What's new for Device Partners in 09/25?

Industrial Edge Device Kit 1.26.0 (including IE Runtime)

Changed Behavior for Unsuccessful Login Attempts

The system's response to unsuccessful login attempts has been modified:

  • After 5 failed login attempts within 15 minutes, the user account will be temporarily blocked.
  • The block duration is set to 15 minutes.
  • During this period, no login attempts are possible for this account.
  • The account will be automatically unblocked after the timeout period.

Logging & Monitoring disabled by default

To improve system performance, we've changed Logging & Monitoring to be disabled by default. You can still enable this feature whenever monitoring is required.

Device Information API

New Device Information API endpoint now available in Industrial Edge Device API version 2.4.0. Access basic device details including name, ID, network configuration, and firmware information through the "/info" endpoint. Find the complete API specification in the IED API 2.4.0 documentation.

Connectivity Check & Diagnostic APIs and UI

Easily identify and resolve connectivity issues with Industrial Edge Management using our newly introduced diagnostic APIs or the new IEM Connectivity Check feature in the UI.

Industrial Edge Management HTTP Reachability Check

  • Verify the HTTP communication to your Industrial Edge Management instance
  • Choose between a verbose or simple response
  • Receive detailed error information to support troubleshooting

DNS Reachability Check (only API)

  • Test the reachability of your configured DNS servers
  • Choose between a verbose or simple response
  • Detect configuration or setup issues affecting DNS resolution
  • Obtain detailed error information to speed up problem identification

For further details and instructions on how to use these APIs, please refer to the API specs.

Guidance on how to use the new feature in the Device UI can be found here.

Resource Manager: Optional Resource Configuration Parameters

The Industrial Edge Resource Manager now supports optional resource configuration parameters as a generic concept. This enhancement allows plugin developers to introduce new resource configuration parameters as optional parameters. Application developers can then take advantage of the new resource configuration parameters while maintaining backwards compatibility to older Industrial Edge Device Kit version down to 1.26.

For implementation details, see the Resource Configuration documentation.

Device Type and Firmware Management

Industrial Edge Management now provides comprehensive device type management functionality through a redesigned user interface. This enhanced capability is accessible via Devices > Type Management in the navigation menu.

Device Type Management

  • Centralized management: View and manage all device types in one interface
  • Improved organization: Sort device types by name, origin, and architecture type
  • Enhanced navigation: Find specific device types more quickly with sorting options

Device Types Overview

Firmware Management

  • Consolidated firmware view: Access all firmware versions for a specific device type in one place
  • Complete visibility: See both global and local firmware in a single integrated list
  • Simplified navigation: Click through from device type to associated firmware collections
  • Storage optimization: Add new local firmware and remove outdated versions

Resolved Issues & Security Updates

  • Updated underlying software dependencies and libraries to address security vulnerabilities and improve system stability.
  • Upgraded to the latest stable release of Ember.js and implemented Sub Resource Integrity (SRI) to enhance security and ensure trusted resource loading.
