v0.13.5

• Changed
  • Warn when setting default routes with IP addresses outside of the subnet
    rather than crashing. Thanks to Ben Murphy for this fix.
  • Bulletproof force clearing of IP addresses to avoid crashing unnecessarily
    during cleanup. This was a very rare case.

v0.13.4

• Changed

  • VintageNet configurations are normalized on load now rather than on use.
    For various reasons, it's useful to support multiple ways of specifying
    network configurations, but internally VintageNet always converts to one way
    to simplify use. If you call VintageNet.get_configuration/1 or
    VintageNet.get/2 to look at the config, you'd see the original form and not
    the normalized one. Now you get the normalized one.
  • Add :reason to the VintageNet.Technology.Null. VintageNet uses Null to
    make network interfaces stay unconfigured when requested or when there's an
    error. The :reason key helps you know why rather than forcing you to dig
    through logs.

• Fixes

  • When reseting a network configuration to defaults, a settings file was
    written and immediately erased. That doesn't happen any more.

v0.13.3

• Changed
  • Sort dhcpd options so their order doesn't change in configuration files made
    by OTP 26. This fixes regression test failures that expected the files to by
    the same. It shouldn't matter for real use, but it's nice that the files are
    deterministic just in case.
  • Ignore unexpected messages to the InterfacesMonitor. This fixes an
    unnecessary crash/restart that was seen. Errors are still logged.

v0.13.2

• Changed
  • Always set IPv4 broadcast address for static IPv4 configurations. This fixes
    an issue where the default for subnet broadcast address was not the expected
    host all-ones address per RFC 922.
  • Prune out LAN addresses when trying to detect Internet connectivity. This
    fixes one way that the Internet checker could be tricked by a captive portal
    that resolves all DNS queries to its portal address.
  • Fix confusion with :dhcpd :subnet option. This maps to the subnet mask
    field when responding to DHCP requests. The word "subnet" was interpreted as
    a subnet which was incorrect for this. :netmask is now an alias and
    examples are fixed.

v0.13.1

This release fixes deprecation warnings when using Elixir 1.15.

v0.13.0

This release has a breaking change if you're using the UdhcpcHandler
behaviour. This should be a rare use case. Use the "dhcp_options" property
now.

• Changed
  • Add "dhcp_options" to interface properties. This lets applications use
    information provided by DHCP servers in an easy way. It removes the need to
    process events from udhcpc directly, and therefore, the UdhcpcHandler
    behaviour is now a private API and may be removed in the future.
  • Fix some references to iodata that should have been chardata.

v0.12.2

• Changed
  • Add VintageNet.info_as_ansidata/1. This lets you get the same results as
    VintageNet.info, but in a way that's easy to put on a web page or send
    to a server, etc.
  • Support updating network configuration even when it can't be persisted.
    Previously if there was an error saving the configuration and persist: true (the default), the configuration wouldn't be applied. This turned
    out to be problematic when trying to get some devices fixed. Now the
    device won't have the right config on reboot, but it can be reached over
    the network to be fixed.

v0.12.1

• Changed
  • The list of name servers that VintageNet uses when configuring the name
    resolve is now available by running VintageNet.get(["name_servers"]).

v0.12.0

This release has two potentially breaking changes:

1. Elixir 1.11 is now the minimum supported Elixir version.
2. VintageNet.PropertyTable has been extracted to its own library and is now
   just PropertyTable. Most users did not use VintageNet.PropertyTable
   directly, but if you did, you'll need to update the references.

• Changed
  • Extract VintageNet.PropertyTable to its own library. Note that many
    improvements were made to PropertyTable including renaming functions for
    consistency and changing the events. Code was added to VintageNet to hide
    these changes for now. Longer term, we'll be making things more consistent,
    but the hope is that the PropertyTable changes are transparent to VintageNet
    users in this release.
  • Support specifying absolute paths to network configuration commands. While
    this is not preferred, it's useful in some scenarios.
  • Redact more kinds of secrets in VintageNet.info

v0.11.5

• Changed
  • Fix a no function clause exception in the InternetChecker that could happen
    if no IP addresses were assigned to an interface.
