JSON Email Example
Scheduled Software Upgrade
Select a time to apply device software upgrades.
Dashboard Device Health Component
The Dashboard Device Health component has been rewritten to better represent the many device types now supported in cnMaestro.
WLAN Overrides (cnPilot Enterprise)
WLAN details unique to a device, such as SSID, Enabling/Disabling SSID and Passphrase, are now supported as part of Device Overrides. These can be configured in the Device Configuration page at Manage > Configuration, and then selecting the device in the tree to update.
Link Quality Indicator (LQI) for PMP SMs
The LQI statistic indicates if a PMP link is degraded by interference or noise. An LQI of 100% means there is no interference. A value of 90% or higher is considered reasonable. Depending on their environment, operators may differ on what is considered unacceptable (i.e. 80%, 70%, 60%). The Manage > Statistics table shows the LQI, in downlink and uplink, for every PMP SM. An administrator can sort the table by downlink or uplink to identify the SMs experiencing the most significant degradation. Click on an individual PMP SM Performance tab to view the LQI over the last day or week to correlate degradations to certain periods of time.
Busy Index for PMP APs
This represents the percentage of time during the last week in which a PMP AP is congested -- determined by the frame utilization exceeding 90%. The System and Tower dashboards display a list of the top five busy PMP APs. The Manage > Statistics table shows the Busy Index, in downlink and uplink, for every PMP AP. An administrator can sort the table to identify the most congested APs. Click on an individual PMP AP Performance tab to view the frame utilization over the last day or week to understand when usage tends to be highest.
Bulk Reboot
Bulk reboot is added as part of Actions available on Inventory page.
CSV Configuration Import (Backhaul Devices)
Global cnMaestro Configuration CSV import is available from the Inventory page at the following levels: System, Network, Managed Account, ePMP or PMP AP devices. This feature is supported only for Access and Backhaul devices (AP and SM).
The following parameters are supported for ePMP/PMP AP devices:
- Latitude
- Longitude
- Height
- Azimuth
- Elevation
The following parameters are supported for ePMP/PMP SM devices:
- Latitude
- Longitude
CSV Example
cnPilot Home WLAN and LAN Statistics
The Wireless LAN Dashboard displays details of cnPilot Home (R-Series) devices in the Client and Network sections (this functionality is already available for cnPilot Enterprise).
Guest Access Portal Logout
Logout support is added to the cnMaestro Guest Access Portal. This feature helps guest users use allocated session time more precisely.
For example, if a guest user has a session time of 1 hour, and 1 day as renewal frequency, the user can logout of guest session after 10 min of usage, and the remaining 50 min of session time can be used across different sessions within 1 day (renewal frequency).
- Navigate to Services > Guest Access Portal page and select the respective Guest Portal Name.
- Select Access.
- Select Enable Logout functionality for the guest client check box.
- Click Save.
Twitter Support for Guest Login
Support for Twitter is added under Social Login to Guest Access Portals. Now Guest Clients can login using Twitter.
