Overview
Version 17.1.1 introduces a change to Energy Efficient Ethernet that may have a negative impact on systems using Realtek adapters. Specifically upon rebooting after the upgrade, all networking may become disabled. If your system uses a Realtek adapter you can apply the following patch. These instructions are specifically for installations with version 17.0.
How to run
IMPORTANT: Before upgrading from version 17.0, you must download the patch as you may not have network access after the upgrade is installed.
Download the script
From your home directory or /tmp run the following command to download the script.
curl -s -k https://downloads.untangle.com/public/patches/17.1.1/eee-ignore-realtek-patch.sh.tgz
Perform the upgrade
Perform the upgrade, which installs version 17.1.1. Check if your network connection is lost. If so, see below to apply the patch.
Execute the script
Navigate to the directory where you first downloaded the script. Then run the following command:
tar -xz eee-ignore-realtek-patch.sh.tgz && ./eee-ignore-realtek-patch.sh
After applying the patch, reboot your NG Firewall appliance.
