AirOS v5.5.2 publicado

En el mismo día que se realizaba el UWC en Buenos Aires, la gente de Ubiquiti publicó una actualización de Firmware para el AirOS en su versión v5.5.2.

Los cambios y arreglos son varios tanto a nivel de funcionamiento como de la interfaz web de configuración. Se ve que Ubiquiti le esta dando mucha importancia al tema de la seguridad en sus dispositivos y es por eso que ha agregado certificados SSL en todas las interfaces web, encriptando toda la información que se trafica entre el dispositivo y el navegador. Ahora viene activo por defecto el acceso por HTTPS y se ha removido la funcionalidad admin.cgi (ésta era explotada por la vulnerabilidad de acceso).

Algo que encontré gracias a esta actualización es que Ubiquiti dispone de unos equipos especiales NanoStation M6 los cuales pueden trabajar en las frecuencias de 5.9 Ghz a 6.4Ghz, rango que tienen permitido utilizar los operadores de telecomunicaciones en Rusia (es por ello que ésta versión solo está disponible en ese país).

El listado de cambio completo es:
