Product Update - November 18, 2024

New Navigation for CMA: We are gradually rolling out a new grouping and ordering for the Cato Management Application (CMA) menus to provide better usability and experience for admins. The new navigation helps create a logical flow for monitoring traffic and activity and configuration changes.

• When you’re ready, use the toggle in the header to show the new navigation and easily return to the existing experience

• We added a new Home menu to highlight cross-platform workflows spanning multiple domains, such as XDR Stories Workbench and Experience Monitoring. The single-domain perspective is maintained in the Network, Access, and Security menus that include monitoring and configuration pages

• There is a link to the feedback form at the top of the page, please let us know what you think

• The new navigation has no impact on traffic in your account and supports existing flows and browser bookmarks (no changes to the current URLs)

Save Favorite CMA Pages: We are gradually rolling out a CMA usability enhancement, so you can easily navigate to your most frequently used pages from the new Favorites menu.

Enhanced Admin Experience for Managing the RPF Policy at Scale: We improved management of the Remote Port Forwarding (RPF) policy with the following features:

• API support for managing the policy
  For more information see the Cato GraphQL API Reference

• Ability to modify the policy in parallel by multiple admins

• Faster and more responsive page for policies with many rules

New Cato GitHub Account: We are introducing Cato's GitHub account, which is available at https://github.com/catonetworks.

• The account hosts multiple resources with open-source reference code and tools, including sample Python scripts, a CLI client, a Terraform provider, modules, and more

• All resources on GitHub are provided "as-is" and are not an official Cato product

Increased Visibility of EPP Actions: You can now view the real-time status and history of actions sent to the EPP agent in the Protected Endpoints page. For example, you can see when the agent last performed a full system scan.

Run Socket Traceroute from the CMA: We added the ability to run traceroute commands directly from the Site Configuration > Socket page via WAN or LAN interfaces.

• Previously you needed to log in to the Socket WebUI to run traceroute
