I also spotted that @Alta-cmb happened to post this in the Alta Labs Reddit regarding features that are coming up after this nice little update
Thanks! Lot more good stuff is on the way too. Firewall groups and inline IPS just launched this week. Policy routing is in review and will be coming soon. I just finished hostname and wildcard domain support in firewall groups (for use with firewall rules, NAT, and PBR) today, coming soon. Many great things you can’t see as well, like always-expanding automated testing. As well as much more to come this year.
Any plans to update the local controller? You have been pushing new features only for users on the cloud console; the local one is still on 1.1p and not able to use those features.
