| Category | Feature | Detailed Description and Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Private Access | Steering Configuration Options | With the rollout of Netskope Release 81.1.1, NPA administrators now have additional steering configuration options for when the Netskope Client is detected as being On-Premise. When On-Premise, customers can choose to either enable or disable NPA functionality, and can also select from the same options when not On-Premise. If an Alternative Steering option (GRE, IPSec, and so on) is detected, NPA Administrators can also configure NPA to be enabled or disabled (default). |
| Private Access | High Availability and Load Balancing | With the rollout of Netskope Release 81.1.1, all connected NPA Publishers are not treated as Active for High Availability and Load Balancing purposes. Also, customers now have the option of assigning up to 16 publishers to each private app definition. |
| Category | Issue Number | Issue Description |
|---|---|---|
| Steering | 120299 | For devices running macOS 11 (macOS Big Sur): If the Netskope Client auto upgrades to 81.1.1 from 81.0.0 or an older version, the user is prompted to enter credentials to remove the DNS proxy. If the user cancels the credential prompt, the DNS proxy continues to exist in the user's system. The user must manually remove the DNS proxy from Network Preferences, or the Netskope Client prompts for credentials during system restart to remove the DNS proxy. If DNS proxy is not removed, there may be DNS resolution issues resulting in loss of network connectivity. |

| Steering | 118330 | macOS Big Sur support: Manual upgrade from 81.0.0 to 81.0.1 removes the DNS proxy. However, if the installed Netskope Client is version 80 or prior, admins must manually uninstall the DNS proxy from the operating system Network Preference. |
| Steering | 119164 | macOS Big Sur support: The client supports the proxy hostname if it is configured on the endpoint. |
