As APN 5.2 now supports the ability for a T5200, functioning as an NCN, to create up to 550 static Conduits. In turn, Aware 2.2 also has the capability to poll as many as 550 APN Appliances.

APN 5.2 provides a firewall built into the Oracle Application. The firewall allows Policies between Services and Zones, and supports Static NAT, Dynamic NAT (PAT), and Dynamic NAT with Port Forwarding. Additionally, using Aware R2.2 provides the user with the ability to log firewall connections and flow logs to an external syslog server.

To enable the Firewall Logs to Syslog Feature, navigate to Manage > APN Appliance Settings and check the box that says Include in File in the Notification Settings section. Enable the feature and include the appropriate server IP address.

As of APN 5.2, devices on the same network as the Appliance's LAN/VLAN interface may now use the Oracle DHCP Relay & DHCP Server features to provide those devices with their IP configuration. These features help to simplify the client site network by reducing the amount of equipment necessary. The configuration changes necessary to utilize this feature can be executed from the web UI of Aware 2.2 under Manage > APN Configuration.
