v24.6.8 - 🔄 Sync Hub, 🔌Plugins Unloading, 🔔 UI Notifications
Alright, let's see how many bugs I missed. This is a big release 🎁
This month's NetAlertX release includes three big new features: In-app user notifications, Plugin unloading with the LOADED_PLUGINS setting (making the app much faster), and a new Sync Hub (🧪) plugin. This will enable you to synchronize data from otherwise unscannable LANs/VLANs into one NetAlertX instance. Read the guide here.
Also, you can now get Reconnected devices notifications 📶 of devices that trigger down alerts.
Thank you to everyone in the community helping with this release, especially @vladaurosh 🙏 who helped me keep the docker image small even with the need for some of the cryptography libraries for the new functionality.
I also scored the @NetAlertX Twitter handle, let's see if I'll use it 😅
