Changes in version 12.2.1
Forward compatibility of exported configuration is guaranteed throughout all releases with the same major version number. Between major versions, the last stable release of the previous major version is guaranteed to export configuration that is compatible with the next major version.
For example: For Flowmon Packet Investigator 11 releases, a configuration export from any 11.0.x release is compatible with any 11.1.y release. For upgrades between major versions, a configuration exported from the last 11.1.x release will be compatible with the first 12.0.y release.
What's new
- REST API documentation is now available as an interactive guide on every appliance.
- The c-ares package was updated to version
c-ares-1.10.0-3.el7_9.1, fixing CVE-2023-32067.
Fixed defects
- 188994: Removed incorrect buffer size UI validation.
- 195080: FPI analysis no longer fails for mDNS traffic split into two packets.
Known issues
- NTP traffic analysis can report a false positive event with incorrect server time settings. This issue will be resolved in an upcoming bugfix release.
- Changes in timezone settings can cause failures when creating future packet captures. The workaround is to restart the FPI module after changing the timezone.
