BTW, ISAInfo was also updated to support changes in ISABPA (and fix a few bugz). It's now version 1.2161.22 for the script and the HTA. -----Original Message----- From: isapros-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:isapros-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Steve Moffat Sent: Wednesday, July 04, 2007 7:53 AM To: isapros@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isapros] Re: Announcing ISA Server Best Practices Analyzer v5 Cool.....3 gold stars -----Original Message----- From: isapros-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:isapros-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jim Harrison Sent: Wednesday, July 04, 2007 11:03 AM To: isapros@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isapros] Announcing ISA Server Best Practices Analyzer v5 Importance: High The ISA Server Sustained Engineering Team is excited to announce the version 5.0 release of the Microsoft(c) ISA Server Best Practices Analyzer Tool (IsaBPA V5). New in Version 5 of IsaBPA: - ISA Data Packager (IDP) GUI - The IDP collects all information needed for troubleshooting with a single click, hence reducing support cost and increasing customer satisfaction. - BPA2Visio - we added a super cool application that takes the IsaBPA report and converts this report into a Visio network diagram, so that the ISA administrator and the support engineer can see how the ISA Server views its environment (networks, published web/non-web servers/server farms, CSS, VPN sites and clients). You need to have Visio 2003 or Visio 2007 installed on one of your machines (not necessary the ISA Server machine - We added new checks to Version 5. There are now 218 rules, and more than 900 settings are displayed. The focus of this release was to target Windows Server SP2 issues. This new suite joins the Hardware, Authentication, OWA, SSL Certificates, Site-to-site VPN with IPsec, WPLB, Branch Office, and logging suites that were introduced in previous IsaBPA versions. - More documentation. The UE team enhanced the Help file. It now contains more than 100 pages. You can now find which checks are being performed, how to operate the IsaBPA, and of course how to fix the found issues. - Bug fixes. We fixed a few bugs that were discovered in the previous version. You can get the IsaBPAv5 using the integrated live update mechanism or by simply going to http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=D22EC2B9-4CD3-4 BB6-91EC-0829E5F84063 and downloading the new version.
