Pending issues: Windows interface

Introduction

This page is used as a sort of bug tracking system for known issues, next fixes, what is done etc. to the Windows FreeNAC GUI. It tracks changes since V3.0. Bugzilla is not used because its consider slow and clunky. We may use a trac later, but for now...

If you want to have something moved up to priority, or submit a new entry, please use the Support forum, or the comments below.

Issues: priority

• None

Issues: others

1. Lookups: don't allow location 1 (default) to be changed
2. Overview: Right click *several* rows to set status or vlan.
3. if you add a new vlan to the windows gui, you need to close the gui and restart it in order for the vlan to show up under the "edit devices" section
   http://freenac.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=258
4. New Wsus tab: list systems & expand to list of patches. Right click to edit end device.
5. Edit:
   • user lookups: need to post for details to appear.
   • User drop down list only shows Username
   • vlan colour by lookup, not just INO
6. Admin: Add snmp scan-now button?
7. Config: tick boxes to enable modules
8. Vlans: Allow colour to be changed in GUI?
9. Edit cabletype table
10. Users: Add search or lookup. Sync with user for this device from the edit tab
11. Ports:
    • Ports page sometime slow to load
    • copy/move popup from ports to switches, ports -> pop patch
    • right click to get patch details, or add office & users
    • right click to delete several selected ports?
    • you can change switch name & port name (even though these are normally documented automatically), which allows for a manipulation error. We need to be able to change these fields to insert new ports though.
12. Switches
    • The 'shutdown' field in the sub-port list is not displaying correctly. (An analysis of the configuration of the grid element has not explained why).
13. Reporting:
    • OS versions, end-device security.
    • autosize columns, they are too big.
    • New statistics window?
    • Create reporting directory with some standard layouts?
14. Patchcable: show etage01
15. Performance:
    • Unknowns don't appear fast enough in the GUI?
    • Load the 'Computer users in office' query on startup, only once, and save in memory?
    • What else can be done to improve speed?
16. Delphi: clean-up & publish sources? We need several, proprietary libraries anyway (MyDac, cxgrid), so will GPL'ing it help much?
17. The ChangeDate field in the systems table is a string instead of a datetime field.

Done
