Infix v24.02.0-rc1
Note: the
root
account is disabled in official builds. Only the
admin
user can log in to the system. This can be changed, but only
in developer builds:make menuconfig
-> System configuration ->
[*]Enable root login with password
YANG Status
Infix devices support downloading all YANG models over NETCONF, including
models with submodules. As a rule, standard models are used as long as
they map to underlying Linux concepts and services. All exceptions are
listed in Infix specific models, detailing deviations and augmentations.
Currently supported models:
-
- Toggle port speed & duplex auto-negotiation on/off
- Set port speed and duplex when auto-negotiation is off
- Query port speed/duplex and auto-negotiation status (operational)
- Frame counters:

- Message of the Day (MotD) banner, shown after SSH or console login.
Please note: the legacymotd
has been replaced withmotd-banner
os
of v24.02. Use CLItext-editor
to modify the latter - User login shell, default:
/bin/false
(no SSH or console login) - State information for remotely querying firmware version information
- Message of the Day (MotD) banner, shown after SSH or console login.
- deviations:
- timezone-name, using IANA timezones instead of plain string
- UTC offset, only support per-hour offsets with tzdata
- Usernames, clarifying Linux restrictions
- Unsupported features marked as deviations, e.g. RADIUS
- infix-system-software: firmware upgrade with

Changes
- New hardware support: NanoPi R2S from FriendlyELEC, a simple two-port router
- Static routing support, now also for IPv6
- Dynamic routing support with OSPFv2, limited (see
infix-routing.yang
for
deviations), but still usable in most relevant use-cases. If you are using
this and are interested in more features, please let us know!- Multiple area support, including different area types
- Route redistribution
- Default route injection
- Full integration with Bidirectional Forward Detection (BFD)
- Operational status, including but not limited to:
- OSPF Router ID
- Neighbor status
- OSPF routing table
- Interface type, incl. passive status
- For more information, see
doc/networking.md
- Support for disabling USB ports in
startup-config
(no auto-mount yet!) - Initial support for Docker containers, see documentation for details:
- Custom Infix model, see
infix-containers.yang
for details - Add image URL/location and volumes/mounts/interfaces to configuration,
the system ensures the image is downloaded and container created in the
background before launching it. If now networking is available the job
is queued and retried every time a new network route is learned - Status and actions (stop/start/restart) available in operational datastore
- Possible to move physical switch ports inside container, see docs
- Possible to bundle OCI archives in Infix image, as well as storing any
file content infactory-config
to override container image defaults
- Custom Infix model, see
- IEEE Ethernet interface:
- Support for setting port speed/duplex or auto-negotiating
- New per-port counters, augments to IEEE model added in infix-ethernet.yang:
in-good-octets
,out-good-octets
- Many updates to DHCPv4 client YANG model:
- new options, see
infix-dhcp-client.yang
for details:- Default options: subnet, router, dns+domain, hostname, broadcast, ntpsrv
- Set NTP servers, require NTP client in ie...
- new options, see
Infix v23.11.0
Note: this is the first release where the
root

Changes
- The CLI built-in command
password generate
has been changed to use the
secure mode of thepwgen
tool, and 13 chars for increased entropy - The

/var
is also cleared (properly) during factory reset - Add support for port auto-negotiation status in operational datastore
- Add CLI support for showing veth pairs in
show interfaces

Traversing the CLI configure context has been simplified by collapsing all YANG containers that only contain a single list element.

Changes
-
Add support for setting/querying IPv4/IPv6 MTU, see #152 for details.
-
Add support for Fail Secure Mode: if loading
startup-config
fails, e.g. YANG model validation failure after upgrade, the system now falls back to loadfailure-config
instead of just crashing. This config, along withfactory-config
, is generated on every boot to match the active image's YANG models. In case neither config can be loaded, or even bootstrapping YANG models fail, the system will go into an RMA state -- Return to Manufacturer, clearly signaled on the console and, on devices that support it, angry LED signaling. See #154 for more. -
Add support for generating GNS3 appliance file for NETCONF Aarch64.
-
Add support for UTC offset (+/- HH:00) in
ietf-system
, PR #174 -
Add support for
ietf-factory-default
RPC, PR #175 -
Add support for performing factory reset (using #175 RPC) from CLI
-
Replace
ietf-if-vlan-encapsulation
YANG model with the nativeinfix-if-vlan
model. This fits better with Linux VLAN interfaces and simplifies the syntax greatly. For details, see PR #179admin@example:/config/interfaces/interface/eth0.10/> set vlan id 10 lower-layer-if eth0

- Greatly improved branding support using
make menuconfig
. All the identifying strings, including firmware image, is in/etc/os-release
, will be used in CLIshow system-information
, the WebUI About dialog, and any prominent areas when booting up (on console), logging in to CLI and WebUI. - IGMP/MLD snooping is now disabled by default on new bridges. Support for multicast filtering bridges expected no later than v24.01.
- The SSDP responder, device discovery in Windows, has been removed in favor of Windows 10 (build 1709) native support for mDNS-SD. Details in #166
- A GreenPAK programmer has been added, not enabled by default. This is a popular programmable little chip from Renesas. Worth a look!
- The
confd
scriptgen-interfaces
can now generate bridges and stand-alone interfaces with IPv6 (SLAAC) forfactory-config
et al. - Drop
x86_64_minimal_defconfig
, previously used for regression tests only - Documentation updates of how IPv4/IPv6 addresses are shown in NETCONF operational data, as well as the built-in CLI, see #163 for details.

Changes
- The following new NETCONF interface operational status have been added:
- admin-status
- IP address origin (dhcp, static, link-layer, random, other)
- bridge
- parent-interface
- basic statistics (
in_octets
,out_octets
)
- Support for custom interface
phys-address
(MAC address) - The CLI admin-exec command
show interfaces
now fully uses NETCONF
operational data to display both available interfaces and all of their
IP addresses. Displaying an individual interface will show more info. - The CLI admin-exec command
password encrypt
now default to SHA512
Fixes
- Fix #136: IPv6 autoconf
create-global-addresses true
does not bite - Fix #138: Not possible to have static IP and DHCP at the same time
- Minor fixes and updates to documentation (faulty links, references)
- The
sync-fork.yml
workflow has finally been fixed.
