As per usual, the IP Fabric team has been working away on new features and functionalities to help you get the most out of our automated network assurance platform.

What's new in IP Fabric v6.0? 

Cisco Fabric Path and Route Maps   

For Cisco ACI, we added additional support for path lookups! Now you’ll see additional VXLAN header information when crossing over layer 2 interfaces.

ForcePoint support 

Basic discovery of ForcePoint devices has now been implemented, expanding our supported vendor list.

More Vendors added for tunnels 

With updates coming to each of the major firewall vendors, we added new support for layer 3 tunnel interfaces:

• Juniper
• Palo Alto 
• Arista 

VMware NSX-T - Cloud Security  

We added support for NSX-T! The ACLs are now in the ACL table, and they are now included in path lookups.

View hostnames how you want to

We've added some more columns to our Inventory table that represent the different Hostnames IP Fabric has seen for your network device.

Attributes & Attributes filtering 

We are happy to announce the ability to add custom attributes to devices. These attributes can also be used as a global filter.

Role-based Access Control 

Create a policy for access by device attributes, or create a policy for the endpoints the user should have access to.  Combine both for a powerful customized user experience!  

There have also been some under-the-hood changes:

• Customize the number of Workers for the IP Fabric appliance – Scaling  
• More customized discovery tasks 
• Assume Role for AWS support for multiple regions 

In addition to all these amazing new features, the IP Fabric team has been working away at over 550 issues, bugs, and overall improvements!  You can download the datasheet here for a list of all our current features.
