  • Added support for tagged and untagged VLANs for virtual circuits landing on the same port, provided the port is not on an EFR (Edge Fabric Router) device.

  • Previously, the portal displayed the Unix epoch date (Dec 31, 1969) when there was no date for the last router flap. This has been changed to read Not found.

  • You can now find all our policies consolidated onto one page: PacketFabric Legal. This is reflected in the footer of the portal.

  • We added a Speed column to the virtual circuits table:
