.NoteYou can continue to access App Net Manager at
https://admin.corente.com/
if you currently do so. However, if you are installing a new instance of App Net Manager, you should access it athttps://www.corente.com/appnet
.- App Net Manager Lite is no longer supported
Because you no longer need to access App Net Manager from inside a Corente Services Gateway, App Net Manager Lite is not required.
- Corente Services Gateway upgrade changes
This release changes how upgrades for Corente Services Gateway take place. When an upgrade for your Corente Services Gateway becomes available, you receive a notification that the upgrade will automatically take place in the next available maintenance window after 60 days.
You can let the upgrade take place automatically during the maintenance window. Alternatively, you can schedule the upgrade to take place at a different time through App Net Manager or upgrade your Corente Services Gateway immediately.
- Cloud failover configuration
If you use Corente Cloud Services Exchange in the Oracle Public Cloud environment and use a supported third-party VPN device configuration then the Cloud Failover section is available on the Location tab in App Net Manager.
The Cloud Failover section provides a Failover Location Address field where you can specify the LAN IP address of the Corente Services Gateway you plan to use as a failover location. In the event that the IPSec tunnel to the third-party device becomes unavailable, the Corente Services Gateway forwards packets to the failover location. The failover occurs within 30 seconds.
The following diagram illustrates the cloud failover configuration:
The preceding diagram shows two Corente Services Gateways that reside on the Oracle Public Cloud network and two third-party VPN devices that reside on the customer network. You configure the Corente Services Gateways and the third-party VPN devices on the same domain in App Net Manager. The two Corente Services Gateways are not partners. You partner each Corente Services Gateway with one of the third-party VPN devices.
In a cloud failover configuration, Corente Services Gateways:
Must have an inline configuration.
Must have the same LAN configuration. Although Corente Services Gateways do have different LAN IP addresses.
Must have the same User Group configuration.
You must enable dead peer detection (DPD) for the third-party VPN devices and ensure that they have the same subnet configuration.
- Dead peer detection with third-party devices
App Net Manager lets you use dead peer detection (DPD) with third-party devices.
- Corente Services Gateway Virtual Environment edition (CVSG-VE) is now deprecated
As of this release, it is no longer possible to use Corente Services Gateway Virtual Environment edition.
