| WS-NOC - Anti-Theft Solution - Management Loss Detection | The Anti Theft feature is introduced to protect the entire NE from theft, which could run without WS-NOC, or with WS-NOC and not enabled with the ATP Key. With this new feature, NEs with active and keyed ATP feature will check if the connection of WS-NOC is with the right ATP key. The MANAGEMENT LOSS alarm is raised after 5 days if there is no connection between WS-NOC and NE. After 90 days, if there is no WS-NOC connection then the NE will shutdown the applicable cards that have an ATP key. |
| WS-NOC to support FIPS crypto policies |
FIPS crypto policies that are enabled at the RHEL OS level. The restrictions in Release R24.6 are WS-SE, WS-HA, WS-P, corba-node-management, mnc-rabbitmq, mnc-workflow, ext-pm |

| Store a configurable number of OTDR files |
The storage of OTDR files are modified in two ways: The retention is based on a mix of several days and the number of files rather than the number of days only. In this way, a customer with a limited number of fibers and moderate scan frequency may store the data for a few months. There is a new purge policy such that files older than 45 days and matching specific criteria are deleted. |
| Sec-Cust - User Activity Jobs visible and executable by owners and admin | WS-NOC restricts the visibility of jobs (Administer --> Jobs page) to owners or administrators. Non admin user can view and operate only the jobs owned by them. Admin user can access to all jobs. There is a specific FAD ManageJobAccess to grant privileges to view all jobs listed at Administer --> Jobs Page: it is assigned to default admin profile and may be assigned flexibly to other profiles. The feature is optional, there is a System preference Jobs Access Control to enable it (default is enabled). |
| Support for Secure version of the time synchronization protocol | WS-NOC supports secure version of NTP. |
