The new firmware version 26.00 brings numerous improvements to the brevis.one SMS Gateway, including enhanced high availability, security updates, and expanded network functionality. The main highlight is the significantly improved High Availability (HA) functionality, which now allows for more flexible cluster configurations.
Enhanced High Availability (HA)
One of the most important new features is the ability to operate HA clusters with more than two gateways. Additional gateways can now be added to the master gateway and managed centrally.
New load balancing options provide even greater flexibility:
Gateway with Best Reception as Master: Automatically selects the gateway with the strongest mobile network reception as the master.
Load Balancing (Round Robin): Distributes the load across multiple gateways.
Improved Cluster Overview: IP addresses and status information, such as ONLINE or STANDBY, make it easier to monitor individual gateways.
Additionally, improved error messages simplify the setup and administration of HA clusters.
Further Improvements in Version 26.00
In addition to the enhanced HA functionality, the firmware update includes several other improvements:
Security and Stability: Updated software packages, security fixes, and improvements in the TLS area.
Network Functionality: Extended DHCP options for transmitting the MAC address, DUID, or hostname.
Message Routing: Optimizations to improve message processing and forwarding.
Bug Fixes: Corrections in several areas, including SNMP and email-to-SMS functionality.
