### 📋 Main Changelog & Key Features (Released July 27, 2026)

* **New Firmware Channel Selection:** Introducing a split upgrade track strategy. The “Stable” channel (Default) keeps production-ready devices on uOS 1.38 until further validation is completed. Switching to the “Latest” channel opens immediate access to newly deployed releases like V1.39.
* **Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) Hardening:** FTP services are now **disabled by default** to minimize the out-of-the-box attack surface and comply with updated security audit requirements.
* **Optimized IPS Engine Performance:** Bypasses deep packet inspection for trusted UDP traffic already identified by App Patrol, noticeably increasing throughput speeds.
* **Nebula Identity Federation Enhancements:** Extended single sign-on support to cover both **Captive Portals** and **SSL VPN** tunnels.
* **ACME Let’s Encrypt Integration:** Streamlined automation for deploying and renewing free SSL/TLS certificates directly from the local management interface.
* **Local GUI Improvements:** Added support for cloning **App Patrol** profiles and introduced a real-time searchable dropdown menu for faster object selection.
* **Nebula Centralized Logging:** Firmware upgrade activities are now fully tracked, timestamped, and pushed to Nebula cloud logs for audit transparency.

### ⚠️ Deployment Notes & Best Practices

* **Backup First:** Download a complete copy of your startup configuration (startup-config.conf) before initiating the upgrade process.
* **Sequential Upgrades:** If your firewall is running an older baseline uOS version, check your current firmware topology. You may need to apply an intermediate version step first to safely migrate configuration structures.
* **How to Apply:**
* *Cloud Mode:* Navigate to **Site-wide > Configure > Firmware management > Firewall** in your Nebula Control Center.
* *Standalone Mode:* Log into the local GUI and navigate to **Maintenance > Firmware/File Manager** to run a cloud firmware fetch or manually upload target binary packages.
