a power user.

Usually the update procedure isn't much of a hassle as manufacturers try to make it as simple as possible; however, there are cases that are exceptions to this rule. First off, go to the system information page of the switch to check that the currently installed version isn't either newer or matching this release.

Applying a new firmware can decrease the security vulnerabilities, enhance overall performance and compatibility, improve various power management functions, resolve different errors, and add support for newly developed technologies and protocols.

It is recommended that you perform this step in a steady power environment such as the one ensured by a UPS unit, and that you don't interrupt the upgrade in any way, because this might cause the switch to malfunction.

That being said, click the download button, get and apply the new version, and check back with our website constantly to stay up to speed with the latest releases.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
