[FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]Greetings! We just released the 7.504 Up2Date in our normal "soft" policy. For those who just like to download, you can find it on our ftp here: ftp://ftp.astaro.de/pub/ASG/v7/up2date/u2d-sys-7.504.tgz.gpg at about 175MB in size.
Overview
[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]Our main reason is to enable the WebAdmin for our RED testers. I'll briefly mention RED here now. RED is our new Remote Ethernet Device which acts basically as a long Ethernet cable to a branch office, requiring no configuration or management. It just "brings" the small remote site directly into the connected ASG as an Interface, which is a totally new way of working with remote locations. It is in limited BETA now by about 50 customers and partners and next week you'll be able to see it and hear more about it during CeBIT in Germany and RSA in San Francisco. Apologies, but we currently do not have more capacity for RED Beta testers.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]Further, this release has a few new features, such as the ability to totally remove (de-proxy) sites from the HTTPS filter using new functionality for exceptions (thus passing them out the packet filter). You will find as well you can now make exceptions there by Category. Also new is the support for hosting of a Proxy PAC file, and for privacy - the ability to remove some HTTP events completely from logging (and subsequently reporting).[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]There are also dozens of bugfixes, tweaks, and stability changes.

RED TESTERS: Your device will perform a firmware upgrade (fancy blinking LEDs) - do not power off the RED unit while upgrading, this is "crossing the streams" bad if you do.[/SIZE][/FONT]
