Released: ISA 2006 Service Pack 1

Posted by Bharat Suneja at 4:25 PM
ISA Server 2006 SP1 has been released. SP1 brings some new features, and improvements such as support for SAN certificates. Download SP1.

New features:
  • Configuration Change Tracking: Registers all configuration changes applied to ISA Server to help you assess issues that may occur as a result of these changes.
  • Test Button: Tests the consistency of a Web publishing rule between the published server and ISA Server.
  • Traffic Simulator:Simulates network traffic in accordance with specified request parameters, such as an internal user and the Web server, providing information about firewall policy rules evaluated for the request.
  • Diagnostic Logging Viewer: Now integrated as a tab into the ISA Server Management console, this feature displays detailed events on packet progress and provides information about handling and rule matching.


Improvements for existing features:
  • Support for integrated NLB mode in all three modes, including unicast, multicast, and multicast with Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP). Previously, ISA Server integrated NLB-supported unicast mode only.
  • Support for use of server certificates containing multiple Subject Alternative Name (SAN) entries. Previously, ISA Server was able to use either only either the subject name (common name) of a server certificate, or the first entry in the SAN list.
  • Support for KCD cross-domain authentication. Credentials from users located in a different domain than the ISA Server, but in the same Forest, can now be delegated to an internal published Web site by using KCD .
  • Support for client certificate authentication in a workgroup deployment. This removes the requirement to map each client certificate to an Active Directory® directory user account when forms-based authentication is used as the primary authentication method and client certificates are used as the secondary method.
