The Inverse team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of PacketFence 4.0. This is a major release bringing a brand new web administrative interface, several shiny new features, enhancements, and bug fixes. This release is considered ready for production use.

Packet Fence 4.0 introduces a brand new modern, fast and responsive web administrative interface. It also simplifies the definition of authentication sources in one place and allows dynamic computation of roles. The portal profiles can now be entirely managed from the web interface, simplifying their definitions and eliminating possible configuration mistakes. Using a centralized caching system, configuration is now propagated instantaneously – absolutely no downtime required!
