Apple on Monday released updates for its AirPort wireless base stations. According to notes provided with the update, AirPort Base Station Update 2010-001 includes general bug fixes and a couple of specific changes. For example, AirPort base stations will now import all settings when importing a configuration.

The base stations will also now correctly propagate MAC address control lists when using an extended network.
