New Features
Cloud Web

Connector
The 8.0 release introduces a new configuration mode, which allows you to connect 
to and direct traffic to Cisco Cloud Web Security for policy enforcement and threat 
defense. Documentation for the Cloud Connector is in Chapter 3 of the User Guide, 
“Connect the Appliance to a Cloud Web Security Tower.” To put the Web Security 
appliance in Cloud Connector mode, begin with “Configuring the Cloud 
Connector.”
Note
After upgrading to AsyncOS 8.0, if you plan to use the appliance in Cloud 
Connector mode, do not put the appliance into Standard mode using the 
System Setup Wizard. Put the appliance directly into Cloud Connector 
mode.
