Description
Infoblox NIOS version 8.5.3 introduces robust multi-cloud integration and automation capabilities, bolstering DDI reliability and control while enhancing the user experience for service providers managing hybrid networks of various scales—both in the present and future. This release enhances security via Access Control Lists (ACLs), which empower administrators to oversee network and IP access alongside permissions for specific zones. In version 8.6.0, users can link physical and virtual appliances for hybrid high availability, further elevating reliability, redundancy, and the overall customer experience during migration processes. Enhanced privacy, security, and control are achieved with the addition of DNS over TLS (DoT) and DNS over HTTPS (DoH), as well as improved proxy functionalities. NIOS 8.6.0 also introduces consolidated health monitoring settings for DNS Traffic Controller (DTC), allowing all members to perform health checks and communicate their statuses effectively. Furthermore, it provides a new LBDN Query Configuration, which facilitates comprehensive health check updates, ensuring greater reliability. Lastly, the introduction of source IP hash load balancing in NIOS 8.6.0 enhances connection persistence during instances of disconnection and reconnection. This comprehensive suite of features positions NIOS as a leader in DDI solutions for evolving network demands.
