AVB hopcount information: The largest AVB hopcount is now shown in the bottom of the AVB
network window. This hopcount is a best case scenario counting only hops through GigaCores
switches. This facilitates adhering to certain networking design rules to minimize latency on critical
network paths (B).
Tooltip added to AVB hopcount (C).
Multiple AVB networks: Using the grandmaster clock as a unique identifier, Araneo now supports
monitoring of different AVB networks and users can select which one they need to monitor (D).

LumiNode: Discovery of LumiNodes in the network is now supported using mDNS.
LumiNode: LumiNodes in the network are now being visualised as an enriched edge device, displaying
Model name, FW version and IP adress.

LumiNode: The firmware of all LumiNodes in the network can be upgraded at once, saving time andimproving consistency across the network.

LumiNode: Utilities have been added which allow reboot, identify, reset, etc…

Project info: To increase the ease of use and help you manage the project in an easier way, additional
information can now be added to your project such as comments, contact information etc.

Port legends in log messages: Araneo now displays the port legend in the log messages, in addition
to the port number (E).

E

Automatic backups: In networks where a single instance of Araneo is being used on the same PC,a backup file of the Online / Project mode is saved every 60s. The backup file is stored in the application
data folder. When Araneo is closed cleanly, these backup files are being removed. This allows the user
to continue working should an unexpected application event occur.
Sortable tables: Users can now sort the traffic, PoE, AVB and IGMP tables on the various columns. Bothin ascending and descending order. Additionally, the global AVB network table is also made sortableto facilitate monitorring.

Quick tools box selection: In project mode, multiple ports can be selected at once to speed up workflow (F).

F

Stored views: To increase ease of navigation in larger networks, up to 10 area views can be stored andthe user can jump to focus on each area easily by selecting the view from the visual miniatures. Eachview can be custom-named by the user. Shortcuts can also be used: Ctrl+number key to store a viewand just a number key to recall a view.

PoE Icon: A PoE icon now indicated when a GigaCore switch is PoE capable.

Inconsistent vlan id warning: Added a warning when vlan id’s are found to be inconsistent.
This message can be found in the advanced group configuration dialog window.

GigaCore discovery through mDNS: This allows GigaCores to be discovered thatare outside of the IP range of a user’s network interface. GigaCore’s which are discovered, but cannot
be reached will have their IP address shown in orange. Using this discovery mechanisn also means it is
no longer mandatory to have RLinkX enabled on the port that connects to Araneo.
Settings window: The Araneo settings window has been completely restyled to offer a more intuitive
grouping of functions and a better overview.

Pin elements to the canvas: A pin feature has been added to GigaCore devices and zones. Pinned
items cannot be moved nor modified on the Araneo canvas. This feature provides an additional tool in
the workflow.

Improved mouse scroll behaviour.

on the graph.
Fixed a bug where setting the port speeds failed when settings are not applied to all ports of a GigaCore.
Fixed a memory bug which could cause a crash when closing the port configuration window afterselecting/deselecting a PoE capable port.
Fixed an issue where LED brightness wasn’t restored when loading project .
Fixed a bug where some tooltips didn’t fade after moving to another button.

When two GigaCore are connected through a LumiNode, Araneo will show a direct connection between
the GigaCores and no connections to the LumiNode.
Users of Araneo 1.3.0 will not retrieve a prompt from within Areneo when 1.4.0 will be available This isdue to a bug in the framework and beyond Araneo to detect.
The advised workaround for this is to launch the updater executable manually by going toc:/program files/Araneo/updater.exe, for Windows. /Applications/Araneo/AraneoUpdater.app, forMacOs.
