Release 2.4.3 brings following critical bug fixes and enhancements to the software.

Backup and restore critical bug fix

While doing the restore, the images for hardware and building were not coming over correctly. Now fixed.

Network auto-discovery critical bug fix

After release 2.4.0, http was redirected to https and that broke the network auto-discovery module uploading the data. This has been fixed with this version.

Group permissions to view and edit passwords

You can now assign groups to view and edit passwords. Makes the centralized administration of password easier as you can assign groups and easily add/remove users from those groups without making changes to password permissions every time.

View passwords related to a device from the device view

Button to see all passwords(as per permissions) for a device in the Device view. Takes you to the password page.

Default password permissions

If no user or groups is selected to edit a password, view and edit permissions are now automatically assigned to the user adding/editing the password.

Rack display name overflow bug fixed

If rack name was long 2nd line was overflowing into the rack display. Now fixed.

Rack size increase now allowed

Starting with v2.4.3, you would be able to increase the rack size if there are already devices in it. In earlier versions, it didn't allow size change of a rack if there were any devices in it.

Cosmetic Fixes

  • Display text while uploading the update file is now fixed.

Known Issues

  • Login issues: After using the web portal for sometime, the login screen throws user back at the login screen even after entering right username and password. Update: This has been resolved in v2.5.0. Please download the new appliance and read steps to the upgrade to v250.
  • CSV import for devices and IP breaks if there are universal new characters in the file. As a workaround, please use excel import introduced in v2.4.2.
