Key Features in GMS 7.1

The following are the key features introduced in GMS 7.1:

•

Multiple Agents behind a Single Gateway— This feature allows the user to add multiple agents behind the same gateway. In previous versions of GMS, only one Agent was permitted behind a gateway and additional devices were required for every distributed server added behind a gateway. The agent can be configured with settings allowing GMS to identify the gateway as either a NAT Device or a fully functioning GMS Gateway. This feature is supported only for Agents setup for SSL Management of managed appliances.

•	Default Tasks— The Defaults Tasks feature allows the Super Administrator to configure the tasks that get pushed to the appliances when they first get acquired by the GMS. This feature also allows you to push these tasks at a later time, not just when an appliance gets acquired by the GMS.

•	Enhanced Live Monitoring— The Live Monitor page in the GMS management interface has an enhanced look and feel.

•

Enhanced Filter Bar— The Filter bar in the Reports panel now allow you to specify multiple values per attribute for filtering instead of a single value per attribute. For instance, this feature allows you to filter on two websites, say “www.cnn.com” and “www.dell.com”, instead of only one, as in GMS 7.0. This feature also allows you to create reports on a subnet range of IP addresses.

•	Log Analyzer Enhancements— More columns are added in Log Analyzer and the user can customize which columns are shown or hidden. GMS 7.1 also uses the screen space more effectively to show the maximum amount of data in the Log Analyzer screen.

•	Reports Privacy— The Reports Privacy feature allows a GMS user to configure the GMS system to mask all IPs, user names and host names in Reports, and requires a double-authentication mechanism to unmask such identities.

•	64-Bit Virtual Appliance— The GMS Virtual Appliance is now available in 64-bit versions.
