Essential improvements

The full changelog is available below.

Remote terminal

The remote terminal allows you to open an SSH session directly from the Manager GUI. This way, you don't have to install any tools to quickly perform an advanced task on your gateway, you can even do it from a tablet if you are on site.

Forwarder connectivity reporting

There is a long way to go between sending data from a device in the field and displaying it on the graph of a business application. When it doesn't work, it's not always easy to quickly find the source of the problem. To make it easier, the Manager now looks at the packet forwarder logs to determine if the connection to the Network Server is established.

And more to come...

LORIX OS 1.3 has brought a new foundation for connectivity that has allowed us to bring new features in 1.4 that we will soon be able to share with you. A new way to access your gateways that will make your life easier! We'll tell you more soon.
