@Clive_A In the Beta Firmware Download section, there is the following line: (3) The above firmware is fully adapted to Omada SDN Controller 5.8.21.
My ER7212PC v1.0 with firmware 1.0.3 Build 20230314 Rel.21018 is reporting it has controller version 5.8.22.
Does this mean that by applying the beta upgrade, i will downgrade my controller version?

Hi @dgrintz
It's rebooting the device manually. He's looking for a way to reboot on a schedule. But what you posted is pretty helpful for others who seek to reboot manually. Kudos to you.

Hi @DJDigY
Based on past experience and version changes, it should be fine. The main version is still V5.8.

Thanks for your reply, i tried to find the release notes for 5.8.22 and 5.8.21 to check which functions are added or changed since them, but i can not find them on the community.

Thanks, sorry i was to fast with typing the reply. Could have known where to find the latest release notes.
Have any idea if the firmware that will be released will contain minimum of version 5.8.22? I would like to use the function to change PVID on ports, but that is a function that is added in 5.8.22, so preferably i will not downgrade to 5.8.21.

DJDigY I think there is a mistake in the release notes, it's upgrading the controller to 5.8.30 :
