v1.19

  • Release date: September 24, 2026
  • GitHub release: v1.19.0

New features

  • Manage High Availability (HA) cluster via the UI: To form a cluster, connect to a node, click on Cluster and create a join token, then connect to another node and provide it with the token and cluster address. Nodes are identified by an automatically generated UUID and can be given a display name. The dashboard shows cluster health. You only need to interact with the config file to set up the cluster bind address.
  • VRF awareness: Ella Core detects Linux VRFs and binds to them. This allows users to completely isolate their user plane subscriber traffic from management.
  • Backup integrity: Backup archives are verified (SHA-256 digest, gzip stream and SQLite structure) before being restored.

Maintenance

  • Bug fixes
  • Dependency updates

Deprecations

  • The cluster.node-id, cluster.peers, cluster.join-token and cluster.initial-suffrage config file options are deprecated. Use the API or UI instead.
