August 10, 2016 (8.23.0)

This release is for the Private Cloud Appliance only.

Application

New features

  • FlowView support for v35 appliance model—AppNeta now offers FlowView product in a KVM virtualized environment.
  • Embeddable charts—We're busting PathView out of its cage! Grab the code for loss, latency, jitter, RTT, or MOS charts and embed it on any webpage just like you would embed a YouTube video. Embeddable charts means you construct a central dashboard outside of our service to display data from multiple monitoring solutions. One thing to consider is that viewers of the charts should be able to access AWS cloud.
  • Branded contact info—The support email address on the login page can now be customized as part of system branding.
  • Notification email enhancement—Alert profile violations are now highlighted in red so that they're easier to visually process.
  • Branded Swagger—Custom branding has been extended to the web service API.
