🛠️ Issues resolved
| Description | Resolution |
|---|---|
| If the MMC plugin was not installed during setup of the BeyondTrust Management Console, opening a user's properties in Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC) using the FIND function would throw an exception | This has been resolved by improving how ADUC handles missing plugin components. The user properties dialog box now opens without error, regardless of how the user is accessed. |
| The Set Local Parameters fields in both the Reporting Connection Manager and the BeyondTrust Management Console accepted alphabetic characters, even though they were intended to be numeric-only. This could lead to invalid input being saved. | This has been resolved by enforcing numeric-only input in the Set Local Parameters fields, ensuring consistent and correct configuration. |
⏰ Deprecation notice
BeyondInsight reporting connection removed
Starting with BeyondInsight version 25.1, support for AD Bridge data has been discontinued. Consequently, the AD Bridge reporting connector to BeyondInsight has been removed. This change affects any existing reporting or integration workflows that previously used AD Bridge data within BeyondInsight. Users are encouraged to review their current configurations and consider alternative reporting approaches to maintain operational continuity.
SNMP
Due to lack of demand, SNMP has been removed from the policy editor.
