What's New

These features are introduced in 10.2.1:

  You are now able to generate functionality reports on System Information, System Status, Threats, Active Users, and Activities using all supported basic and advanced combinations. Reports can be scheduled on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.

• HTML5 SSH Key File Authentication Support

  User names and passwords were previously the only authentication methods supported by HTML SSH. More and more SSH servers are now being used as key file authentication sites, especially within the cloud environment. has added support for that Key File authentication method.

  • HTML5 SSH bookmarks support identity file authentication
  • HTML5 SSH features can save the identity file and user information in a browser's local storage
  • HTML5 SSH features can use the saved information to log in to an SSH server automatically

• Migration Tool

  The ability to migrate configurations across platforms has been developed allowing you to keep your key network configuration by mapping the source device interfaces to the destination device interfaces. This new tool disables the device/network-related features such as High Availability, and converts only the device-related feature configurations, such as Policies and so on. For any configuration migration scenarios, review the SMA100: Configuration Migration Tool Knowledge base article or reach out to Support for assistance.

• 500v on KVM

  500v for KVM allows you to run an 500v appliance in a KVM environment while supporting most of the features available on physical appliances.

• Allowed Host Option in the Content Security Policy Header

  You can add an Allowed Host option in the Content Security Policy Header that supports third-party resources. You must access your appliance's internal settings to input the third-party URLs in the Content Security Policy Settings.

• DUO Security Authentication Support for NetExtender and Mobile Connect Clients

  supports DUO Security Authentication during user login. DUO Security Authentication login is supported for different clients such as web browsers and Mobile Connect clients in both Contemporary and Classic Modes.

• Secure Hosts for Secure Network Detection

  When Secure Network Detection is enabled, using a new Secure Hosts setting, can check whether or not an SSL certificate is trusted, thereby allowing you to add secure hosts for "always on" VPN connections. If a secure network is not detected, the client will connect to the VPN.

• iPerf Integration

  iPerf can be integrated into and used to measure and tune network performance. It produces standardized performance measurements on any network and can function as both client and server. It can also create data streams that measure the throughput between the end client machine and the appliance in one or both directions as a backend resource host. iPerf output includes time-stamped reports of the amount of data transferred and the throughput measured.

You can learn more about these new features in the New Features section of the 10.2 Administration Guide.
