SCC-5357 Replacement of EdgeMarc 4550 with EdgeMarc 2900
EdgeMarc consumers can easily migrate to newer hardware platform (for eg: from older EdgeMarc 4550 to the latest EdgeMarc 2900 platform). EdgeView 15 uses ZTP for provisioning for the replacement EdgeMarc 2900.

New EdgeMarc 300 series platform is supported.

SCC-6036 EdgeMarc Hostname Syncing/Learning
When EdgeMarc is registered by default, EdgeView sets the device name on it as a combination of Device-type and MAC address. If EdgeMarc sends the hostname in the register request data using the hostname from its configuration files, then EdgeView uses the same hostname as EdgeMarc and not the default one.
SCC-5957 Key Items Required to run on EdgeView 15 Report

SCC-6558 On-demand Packet Capture
This feature allows to collect packet capture for all WAN, LAN or both the interfaces on EdgeMarcs through EdgeView. User requests capture parameters like size, time & capture filters. EdgeMarc starts uploading pcap files to EdgeView which are stored in a single pcap file. When one of the conditions/parameters satisfies, then capture completes. The uploaded pcap data can then be downloaded from the UI for COMPLETE or FAILED captures, any.
SCC-6555 Collection Policy with Additional Capability
This new capability under the Collection Policy section allows provisioning defined to have multiple child services specific to that device, identified by a MAC.
