Improvement

Fix

What's new:

• Our fresh new VMWare client received a major improvement as we migrated to our own VMWare API. The whole process is now more secure, faster, and visible.
• HQ's REST API now supports multiple tokens for the same IP as we added an extra HTTP header Client-ID. We also included IPv4/IPv6 ranges in the pattern format (eg. 192.168..) and in CIDR/subnet format (eg. 192.168.0.0/16) to this update.
• Last Actions & Changes Log now works much smoother.
• We added backup logs (sneak peek to the upcoming Backup Restore functionality 👀).
• Implemented adding wildcard host records for DNS zones.

Improvements:

• Device provisioning will work even better. Now it is worker-agnostic, so it won't fail if any worker's job fails.
• Persistent storage is now being displayed in the 'newest first' order by default.
• Updated guest VMWare tools for WAF and Load balancers.
• Now users can add the network link for Internal IP on the Firewall page.
• Added a way to collect the usage info through the device's ID. 

Fixes:

• Device creation errors
• Device selection when creating a persistent storage
• device import
• Invalid IP Address highlight prompt
• Snapshot creation that produced a duplicate
• Second HDD availability after extension
• Subtenant reports issues
• Service accounts problem after k8s v1.25 update
• Not editable device if there was no network connected
• Firewall and Load balancer creation
