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 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.
