Thank you for your feedback
Leverage your dynamic metadata, SNMP alerts with metadata, protect with session discovery, and preserve session continuity to provide additional context and keep things running smooth.
Executive Summary

Headline features
Dynamic Metadata
The 23.08 release now lets you add additional context by mapping labels ingested with KPIs more easily.
- Map any label to existing metadata categories for each session to simplify data presentation and analysis
- Import and Export metadata mapping
- View dynamic metadata in the Inventory
SNMP Alerts with Metadata
Select up to 5 metadata categories to be sent over SNMP for session-based thresholds alerts to investigate performance degradation more easily.
More info can be found here:
Session Discovery Setting
We are now providing the ability to pre-provision objects or automatically create them when their data starts to appear in analytics with a simple selection.
Session Continuity Setting
You can now replace your Accedian FRUs and control whether analytics stitches objects together when IDs or names change with a simple toggle.
Additional Features
Default Direction Name Change
The Probe to Reflector nomencature is no longer a valid default direction label for session based PM data, so we've changed to using Source and Destination for the abbreviations.
Remember that you are able to provision aliases to override these defaults on a per data type basis.
For more information on this check out Set Up Direction Aliases.
UI for Transfer, trace, UDP and ICMP Echo Session Management
Users can now provision and control these new agent session types via the web UI when managing Sensor: agents.
Others
- Inclusion of trends in CSV export
- Single bundle for analytics and standalone versions of Roadrunner

- RoadRunner upgrade required with 23.08. New RoadRunner version is 0.501.0
