A new Connectivity Monitor panel allows users to easily view the health of device connections in Dashboards. The Connectivity Monitor panel displays EOS probes, categorizes connections as either Healthy or Unhealthy, and identifies the number of devices involved. By clicking on an Unhealthy connection, you can view the Connectivity Monitor events related to the connection.

CloudVision allows users to monitor a device’s environment by displaying graphs for temperature, power supply and fan speed. Power Supply shows the power used at each power socket on the device. Previously users could only view a visualization of output power. A visualization for input power is now available to view.

Event Rollup allows you to manage the volume of identical events and can be used to flag when an event is recurring. Event Rollup groups together events that are identical except for their timestamps. It does so in two ways: dynamically via the Event List and according to a 24-hour window via the detailed event view. It can be enabled or disabled at will, using the Roll Up toggle.

FIPS is a US federal standard for computer systems and data security that mandates only compliant cryptographic algorithms and their implementations be used in a product’s cryptographic operations. A product is considered FIPS compliant if it uses verified crypto modules that have been certified by a laboratory approved by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). CloudVision has completed the FIPS certification process to allow users with both single-node and multi-node clusters to operate in FIPS mode. Intra-node communication is not yet certified and will follow in Phase 2.

Creating a scope, or attribute, for your SAML provider allows you to pass CloudVision roles from the corresponding identity provider to CloudVision. This allows CloudVision user accounts to be automatically created with these roles when a new user logs in with that provider.

This feature introduces a new type of action that can be created and configured under Provisioning > Actions. These actions automate the process of assigning values to inputs in a studio and allow users to input data that originates from outside a studio.

These updates improve the layout of the Studios landing page by emphasizing essential studios and structuring all other studios in a more comprehensive, user-friendly way.

The tag matcher is a new simple input in Studios that allows you to specify a list of devices to be passed as the value for another input field. It is similar to the resolver input in that it allows users to specify a set of devices or interfaces using tag queries, but unlike the resolver, the tag matcher doesn’t require a member input to be configured.

The vertical navigation bar is an update to the layout of CloudVision. It replaces the existing horizontal header with a vertical navigation menu that lines the left side of the page. This allows for a cleaner horizontal header where key functions of CloudVision sections are highlighted.

CloudVision now creates VRF system tags in order to name devices in a VRF. This allows you to identify devices by VRF using the Tag Query Editor, like in Dashboards.
