January 2017 Update

Happy New Year. And Thank you for being part of the Mist Family!.

January is an exciting month for us. We are pushing a brand new dashboard that went live (1/25/2017). Please see below for all the updates for January 2017.

Features available for All Customers/Partners:

1. SLE Metric Monitoring (new views). This is the new Dashboard!

2. AP and WLAN Filtering in Users view. Minor Feature to filter AP’s and WLANs in their respective views.

3. Events differentiate between Client initiated disassociation or Session terminated due to client inactivity. This is for scripting based on API to identify clearly when users connected and disconnected from the network.

4. Added # of attempts for DHCP NAK and client IP for DNS failure events.
This is added in the events detail in Client Insights. Screenshot below.

5. Add PCAP support for DHCP acks in high latency and invalid IP (requires new fw).
This is added in the events detail in Client Insights.

6. No longer requiring verification when inviting existing Admin.
If you have a Mist Dashboard account, and you get invited to be an admin on a new org, you are automatically added to the org. No need to “Click to Accept”. Just simplifying adding new folks to your organization.

7. Management IPs in AP Details include both VLAN1 and L2TPv3 Tunnel.

Feature available for Beta Customers/Partners:

8. Security – Rogue AP Detection.

9. PoE Pass Thru Enabled for BT11 to power other BT11’s.
