Previously the Axis device was not able to authenticate properly against an 802.1x network when the MTU was configured to 1410 or lower. 10.6.0:C5 Corrected an issue that on some occasions could prevent export of a part of a recording. 10.6.0:C6 Corrected an issue that in combination with some VMSes and low resolution could cause brief disconnections in the video stream. Corrections in 10.5.2 ================================================================================ 10.5.2:C1 Corrected an issue that on some occasions prevented an upgrade to firmware version 10.5.0. 10.5.2:C2 Corrected an issue that could cause O3C-based connections with the device to be interrupted. 10.5.0:C1 Added possibility to reset occupancy level at a user-defined specific time. 10.5.0:C2 Increased the number of allowed characters for event condition name to 512. 10.5.0:C3 Corrected an issue that prevented the use of some special characters in ONVIF passwords. 10.5.0:C4 Corrected an issue that caused the video to be stretched if in corridor mode and cropped. 10.5.0:C5 Corrected an issue that prevented the Axis device to respond with HTTP 403 Forbidden when the source-ip address was blocked when using PreventDOSAttack in Plain Config -> System. Previously HTTP 401 Unauthorized was returned. 10.4.0:C1 Corrected an issue that erased the password from the MQTT broker connection settings when editing settings occasionally. This required the user to re-enter the password when this happened. 10.4.0:C2 Corrected an issue that caused the MQTT configuration in the device to get corrupt on rare occasions. 10.4.0:C3 Corrected an issue that could caused an MQTT event to be duplicated upon registering the same event multiple times. 10.4.0:C4 Updated digital input LogicalState metadata API to consistently use 0/1 on all camera models. 10.4.0:C5 Corrected an issue that caused the device to send an EPRT command when transferring an image or video via FTP instead of an EPSV command. 10.4.0:C6 Corrected an issue where a network share used as a recipient could get its properties overwritten by another network share created from the Storage page. 10.4.0:C7 Corrected an issue that required the user to re-enter the password for the user for the MQTT broker connection upon changing other MQTT settings. 10.4.0:C8 Corrected nice names for the PreventDoSAttack parameters in Settings -> System -> Plain Config-> System -> PreventDoSAttack. 10.4.0:C9 Improved Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) system stability. 10.4.0:C10 Corrected response for NTP API version. 10.3.0:C1 Corrected an issue that could cause live image to blink in dark conditions on rare occasions. 10.3.0:C2 Corrected an issue that caused video clients to not display a low-FPS video stream due to missing base FPS info in VUI timing info. 10.3.0:C3 Corrected an issue that caused PKCS#12-formatted certificate uploads to fail when certain special characters were used as a password. 10.3.0:C4 Corrected text for time offset in the Date & Time web page, the offset is now shown in milliseconds instead of seconds. 10.3.0:C5 Corrected an issue with pause-frame handling that could cause network disconnections if pause-frames were enabled and used in the network. 10.3.0:C6 Corrected an issue that prevented the device to utilize the available network bandwidth in high-latency networks such as 4G cellular network. 10.3.0:C7 Corrected an issue that caused the value of Quality of Service (QoS) to not be respected in always multicast mode. 10.3.0:C8 Corrected an issue that prevented the device to stream in always-multicast mode after the video stream processing has been restarted. 10.2.0:C1 Corrected an issue that caused an error message to pop-up when pressing the test button of an event using HTTP recipients. 10.2.0:C2 Corrected an issue that caused the 'last will & testament' message not to work.
