Core Security & Performance Updates
-
Boundary Scan Protocol Enhancement
Resolves JTAG EXTEST instruction limitations in hardware diagnostic workflows through implementation of EXTEST_PULSE/EXTEST_TRAIN alternatives, ensuring full compliance with IEEE 1149.1-2023 standards for network interface testing. -
Threat Prevention Upgrade
Introduces 15 new IPS signatures targeting IoT protocol vulnerabilities (CVE-2025-17890 to CVE-2025-17904) with 92% accuracy in detecting Mirai variant attacks. SSL inspection throughput increases to 850Mbps on DSL-connected interfaces. -
SD-WAN Optimization
Reduces VoIP jitter by 35% through enhanced traffic shaping algorithms. Supports 256 concurrent PPPoE sessions with automatic failover between xDSL and 4G LTE backup links.
Hardware Compatibility Specifications
Model | DSL Standard | Security Acceleration | Memory Requirement |
