Improvements

  • Create and edit subscriptions from the Administration Portal: the report subscriptions screen gained a button to create new subscriptions and now lets you edit existing ones. You can also select several subscriptions and edit or delete them at once. You organize automatic deliveries without depending on each user. See the documentation
  • First and last page in audits: the report audit gained buttons to jump straight to the first and last page of the results, which speeds up queries when there are many records. See the documentation

Improvements

  • Import and export firewall rules: on the firewall rules screen, you can now export the registered rules to a CSV file and import rules from a CSV file. This makes it easier to register many IP ranges at once and keep a copy of the rules. See the documentation
