● In the Remote Management Console, when Core Networking rules are added or edited, the Connection types field is now
locked as expected and cannot be edited. [DDPMTR-562]
● In the Remote Management Console, an endpoint that has been previously removed can now be recovered. [DDPMTR-640]

error message has been replaced with a message that more clearly describes the error. [DDPMTR-764]

● Performance is improved for client activations based on streamlined access of Active Directory. [DDPMTR-1538]

from registering again. [DDPMTR-1599]
● With Deferred Client Activation, on the first attempt to remove an endpoint, an error displays and the endpoint is not
removed. To work around this issue, perform the action again. The endpoint is removed as expected. [DDPMTR-1711]
● An error displays and the search fails when searching System logs in Log Analyzer for the first time. To work around this
issue, perform the search again. [DDPMTR-1714]

Compliance Reporter. [DDPS-1719]

● Amended 02/2016 - Pressing Esc navigates to a higher level menu than expected in a few VE Terminal screens. If no time
zone is selected in the VE Terminal Time Zone screen, pressing Esc does not navigate to the next higher level menu.
