DeviceExpert
Build 5210
New Features / Enhancements
- Earlier, information on 'who changed' the configuration was captured only when real-time change detection was enabled. Now, the information is captured from 'configuration header' for Cisco devices.
- Earlier, Power Users had the privilege to review and approve the configuration changes made by any Operator on any device. Now, 'Administrator' will assign 'Approving Authorities' for every Operator. Only those Power Users who have been designated as approving authorities, will have the privilege to approve the changes made by the respective Operators. However, all users with the role 'Administrator' will have the permission to approve the changes whether they are designated as approving authorities or not. But, they will receive email notification only if they are designated as approving authorities.
- Real-time change detection support is extended to Bluecoat devices.
- Earlier, backup and upload of startup configuration was not supported for D-Link DGS devices. This is now supported

Changes / Bug Fixes
- Earlier, there were issues in connecting to devices via SSH v1. This has been fixed.
- Earlier, when a scheduled task for configuration backup was created for a device whose configuration was not backedup at least once prior to creating the schedule, there were issues in executing the schedule. This has been fixed.
- Earlier, there was no provision to directly delete synchronization schedule created for synchronizing Activity Directory user database with DeviceExpert. Now, separate provision has been made for deleting it.
- Earlier, when the DNS name of the host where DeviceExpert is running was improper, a blank page appeared when connecting the web-interface. This has been fixed.
- During the device discovery or device addition process, device names might not get recorded correctly due to DNS issues. To correct the names, provision was given to edit and update the host names in bulk. Earlier, there were some issues in editing the host names. This has been fixed.
- The default inactivity timeout for DeviceExpert web-interface has been changed from 30 minutes to four hours. Timeout value is configurable.
