AOVPN DPC: Version 3.0 is Now Available

July 21, 2022

AOVPN Dynamic Profile Configurator Version 3.0 is Now Live

DPC has been in public now for over a year and what an amazing year it’s been!

After talking to customers it’s been great to see that our original vision of creating an easy to use, on-premises AoVPN management tool has been validated.

We’ve also had a great opportunity to speak to people across the globe who are using AoVPN in ways we had never imagined.

What’s Changed?

Since the public announcement we’ve introduced the following functionality:

SSTP / VPN Strategy Support
Added Protocol Priority Support
Added Route Metric Support

Added Interface Metric Support
Added Network Outage Time Support
Added Disable Credential Caching Support
Added Register DNS in User Tunnel Support
Added the Ability to allow potential customers to trial the solution

Made significant code, stability and resilience improvements

Based on these new insights we’ve been developing a new major version which we are numbering Version 3.0. This is both due to the significant number of improvements, as well as due to the significant changes we’ve made to the core profile management engine.

While we have every confidence in the product we strongly advise that V3 is piloted to avoid unexpected behaviour impacting significant numbers of users.

So What’s in V3.0?

Improved reliability of core profile deployment
Implemented Traffic Filters for both User and Device Tunnels

Crytobinding is now configured by default
Exported XML Profiles are now automatically formatted and indented
Profile Names are now validated by Windows rather than DPC directly, allowing for a much wider range of characters
User Tunnel can now be configured not to be always on
Option to show Device Tunnel in the connections list

Support for TLS 1.3 access (Where OS and Server Supports it)
Added the ability to deploy a backup / second User Tunnel (not always on)
URLs can be dynamically converted to IP addresses in the route list
Added Smart Card Support

Where’s Windows 11 Support?

Coming! We’ve been working closely with the Microsoft Support Team and Windows Product Group to isolate and fix the bugs stopping DPC from working on Windows 11.

The initial issue has been identified and fixed by Microsoft (pending release) however there are additional issues which we are still working through. Once these issues have been resolved and patches released to the public we will announce support and minimum Windows 11 patch levels.
