SD-RED Firmware 3.0.009 pattern update released

24 May 2023

Overview

We have just launched version 3.0.009 of the RED firmware pattern update. You can download and install the firmware right away. This release is a maintenance update that features essential security updates. The update includes improvements to multiple RED firmware components that address various open CVEs related to those components. Not all of the CVEs, however, affected vulnerabilities on SD-RED devices. Apart from the security enhancements, this firmware update also addresses multiple issues.

How about the lag of PPPoE support on the SD-RED 20/60..... They are saying coming soon on support of the VDSL SFP module for SD-RED since a couple of years....

Hi,

Already did not have VLAN option ON THE UPLINK CONNECTION!!

Some ISPs configure VLANs on their routers to provide different connection services (Surfing, VoIP, MPLS). It is necessary to be able to configure the uplink connection with a VLAN tag.

It seems to me that Sophos does not listen to requests for modifications...

XGS 3100 HA cluster says "Failed to install RED firmware" and there's nothing in the logging at all?

Already did a node fail over without any result. These products getting worse and worse. Even a simple flush of an ARP table when your cluster is failing over is too hard for Sophos! Sophos needs six months to reproduce this issue says they fixed it and it's back in 19.5.2MR2

Good job Sophos!

The upgrade of a recovered (bricked) SD-RED 20 went smoothly. Had no issues. NRF-635 seems fixed..
