Description

Wi-Fi

Enabled mbedtls 3.x

Parent topic:Bug fixes and/or feature enhancements

Firmware version: 18.99.6.p46 to 18.99.6.p47#

Component

Description

Wi-Fi

  • Enabled mbedtls 3.x
  • Host sleep with WoWLAN fails due to command response timeout (cmd 0x10d) during MCU sleep/wake transitions on WiFi NCP over UART, leading to system assert during sleep exit
  • Ping failures observed during concurrent network operations (fast ping from AP backend and DUT), with ICMP unreachable errors indicating routing/forwarding issues and performance degradation under specific network load conditions
