Metasys Server and UI enhancements
|
-
Server IP Controller Integration: Metasys ADS and ADX servers can now support up
to 800 IP controllers (and other devices on the IP
integration, such as an IP meter or VRF) through direct
BACnet/IP integrations without the need for additional
Metasys engines. This provides flexibility and scalability
when designing a Metasys installation.
-
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.1X Device
Management: Metasys ADS and ADX servers now support
IEEE 802.1X port-based authentication, enabling an IT
department to explicitly allow a device to communicate
within their network to further enhance network security.
-
IPv6 support: Metasys ADS and ADX servers now include support for IPv6 to allow
Metasys products to exist within large enterprise and
government IT networks.
-
OAuth with OpenID Connect (OIDC) and Group to Role mapping: Metasys ADS and ADX
servers now support single sign-on with external identity
providers and allow for automatic creation of users to
enable IT departments to manage user permissions centrally
without working in multiple systems.
-
LDAP Secure Support: Active Directory over LDAP Secure facilitates single
sign-on and two-factor authentication for Metasys UI users
providing secure, encrypted communication, and ensuring
sensitive data is protected.
-
Energy Dashboard and Reporting: Metasys ADS and ADX servers can now be licensed
to provide a new way to visualize energy consumption, energy
usage, and energy production data through rebuilt dashboards
and widgets. This new functionality is being offered on a
trial basis through a trial license.
-
New Graphics Editor User Permissions: Metasys UI now supports additional user
permissions to allow for non-administrative users to create
and edit Metasys UI graphics.
-
System Activity Enhancements: Metasys UI System Activity now supports viewing
the current status of alarms and events to help with system
troubleshooting.
-
Warning Banners: Metasys UI now supports enabling
United States government agency Warning Banners providing
the flexibility needed for Metasys installations required to
meet U.S. Department of Defence (DoD), U.S. General Services
Administration (GSA), U.S. Department of Transporation (DOT)
or Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) standards.
