FireMon is pleased to provide this overview of the new features and enhancements made for this Lumeta Enterprise Edition 4.3 release, which is recommended for all users. 

Lumeta Enterprise Edition 4.3

The upgrade file is available now in FireMon User Center > Downloads.
The supported upgrade path to Lumeta Command Center 4.3 is from either the 4.1x and 4.2x versions.

For the upgrade procedure, see Upgrading to Lumeta Enterprise Edition 4.3.


We recommend that you upgrade your Lumeta Enterprise Scouts when you upgrade your Command Center. However, Enterprise Scouts 4.1x and later are compatible with the 4.3 version of the Command Center. 

Lumeta 4.3 is compatible with Lumeta Cloud Scout 1.1 (release 1.20200401.105457.dev). No changes have been made to Lumeta CloudVisibility. 

Documentation

On the main menu, we've added a Help tab from which you can access the Lumeta API Reference in Swagger and this Support site, https://lumetadocs.firemon.com/.

Database Update

The Lumeta 4.3 platform uses PostgreSQL 13 database, which is an upgrade from PostgreSQL 9.6.

Scout Enhancements

A variety of support tools previously available only on Command Centers, including the capability to download a log bundle, are available from your Enterprise Scout GUI.  On your Enterprise Scout, navigate to Settings > Support Tools to see the additions. 


Integration with Security Manager

Lumeta's integration with Security Manager has been enhanced as follows:

  1. All devices for which interface data is present, regardless of whether route data is present, are forwarded to FireMon Security Manager.
  2. Devices pushed from Lumeta to Security Manager are labeled by their "sysname" rather than their IP address. The IP Address is already listed under the Management IP column.
  3. Lumeta does not push 0.0.0.0/0, which would allow traffic from any IPv4. 
  4. Lumeta removes duplicate devices before pushing them to Security Manager.

Operational Technology (OT) Dashboard

Lumeta introduces the mapping of operational technology vendors to IEEE data. This new capability will give you visibility on the OT devices in your environment. 

The out-of-the-box OT dashboard, shown below, will enable you to distinguish between Operational Technology (OT) and Information Technology (IT) while also providing the device details associated with each piece of equipment. 




DNS

  1. Wondering which DNS server is configured on your Command Center? 
    1. Browse to your DNS identifier from Settings > Zones > DNS.


    2. See the identifier on Settings > Lumeta Systems  > System Information


  2. DNS lookup has been add as a support tool from Settings > Support Tools  > DNS Lookup.


  3. DNS configuration commands have been added to the CLI. 

    ObjectiveCommand
    Check the values via CLIsystem dns
    Change the setting manuallysystem dns manual "172.16.22.5,172.16.22.6"
    Check the current values in the config filecat /etc/resolv.conf
    Check the help outputsystem dns<tab> system dns manual<?> system dns dhcp<?>

Interfaces

Additional Command Center and Enterprise Scout interfaces may be configured via the CLI or API without having to reinitialize the systems. More granular interface configuration management has been added via CLI submenus. You can see the multiple interfaces on Settings > Lumeta Systems > Interfaces.



CLI
"interface add" and "interface configure

  1. DHCP
  2. Static

API
@POST @Path("/interface/configure")
        POST "/api/rest/system/interface/configure?iface=$h{name}"

External Data Connector (EDC)

All External Data Connector (EDC) requests are checked against the Target and Eligible Lists. 

Additional Device Attribute

A "true" or "false" Forwarding attribute displays in the Device Details > Attributes > System column to indicate based on SNMP response whether the device described in that row forwards traffic. 



Technical Note

Our product is called "Lumeta" on the GUI, CLI, and API. The legacy names "Spectre" and "ESI" have been removed or replaced. However, the default hostname and root prompt is programmed to be "esi-" followed by the hex encoded IP address. This instance is temporary and will only remain until your system admin changes the host name. 


Security Updates & STIG 

Lumeta 4.3 resolves Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures (CVEs) and incorporates a variety of security-related (and non-security-related) enhancements. See Security Advisories 4.3 (coming soon) for a list of CVEs resolved in this Lumeta 4.3 release.
