You can now enable CloudVision to combine the authentication and authorization requests that it sends to a RADIUS server into a single request. When RADIUS is configured as the AAA provider, CloudVision will send separate authentication and authorization requests by default. This can cause issues with One-Time Password (OTP) users, as issued passwords are only valid for one request. Note: Non-OTP RADIUS systems will be unaffected by the change. To combine authentication and authorization requests, navigate to Settings > Access Control and enable the Combine Login Auth Requests checkbox.

This studio enables you to quickly configure access interfaces towards endpoint devices in your campus network. This configuration relates to the devices in Access Pods deployed using the Campus Fabric (L2/L3/EVPN) Studio. The studio consists of port profiles and campus networks. You can create port profiles, which contain configuration for attributes like speed and MTU, which you can then assign to device interfaces in a campus fabric. Editing the profile will then affect all interfaces that the profile has been assigned to. You can also configure individual interfaces.

Use bearer tokens to provide custom applications or third-party applications, like Ansible, login access to CloudVision. Doing so will allow the application to make configuration changes to EOS devices. Bearer token login can be used with identity providers that issue bearer tokens and have an introspection endpoint. Okta and PingIdentity have been tested for use with CloudVision.

Use an External Certification Authority (ECA) to ensure secure communication and authentication with CloudVision..By default, Streaming Agent and other applications communicate with CloudVision using mutual-TLS certificates signed by a local certificate authority (CA). You now have the option to integrate CloudVision with Venafi, an external CA, to sign and verify these certificates.

Port mirroring allows you to duplicate ethernet packets or frames on a source interface to send to a remote host, like DANZ Monitoring Fabric (DMF). The mirrored packets or frames can be sent via a SPAN interface dedicated for communication with the host or over an L2 Generic Routing Encapsulation (L2GRE) tunnel.

Provisioning Settings allows you to configure CloudVision's default behavior when pushing configuration and image changes to devices. Each setting relates to an action used in Change Control. Ordinarily you should only need to use the default settings, but you can alter them for more control over CloudVision and EOS interactions for devices in your network.

The Static Configuration Studio is used to manage static configuration for devices, provide configuration not created by any other studio, and reconcile differences between CloudVision’s designed configuration and device running configuration. Devices are assigned to containers using tags that can identify one or more devices by hostname, role, or location in the network. Each container has configlets of EOS configuration, which are pushed to the EOS devices.
