XIQ-16544 AP5020: Essentials Support on AP5020—BLE With this feature, the Essentials BLE webhook can send BLE iBeacon and Generic scan data from an AP5020 to a third-party server.
XIQ-20332 OWE transition mode putting clients on OWE SSID in default user profile In OWE Transition mode, devices connected to the hidden OWE network should be assigned the same user profile (including VLAN) as those on the open network. The user profile assignment logic used for clients on the open network is consistently applied to clients on the OWE network.
XIQ-22665 Support LAG across VIM or partitioned ports or other front-panel ports of single and stack slot ports Switch Engine supports the ability to define a LAG between different port types such as VIM and non-VIM ports for single switches and across stack slots.

XIQ-23028 Support Ability to Define ELRP Excluded Port and Timeout in Port Type EXOS/Switch Engine Switch Engine switches supports configuration of ELRP exclude on a port type which does not allow ELRP to disable the port when it receives ELRP packets. If ELRP exclude is not enabled, you can also define the ELRP disable port duration timeout.
XIQ-23777 Alias Import Icon moved to same area as other icons We moved the Alias Import icon located on the device-level page. It is grouped with the other icons, located on the right.
XIQ-25106 Show roaming trail for selected client ExtremeCloud IQ supports real-time map client roaming trails. Roaming trail playback displays a visual on-map animation of the roaming trail for the selected client. The roaming trail playback is available for 24 hours. By default, the timeline is the maximum amount of time for which the data exists (up to 24 hours). The roaming trail is green if roaming is speed is good (fast roam) and red if roaming speed is too slow. A pop up label shows the RSSI and channel of the new AP, that is the AP to which the client roamed.
XIQ-26445 AP5020 Radio Mode Configuration (modes 5 and 6) The AP5020 supports two new radio modes:
