Import Add-ons from The DC Hub
You can import and install add-ons from the DC Hub to enhance various Apstra features. These add-ons contain pre-configured components from various repositories that extend and enhance your Apstra deployment.
The DC Hub is a comprehensive platform that allows you to browse, import, and manage add-ons for Apstra. Through the Hub, you can browse available add-ons and import them directly onto your Apstra environment to add custom functionality for your specific requirements.
You can import an AnalyticsPack to deploy dashboards for more in-depth network insights. You can also import a FeaturePack that provides enhanced capabilities for specialized use cases.

Set Preferred Portal for Organization-Level Application Access
Administrators can set a preferred application portal for the organization.
This setting determines which portal users are redirected to when they log in through an Identity Provider (IdP). By specifying a primary portal, admins can streamline user access to the most relevant business application for the organization.
View Support Status of Your Devices from the Installed Base
You can view the support status of your devices from the Installed Base tab in JSI. Devices with an active support contract are recognized as Supported and are eligible for JTAC services. Devices with an expired support contract are marked as Unsupported and may not be eligible for JTAC services.
Monitoring the contract status helps you ensure that your devices remain eligible for JTAC services and allows you to prioritize renewals before contracts expire. Use this feature to track support coverage across your inventory, identify devices with expired contracts, and prioritize renewals.
