What’s New in Version 6.3

What’s New in Version 6.3

The new features for COS 6.3 are:

New Embedded Web Server

Not only is the look and feel different, but the database and the web server
engine are new and more flexible.

The design of the new web server is geared to make navigation easier, pro-
viding the most commonly used items first. Context-sensitive help is pro-
vided.

Maintenance Enhancements

The maintenance enhancements are:

Computer Names

In addition to the IP address, the computer name is now listed in the DHCP
lease table and the WAN users table. This allows users to more easily iden-
tify the computers in these tables. The computer name is only known if
using DHCP to get its IP address.

Updater

This application, Updater Version 1.1, prepares the Gateway for installation
of COS 6.3

Updater V 1.1 is required for users running COS 5.6.2 or lower.
