Features Introduced in Previous Versions

In some cases, if you apply an access control rule referencing a network 

object or group that has been previously deleted to a Defense Center in a 

high availability configuration, the system does not recognize the network 

object or group is deleted and experiences issues. As a workaround, delete 

the rule containing the deleted object or group and recreate, then apply 

policy. (CSCut54187)

In some cases, your 3D8xx device may experience an error and lose control 

and info channels. (CSCut98395)
