Adobe Flash end of support 2020 - WING GUI 5.9.x/7.x

[Raul_Carbonari]

There is a GUI migration plan based on FLASH for other technologies such as HTML5 before the end of support by Adobe and most browsers in Dec / 2020. Or we will suffer the same type of nightmare that exists with JAVA-based GUIs that were never updated again.

You can configure Flash to work for certain sites by using mms.cfg. See for example the VMware documentation on how to set it up

EOLUninstallDisable=1
EnableAllowList=1
AllowListPreview=1
AllowListUrlPattern=https://FQDN_Of_The_Target_System/

Looks like the release is now scheduled for tomorrow noon. I’ll keep you all updated if I hear more.

We are working on a new version of WingMan as we speak, this is obviously a high priority. The current target release is for tonight, barring any further setbacks. You can also consult this guide for updates as well: https://extremeportal.force.com/ExtrArticleDetail?an=000092008

Thanks for hanging in there with me everyone, I’ll keep you posted as I hear more.

Hi,

I’d say Konrad’s approach to have a VM might be the cleanest, yet the most effortful workaround. A securely accessed VM only able to communicate with WiNG controller IP.

Cheers,

Tomasz
