I will ask this again. I think I asked it on the Route10 firmware release… will there be a way to override filtering wired devices like you can on SSIDS? Either at the VLAN level, or at the individual device level?

I’m not sure our plans here, but I’ll find out and follow up ASAP.

How do we see the On cloud control version that we are currently on?

Yes, I can confirm we have plans to add a bypass option for wired DPI, but I don’t have details to share at this time.

I don’t think there is a way at this time. That being said, I believe the cloud version of Control is intended to basically be always on the latest version. At least I’ve never had a case where it seems to be missing any of features or fixes once a new release is posted.

Not entirely sure if it’s a regression, but prior release fix of:

  • Resolve issues with disconnected wired devices not showing as disconnected.

Is having some issues again. I have two work machines showing up as disconnected wired devices (these are wireless devices, they do not plug in directly) and when I try to remove them, they immediately come back and continue to show as disconnected. I’m unsure if this is a new workflow, but the prior release, I was able to remove devices like these before.

Unsure of the repro steps for now, but assume it might still be related to MAC privacy settings on these devices. I can confirm that Alta registers both machines wirelessly properly, but has a duplicated entry as a disconnected wired device.

Can we have an actual device icon for the CONTROL represented on the network map?

Timeline on 2FA?
