Easier Agent Management, Re-enrollment & Cleanup: The new Agent Management web dashboard uncomplicates the task of overseeing communications between your agents and Recast Management Server. Find out when an agent last connected to an agent gateway, and the specific gateway to which an agent connects, to pinpoint connectivity issues. To learn more, see Agent Management Dashboard. You'll also find agent connection details on the Recast Agents page, where you'll now see faster page loading speeds when there are many agents. Behind the scenes, we've added automatic agent re-enrollment, as well as an agent cleanup process that automatically removes inactive and duplicate agents, which means less time spent manually managing agents that fail to communicate with RMS. Minimum Recast Software Version: 5.9.2505.2307
