Changes and enhancements

Incremental style updates

The portal will be undergoing periodic UI updates to enhance usability and to match our new style guidelines.

This release features a new font, our updated logo, and brighter colors.

Previously, the portal linked to separate HTML copies of our SLA, MSA, and privacy policy. Going forward, those links will lead to the PDF copies that are available from packetfabric.com.

Total traffic graph interval set to 60 seconds

We updated the traffic graph that displays on the portal homepage to use 60-second intervals. This is more consistent with traffic graphs elsewhere in the portal.

Previously, this graph displayed 300-second intervals.
