  • Consistent behavior across pages of zoom into a transaction or use its value as a filter criteria.

...

  • From time to time, DPOD customers may be required to install a new DPOD installation while preserving the data already collected. for example:
    • Customer deployed DPOD Appliance mode at version v1.0.0 with CentOS 6.7 and now requires to migrate to CentOS 7.2 introduced at version v1.0.2+.
    • Customer deployed DPOD on a virtual server but load increased and now requires a physical server.

New Features 1.0.5

API Connect Integration

...

  • Display a dedicated transaction list with only API-C transactions

  • A new dashboard of APIs and the date they were last executed in the system.

  • API payloads may now be captured

  • Automatically run setup DPOD log targets for each new API-C domain created. (This requires enablement in the monitored device configuration). Further configuration based on domain name prefix is available.

(red star) To activate API-C integration, perform (from the Web Console) a re-configuration of all your log targets in the DataPower that runs the API-C domain. You can also use the auto-setup feature to handle API-C domains created in the future.

Maintenance Plan for Syncing DataPower Appliance Configuration ((thumbs up)) - see limitations
