First Meraki product to have the CalVer format

I thought they were just copying the Apple IOS numbers by mistake...

[GIdenJoe]

Hehe, no, all the releases are going with calendar year format.
Even IOS-XE and Catalyst SD-WAN will start following this format.

The Secure Firewall Thread Defense just now went back to 2010 ...

[GIdenJoe]

That's the exception... for now 😜

>Client VPN now supports IKEv2 for establishing connections.

Now that is interesting.

[RaphaelL]

I wouldn't be surprised to finaly see a sunset on L2TP. Something like MX 26 to be the last version offering support for it.

[KarstenI]

I would be happy if that option disappeared. One click less to go to AnyConnect.

Too many reboots on MX67...

i upgraded at 1AM. starting at 9am my MX67 started to reload every few minutes. After I downgraded back to 19 everything started to work.

Same in 2 of my networks, rolled back from 26.1.1 to 19.1.11 and everthing work fine for me.

Our lab MX67 has been stable on the beta firmware for 24 hours now, although it is the MX67C-WW variant so perhaps that makes a difference 🙃

• Expanded BGP attribute support to include outbound well-known and custom communities and increased route integrity with inbound filtering.

Keen to test this new functionality - does anybody know where the configuration option would be?
Checked under SD-WAN > Routing and no new options there that I can see!

[ShaunB93]

Within Security & SD-WAN > Routing, Outbound community string and Inbound route filter is now available within eBGP peers in the Route control section:

After upgrading my MX67W it was rebooting every 5 min. This firmware doesn´t work with MX67W.
