Configuration to Allow or Disallow Registration of Unknown Devices Now Working Properly
The Allow Adding Unknown Hosts and Allow Server Without Activation IDs system configuration settings are now working correctly to ensure that unknown standalone and server devices can be properly registered or disallowed registration depending on this configuration. Additionally, appropriate error messages are now displayed when registration is denied.
Unknown Device Registration Now Succeeds on First Attempt
Previously, the first capability request sent by an unknown device was denied if that device was attempting to self-register with an activation ID for an entitlement owned by a partner account only. The self-registration failed, showing the following error in the capability request: The activation ID was denied. However, a subsequent capability request would succeed.
This issue has been resolved so that device registration succeeds with the initial registration request.
Return of Devices Successful with or without Destination Devices
The Return Device feature now supports the return of devices with or without a destination device ID. Previously, device returns were erroneously requiring a destination device.
