When is 5.4.1 going to drop?

Is there an ETA as to when 5.4.1 is going to drop?  I have a brand new 300D that I am waiting to put into production as soon as 5.4.1 is ready.

That amount of clashes is nothing to worry about I'd say. On the LB-vdom I mentioned earlier the log shows 6-digit amounts of clashes. The clash counter is reset at reboot btw, and is not related to the current amount of sessions. It is just an ongoing counter.

 

To my knowledge, all restarts of applications with restart option 11 (segmentation fault) in FortiOS is seen as a crash. It doesn't have to mean anything bad per se. The OS recycles processes all the time using option 15 (graceful restart). When that doesn't work, it moves on to try to restart with option 11 wich will generate a log entry in the syslog. The recycle process continues all the time, buffers needs to be cleared etc etc. However, a constant restarting of the same application can also mean various problems - Memory leaks, buffer overflows etc.

 

I checked your log, but I can't see anything else then the PID and some weird ASCII-signs as application name. It does look kinda odd.

 

Check your logs and keep track of if the application crash log entries correlates with odd behaviour in the firewall, we're talking sudden reboots, functions and features stopping/not working.

 

What does "diagnose debug crashlog read" say?

 

Also, do a  "diagnose sys top", a few times during the day. Do you have processes in Z or D state?

It's like 6 months nearly since the 5.4 GA release, just for a 0.0.1 build, while I agree not to rush it out, just leaving it so long means they have probably rewritten most of it, but that just means this new build (5.4.1) could be just as buggy...

They will release 5.4.1 but it won't be compatible with any of there devices. Open the firmware file up in notepad and it will read "haha mugs"
