NSRPC shell

When the checkbox Use the nsrpc shell for administrators other than the admin account is unselected, the warning message "Administrators' console access grants them all administration privileges, and allows them to elevate their privileges across the system if they know the super-administrator password".

SNMP monitoring

STORMSHIELD-ASQ-STATS-MIB

A description was added to each OID in STORMSHIELD-ASQ-STATS-MIB to improve understanding about its role.

STORMSHIELD-ROUTE-MIB

To improve SNMP monitoring of the packet loss rate in router objects, three OIDs in INTEGER format – snsRouteUsagePrctRaw, snsRoutePacketLossPrctRaw and snsRouteUnreachPrctRaw – have been added to MIB STORMSHIELD-ROUTE-MIB.

Former OIDs in STRING format, respectively snsRouteUsagePrct, snsRoutePacketLossPrct and snsRouteUnreachPrct, still exist in this MIB, but the values that they return are tagged as obsolete.

Custom web services

The mechanism that imports web services now manages CSV files in UTF-8 format with BOM (Byte Order Mark).
