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?

before ugrading anything, I'm reading release notes :

Resolved Issues : 11 pages

Known Issues : 6 pages

 

To Fortinet Team : On What's Knew, on some topics we don't know if it's for 5.4.0 or 5.4.1

WAN Optimization, DNS Filter,...

Most topics have explicit sections for 5.4.0/5.4.1, that is a good idea : it's easy to find what's new for a given feature

in 5.2 it's still possible to access the packet capture feature in gui on the smaller models

 

in 5.4.1 i'm getting i get a 403 access denied. Anyone know if it is still accessable?

 

 

I see they posted the 5.4.1 guides as well. Another step in the right direction.

Just read through the Known Issues in the release notes and it's clear that 5.4.1 is still meant for adjusting features. The amount of issues in it is just sad, I wouldn't even use it for my home FWF60D. In my opinion software development is one of the things Fortinet could improve the most currently.

Well crud. Was really hoping this would provide some strong bug fixes and stability. I am hanging out on 5.4.0 for now until 5.4.2 I guess!

ADD: Some features at FortiClient frofiles need to have ForticClient Version installed on devices not less 5.4.1 too. Only there is nothing at downloads - only 0780v. Programmers, any updates?

UPD: Forticlient 0780 not registering at FG.
