OMADA 5.15 Radius deprecation
OMADA 5.15 Radius deprecation

Hi, I updated my OC200 controller earlier this week and after that, I saw a warning message advising that the inbuilt RADIUS feature will be deprecated/removed completely in 5.15, eg:
Why is Built-in RADIUS being removed, considering it hasn't been in place for very long?
I personally find it useful for RADIUS authentication of certain sensitive clients in a multi VLAN setup without having to add yet another server/service into my network landscape.
Is it too late to stop this from going ahead?

@Vincent-TP This is outrageuous. You are still selling the OC200 without any notice that it lacks software features compared to the other models. Your own product comparison page between the OC200 and OC300 only lists max number of managed devices as the difference https://www.tp-link.com/ca/compare/?type=smb&typeId=5806&productIds=39686%2C43177. I just bought $1k worth of Omada hardware, including the OC200, last week. And now I find out it's already a paperweight?

@Vincent-TP will this work also when the controller is managing multisite connected via VPN? I have 3 sites, all with TPLink devices, managed by one OC200 controller. I have need for routing specific clients using MAC address to certain VLAN. RADIUS was the solution. Hence I would need to migrate.
Want to make sure this migration will be painless since sites are in different countries

Omada Radius Server was extended to v6.0 on OC200
Built-in RADIUS will be deleted in the OC200 firmware version with Omada Controller V6.0 built-in. If you want to continue using it, please turn off the auto update function of the controller.

@Vincent-TP Can you confirm if the posting below regarding Radius and OC200 is accurate, in that it's been extended so v 5.15 will not remove the functionality?
If so, what caused the change in policy?
