Ubuntu 18.04 LTS will reach on June 30th, 2023. After this date, agents will no longer be able to communicate with the ThousandEyes platform.
The OS is currently in the stage of its lifecycle. ThousandEyes will no longer provide technical support, nor guarantee software updates (including bug fixes) for customers still running Enterprise Agents on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. The OS for these agents must be upgraded before July 1st, 2023.
In-place upgrades for ThousandEyes Enterprise Agents running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS ("Bionic") are supported for virtual appliances, Intel NUCs, and Raspberry Pis, and instructions are available for upgrading a single agent, bulk agents, and agents using proxies.
To review the upgrade instructions, see .
For additional questions, please reach out to ThousandEyes Customer Success or ThousandEyes Support.
As a result of this change, any data prior to May 17th, 2023 will not be able to use this label. If you have a dashboard widget with this filter set, the data will only go back to May 17th.
We’ve added a new time series graph titled Throughput & Quality Analysis to the Recommendation Detail and Site Detail modals. This graph shows, for a given path or interface, the current throughput by application. This is useful when evaluating path recommendations and site quality, to eliminate high bandwidth utilization as the cause of the degraded quality. The Interface Quality metric shown on this graph indicates the quality of a single interface, whereas Path Quality can show the combined quality scores of several interfaces.
At ThousandEyes, we prioritize security and privacy as essential aspects of our services. We are committed to maintaining a robust security posture to ensure our clients' safety. To enhance our security offerings, we have introduced a new feature on our platform - Forced Single Sign-On (SSO). When enabled, Forced SSO will prevent your users from using local authentication and instead direct all users to the SSO experience through your preset identity provider (IdP). Forced SSO enables you to gate and fully control access to ThousandEyes resources based on your internal organizational structure and access permissions. This gives you added confidence that your users are logging in to the ThousandEyes platform in a consistent, secure way.
On July 12, 2023, there will be an update to the configuration of the automated session tests for Microsoft Teams. This update will enable the AST tests to run even when a TCP connection is being used in addition to the current UDP functionality. As a result, you will notice a higher number of AST test matches for clients using TCP during your Microsoft Teams meeting.
Dynamic baselines are now supported for Endpoint Agent scheduled test alerts. This functionality is identical to dynamic baselines for Cloud and Enterprise agent alerts.
The baseline for a specific metric is calculated using the preceding 24-hour window. The scheduled test metrics that support dynamic baselines are:
Web HTTP Server Metrics
Web – Endpoint HTTP Server – Connect Time
Web – Endpoint HTTP Server – DNS Time
Web – Endpoint HTTP Server – Receive Time
Web – Endpoint HTTP Server – Response Time
Web – Endpoint HTTP Server – SSL Negotiation Time
Web – Endpoint HTTP Server – Throughput
Web – Endpoint HTTP Server – Total Time
Web – Endpoint HTTP Server – Wait Time
Network Metrics
Network – Endpoint End to End (Server) – Jitter
Network – Endpoint End to End (Server) – Latency
The custom webhooks integration now supports Internet Insights Outage Alerts.
Resolved an issue that was preventing the "Markers" filter in a dashboard widget from properly populating for any shared transaction test.
As , we have deprecated the existing Monitored Network classification in the platform and instead are generating a label for every existing monitored network using the defined CIDR as a network filter. We have now finalized the migration of existing dashboard widget filters to the new label as well. Dashboards that previously had the Monitored Network filter will now have their new automatically generated label instead.
Page load and transaction tests will now have instant tests enabled for customers using .
