Router objects - Monitoring gateways over ICMP

Support reference TAC-1077

Now twice by as many gateways can be monitored via ICMP.

Authentication

Logs now show events relating to failed administrator authentication attempts when the maximum number of simultaneous administration sessions has been reached.

Virtual firewalls - Setting the super-administrator password

Support reference TAC-1367

When the super-administrator password is being set the first time the EVA is started in SNS version 5, the reasons for which the password is rejected are now shown if the password does not meet the password policy requirements, which are a minimum default length of 16 characters, and an entropy value of 64.
