# Product Update - December 26th, 2022

## New Features & Enhancements

- **Updated Hardware for the X1700 Socket:** We certified the updated **X1700B** Socket as a second hardware platform for X1700 Socket sites, and we're starting to ship the new model to customers.
  - The two X1700 Sockets are fully interoperable, and can be installed together in the same HA cluster
  - Both models have the same pricing
  - Cato will continue to provide support for both models
  - See this [FAQ](/v1/docs/faq-x1700-socket-hardware-update-x1700b) for more about the X1700 Socket hardware update
- **Accounts Using Registration Codes Can Now Configure SSO for Specific Users:** For accounts that want to migrate from Cato’s Registration Codes (Access > Directory Services > User Provisioning) to Single Sign-On (SSO), we now support the option to configure both methods under the same account. This lets accounts currently using Registration Codes gradually migrate by setting SSO authentication for specific users. [Read more](/v1/docs/configuring-sso-and-the-subdomain-for-the-account).
- **Enhanced Data for Security Rules Export:** When you export security rules, the CSV file now includes the Description field for rules in the following Security policies:
  - Internet and WAN firewall
  - TLS Inspection
  - Application Control and Data Control
- **Easy Creation of New Security Rules by Duplicating Existing Rules:** Starting January 1st, you can duplicate a rule in your security policies and then modify it to create a new rule. Duplicating a rule creates a new identical rule directly below the original, which you can then easily adjust as needed. Rule duplication is supported for these security policies:
  - Anti-Malware
  - TLS Inspection
  - Application Control and Data Control
