ePMP Software Release 5.6.1 is now available

Hello @SBBinc,

could you PM me techsupport files from AP and SM? Better on both versions. So I can try figure out what has changed!
Also 5.7.0 beta is coming soon. It has multiple performance improvements for TDD.

Hi Andriii,

Thanks for the response - after downgrading the AP to try and replicate the higher throughput on link tests (as well as collect the tech support files) we are still seeing the lower throughput numbers, and after upgrading again the numbers are the same. So, not sure if something changed in the spectrum environment or what, but its likely the issue is caused by something other than the upgrade, since downgrading did not improve link test results.

Hi was there any improvement in RC57 for the TCP?

The 5.7.0 RCā€™s have been retired at this point and 5.7.0 final has been released. Thereā€™s not going to be any TCP improvements in RC57 that would not also be in 5.7.0 final.

Ahh that is disappointingā€¦ this issue is known and longstanding in the ePMP 3000 as well and still was never addressed.

Hi. for my 2c there certainly is work in 5.7.0 that is improvements for AX over 5.6.x and previous versions for AX systems.That is THE POINT of releasing new firmware. I donā€™t think Eric meant to imply otherwise. I think he was simply saying ā€œany improvements that was in 5.7.0 RC57 will also be there in 5.7.0 Finalā€.

Below is from Cambumā€™s 5.7.0 the release notes:

Improvements

  • Throughput and latency improvements for the sectors with 10+ SMs connected for
    ePMP45xx/F45xx deployments.
  • Stability Improvements for ePMP 45xx/ePMP 46xx, Force 4xxx/Force 6xxx platforms.
  • Performance improvements for deployments operating in the noisy environment.
