Subject:  General Availability Announcement for SGAC (Edge SWG Admin Console) 2.1.5.1

On behalf of Broadcom, we appreciate your business and the opportunity to provide you with high-quality, innovative software and services.  As part of our ongoing commitment to customer success, we regularly release updated versions of our products. Today, we are pleased to announce that SGAC 2.1.5.1 is now available, including the following changes:

• The health monitoring metric for HTTP client utilization provides the percentage of the maximum amount of simultaneous HTTP client sessions that the appliance is currently processing. You can view the HTTP Client Utilization in the Admin Console (Reports > Health Monitoring > General).
• View statistics for proxied sessions and bypassed connections (Reports > Sessions). You can terminate and clear historical errored sessions for proxied sessions. You can also download information for both proxied sessions and bypassed connections. The Sessions page replaces the Active Sessions page.
• Ensure your local passwords on the Edge SWG appliance are secure and strong (Configuration > Authentication > Password Policy). Enforce requirements, such as minimum length, characters used, the number of passwords the appliance saves to compare new passwords against, and whether common words or whitespace are allowed.
• Configure an SSL device profile and username for the SSL device when configuring SMTP email notifications (Administration > Logging > Event Logging).

This release:

• SWGMGT-8827 - Fixes an issue where the maximum character limit was incorrect for interfaces and VLANs.
