ADFS support with SAML 2.0 in v13.6.2

If you are using Microsoft ADFS, you can now integrate that with Device42 single sign on using SAML 2.0.

You can now choose to delete devices in the background. If you are deleting a large # of devices – it might take forever depending on relations a device has and sometimes even time out. With this feature – you can just confirm the devices you want to delete and a background job gets added that goes on does the job while you attend to more important matters than taking out some measly servers.

When adding a new device, you are now just presented with name and type, and once you add those fields – you will see all the relevant fields for that device type. No need to press save after adding name and type.

Hardware model also gets a reference to device subtype now. This way when you auto-discover device type others, you can pre-classify the subtype from hardware model or change device subtypes in bulk, by changing the underlying hardware model.

You can now choose to use serial # for UCS discovered devices. Since UCS names can be same across different chassis, this will be a better option to use. And you can use hostname precedence in other discovery jobs to show the correct hostname for those devices.

You can now choose what departments end uses belong to when you add them via AD/LDAP sync job.

We are now ignoring all IPv6 and IPv4 link local IPs that are auto-discovered or added via the APIs. All fe8:: and 169.254.x.x addresses will now be ignored.

You can now choose not to bring in SFP as parts in network auto-discovery.

If you running S3 backups in regions where V4 is supported, or you need to add specific region end point hostnames – you can now do that.

Since instances discovered via Amazon AWS API and discovered via ssh or wmi had nothing in common – we end up creating duplicate devices if the name didn’t match. Now we have added an option in linux tool and agent to enable aws check from ssh – where it can find the instance ID and not create a duplicate devices via different discoveries.
