Network Stories Auto-Closure Enhancements: In the coming weeks, we're updating the conditions for automatically closing Network Stories, even when the issue isn't fully resolved. These are the new conditions for closing stories:
- 30 days old – Closed to ensure fresh tracking if the issue recurs
- Story requires revalidation – An issue was detected with the story, and the Network XDR engine validates and reopens it if the issue recurs
- Configuration change – An entity in the story (link, site, BGP range, host) is no longer relevant due to configuration updates
- Terraform Modules for Bulk Firewall Provisioning: The new Internet (bulk-if-rules) and WAN (bulk-wan-rules) modules let you automate large-scale provisioning of Internet and WAN firewall policies using Infrastructure as Code. They integrate with CI/CD pipelines and support concurrent policy management, enabling multiple admins to edit and publish the firewall security policies in parallel.
