Bondix S.A.NE May 2023 Release Notes

Our developers work on Bondix S.A.NE software incrementally which means that bug fixes, improvements, and even new features are constantly added, producing new release versions every couple of days.

On a monthly basis, we publish a version that combines all changes added since the last version.

This May 2023 Release contains the following changes:

New Features

Transparent Bonding Proxy (BETA)

The Transparent Bonding Proxy feature allows our bonding proxy to use the original client's source IP when proxying a connection. This requires additional setup and must be explicitly enabled; also, it’s expressly a BETA feature. You can find information on how to do that in our Bondix Knowledge Base Wiki.

Teltonika FW 07.04.3 Support

We now fully support Teltonika Network’s 07.04.3 firmware. If you intend on switching to this Teltonika firmware release directly from a major earlier version (07.0X.X), we recommend you reset your router before updating to this Bondix Release Version in order to ensure you achieve the bandwidths you’re used to. In this case, don’t forget to backup your settings.
