New features
-
Support TLS as a new communication security protocol (RDTP-17091, RDTP-5248): TLS (Transport Layer Security) has been added along with IPSec (Internet Protocol Security). By default, TLS is used to encrypt every message going from the LRR to the ThingPark platform. IPSec can still be used and configured using the Suplog. To learn more, see Activating a secure connection via IPSec or TLS.
-
Reporting of cellular statistics (RDTP-2420): showing the 3G/4G operator, RSSI, SINR and other RF stats related to the cellular backhaul interface.
-
Possibility to customize the SUPPORT password from SUPLOG (RDTP-15143): For enhanced security, the default SUPPORT password may be changed by the user from SUPLOG console, under Identifiers > Set Actility support tool password.
-
Enhanced filtering of non-LoRaWAN uplink packets (RDTP-17897): Optimized LRR filtering of uplink packets to discard non-LoRaWAN frames.
-
Allow configuring ICMP destinations in SUPLOG (RDTP-17415): Make it possible to customize the ICMP destinations in SUPLOG to comply with specific deployment use cases where ICMP protocol is not authorized on ThingPark's server side.
-
Introduction of embedded virtual device probe: This feature provides insight into the RF quality of the network using an emulated device in the LRR to send messages over the LRR antenna, and then analyze the quality of the received uplink packet by other surrounding LRRs.
-
Introduction of new managers: Centralmgr is now centralizing all information from the other managers: gwmgr, failovermgr, restoremgr, rollbackmgr, lrrmgr, pkimgr.
-
SSH key security improvement (GRAL-285): Explicitly generating 2048-bits RSA key.

-
PT-2551: Fix Terrapin vulnerability
-
Access to stunnel logs within SUPLOG
Bug fixes
- PT-2495: Force cellular MTU to 1358; force MSS to 1254 for IPSec
- PT-2064: [NFR920] Auto-restore feature causes gateway loss if no backup is available.
Known issues
- PT-1824: watchdog may reboot the gateway under heavy load.
- PT-1818: syslogd stops after a while (may be due to ntpd restart).
- PT-1763: gateway doesn’t natively support NTP synchronization via GPS.
