EAP650 after firmware upgrade always asking for 'omada'

Tags: #Firmware Update

Model: EAP650

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.1.0

Today I upgraded firmware from 1.0.15 to 1.1.0. Since this upgrade the device is always (every 13 seconds) asking for 'omada'.

I don't use contoller for it. How can I prevent the device to ask nameserver for 'omada'?

Hi @schultze

Thanks for the screenshot.

This is because the new firmware 1.1.0 has added the function of DNS adoption. This function is used for the controller to discover controller/EAP across layer 3.

Currently, EAP will send this request by default and this can't be turned off.

We have feedback to the R&D team to add a button to disable it.

Hi, yes, we can use this device without an Omada controller.

Can you share a screenshot of the page so we could know the issue clearer?

Hi Vincent,

that irritates me. Sure, I can use this device without controller. It is still working properly.

The only thing, what I noticed, is, that the device is always asking my DNS for 'omada' since the upgrade to firmware 1.1.0.

Before there were no such traffic.

My question is, can I stop this asking with any change in configuration? Or should I better downgrade the firmware?

What screenshot do you mean? Web-GUI? Which page?

Thanks,

schultze

Hi @schultze

Sorry, it was a typo.

EAP can work without an Omada controller.

I want to know, how/where did you see/notice that the device is always asking my DNS for 'omada' .

I believe a picture or screenshot will help me to understand better. Thanks.
