CoPilot and Controller Interoperability
CoPilot is deployed as an all-in-one virtual appliance and is available on multiple clouds including AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI Marketplaces. CoPilot works in tandem with Aviatrix Controller. In order to use CoPilot, you must have an operational Aviatrix Controller. CoPilot works with all Controller versions that are not End of Life (EOL).
For information about Aviatrix End of Engineering and End of Life (Support) policies or how to plan and update to the latest software, please contact Aviatrix Support.
For information about the availability of Aviatrix features when running different versions of Aviatrix Controller, see Aviatrix Feature Availability by Controller Version.

Important Notice in CoPilot Release 4.0.0
Upgrade Impact for FlowIQ Behavior
While your CoPilot instance is upgrading to software version 4.0.0, historical flow data records will be aggregated in order to implement FlowIQ performance improvements.
The aggregation process takes 1-48 hours depending on the size of your environment. For very large environments, the process could take up to 7 days. During this time, you can expect the following to occur:
-
The FlowIQ charts may show some data inconsistencies.
-
The CPU utilization of your CoPilot virtual machine will increase.
After FlowIQ performance improvements are completed, the following behavior change will take effect:
-
When querying a flow in the FlowIQ Overview, Trends, or Geo page, the page will load faster than before the upgrade.
-
The Flow IQ Overview, Trends, and Geo pages can show only the most recent 120 days of data.
You can still view historical flow data earlier than the last 120 days by using the Flows and Records tabs.

3.9.0 Release Notes
Release Date: 25 April 2023
For new features introduced in CoPilot 3.9.0, see What’s New in CoPilot?
Deprecation of memory_free System Metric
The system metric Memory Free (memory_free) used in CoPilot for configuring alerts had been using a definition that was inconsistent with the operating system (OS) definition; its definition is consistent with the metric Memory Available (memory_available).
As a result, alerts that were previously configured using the Memory Free (memory_free) metric are migrated to use memory available thresholds and their alert configurations will now show the condition memory_available.
In addition, all CoPilot lists from which metrics are selected will no longer show the Memory Free (memory_free) metric as an option. Charts such as those in CoPilot > Monitor > Performance page and CoPilot > Monitor > Notifications > Alert Configurations page will no longer show the memory_free metric.
UTC Timezone Required when Upgrading to Controller 7.0.1726
Starting with Aviatrix Controller software version 7.0.1726, the syslog format of log files exported by Aviatrix gateways no longer includes timezone information. As a result, when upgrading to Controller 7.0.1726 or later, you must set the timezone to "UTC" on your Controller. CoPilot software versions 3.9 and later require the timezone to be set to "UTC so that timestamp information can be interpreted correctly.
To set the timezone to "UTC":
-
In Controller, open the Settings > Controller > Time > Change Timezone dialog.
-
Select UTC from the list.
-
Click OK.
Note the following:
-
The ability to set custom timezones is deprecated and will eventually be removed from the Controller when the Controller supports only UTC as the timezone for backend logs.
-
The CoPilot audit logs (shown in CoPilot > Administration > Audit) always assume a UTC timezone regardless of the custom timezone that may be set.
Issues Corrected in 3.9.0

Known Issue |
After an upgrade to CoPilot 3.7.1 or later, the ability to view live logs for Egress traffic, and to display and download these logs, is removed. This known issue was caused by a redesign of the Security > Egress page. The redesign currently requires that Egress traffic rules be configured in CoPilot. The monitoring aspects of the Egress page currently do not work for egress-traffic rules that were originally created in the Aviatrix Controller. You can now configure Egress rules in CoPilot or in Controller, not both. If you want to use Egress in CoPilot and you already have Egress set up in the Controller, you must remove FQDN tags from the latter. Please contact your Aviatrix representative for more information. |

(Public Preview Features in Release 2.0.4) The following public preview feature is available in this release:
-
Micro-segmentation – Micro-segmentation provides granular network security policy enforcement for distributed applications in the cloud. It enables a unified network access policy model for your applications with distributed points of policy enforcement throughout your network. The micro-segmentation public preview feature is available starting from Controller release 6.7.1319. For information about micro-segmentation, see Secure Networking with Micro-Segmentation in the Aviatrix product documentation.
-
-
(Security - Public Preview Features) The Micro-segmentation public preview feature has the following enhancements (starting from Controller release 6.7.1319):
-
Micro-segmentation logging – For the micro-segmentation rules with logging enabled, a policy monitor is now introduced that shows which rules were hit by network traffic. The policy monitor displays logs that meet the criteria configured in your rules. You can filter the information by timestamp, related rule, and more criteria. You can also configure a retention period for how long to store the logs.
-
Micro-segmentation rule priority – You can now specify a priority number to the micro-segmentation rules you create. The priority number determines the order in which your rules are applied. A lower priority number indicates higher precedence, with the highest priority being 0.
-
Micro-segmentation system messages – You can now view a list of system messages about your micro-segmentation configurations by clicking the bell icon in the CoPilot action bar.
-
For information about micro-segmentation, see Secure Networking with Micro-Segmentation in the Aviatrix product documentation.
-
CoPilot Release 1.11.3 (5/23/2022)
-
(Security) Geoblocking — You can now select a country to block IP traffic coming into and coming from the country. When Geoblocking is enabled for a country, a tag-based security policy is implemented on each gateway to deny traffic for IP addresses associated with the country. All gateways in your VPC/VNets will block. When you unblock a country, the tag is removed from all gateways and the stateful firewall rules instantiated on them for that country are removed. For more information about Geoblocking and how to enable it, see Enable Geoblocking in Aviatrix CoPilot User Reference Guide.
-
Attention: A CSP-region IP may be blocked if that region is in the blocked country. For example, if the public IP for your service is registered in a specific country by the CSP and you block that country.

Minor bug fixes.
CoPilot Release 1.10.0, 1.10.1 (5/09/2022)
-
(Performance) Create Policies for Scaling Managed Resources — As in prior releases, CoPilot monitors the resource utilization (telemetry) data for all managed resources — gateways and controller — across your Aviatrix transit network (multicloud and single cloud). You can now create policies based on the telemetry data that guide you on when to replace or scale the managed resources up or down. When gateway virtual machines/instances exceed your policy thresholds, CoPilot generates a resource-scale alert. From the alerts page, you can scale up or down directly from CoPilot. When choosing the instance size, CoPilot displays the supported instance sizes for Aviatrix gateways in their respective cloud service provider. Policies are set on a per VPC/VNet basis. All gateways within the given VPC/VNet are monitored. You create the policies in CoPilot under Performance > Scaling > Policies. For information about creating resource-scale policies, see Resizing managed resources (gateways) based on policies in Aviatrix CoPilot User Reference Guide.
-
(Private Preview Features in Release 1.10.0) The following private preview feature is available in this release:

CoPilot Release 1.9.0, 1.9.1 (4/27/2022)
-
(Topology) Limit Topology Render — The Limit Topology Render configuration option is added to Settings > Advanced Settings > Topology Environment Settings. Enable this option if your network infrastructure is large and the full visible topology cannot be rendered in the topology map. In this case, you can still use the topology map feature by using filters to load scaled down portions of your topology. When this option is disabled (default), CoPilot will automatically attempt to load the full topology of your infrastructure in the map when the Topology page is opened. To enable the option, go to Settings > Advanced Settings > Topology Environment Settings, set the option to Enabled, and click Save.
-
(Security) Network Segmentation for inter-VPC/VNet connectivity (reachability) — You can now enable network segmentation in your Aviatrix Transit Network via the CoPilot user interface. Note the following points:
-
You can still enable network segmentation for inter-VPC/VNet connectivity using Aviatrix Controller (as in prior releases).
-
The term network domain used in CoPilot is synonymous with security domain used in Controller (the term security domain will eventually be deprecated).
-
The network segmentation configurations you set in Aviatrix Controller can be accessed and modified in Aviatrix CoPilot and vice versa.
-
When enabling network segmentation via CoPilot, you navigate to Security > Network Segmentation > Network Domain and click Transit Gateways to specify the Aviatrix transit gateways you want enabled for network segmentation. In the same view, you click + Network Domain to create your network domains and specify how the resources you associate with them are allowed to communicate with each other. For detailed instructions, see the discussion about enabling network segmentation using CoPilot in the CoPilot documentation.

CoPilot Releases 1.8.0, 1.8.1, 1.8.2, 1.8.3 (4/05/2022), 1.8.4 (4/11/2022)
-
(Anomalies - New!) Network Behavior Analytics — You can now select any VPC/VNet(s) in your clouds to have CoPilot learn their behaviors based on a group of metrics and alert you when it detects anomalous behavior in them. When configured for network behavior analytics, CoPilot performs continuous network behavior analysis of the VPC/VNet workloads during a configurable learning period. The learned behavior or fingerprint is a behavioral baseline against which CoPilot can detect abnormal network operating patterns or anomalies. Anomalies could represent threats on your network, systems being down, high traffic for a planned launch, or some other abnormal behavior. For information about enabling network behavior analytics, see Working with Anomalies.
-
(FlowIQ) FlowIQ Filter by CSP Tags — You can now search for traffic using your cloud-native instance tags and VPC tags. Use the tags in FlowIQ filters that take an address field like Source Address or Destination Address. For example, to see traffic flows between business units, this filter group with the AND operand will show traffic flows between accounting and engineering resources where the CSP tag associated with each resource is Name = department and Value = accounting or engineering respectively :
Source Address is equal to department accounting
Destination Address is equal to department engineering
-
(ThreatIQ with ThreatGuard) Prepend/Append ThreatGuard Rules — By default, ThreatGuard firewall rules append instantiated rules — Aviatrix Controller adds the ThreatGuard rule to the end of the rules list at the time the threat triggered the rule. You can now choose to have ThreatGuard firewall rules prepend instantiated rules where Aviatrix Controller adds the ThreatGuard rule to the beginning of the rules list at the time the threat triggered the rule. The prepend feature is available starting from Controller release 6.6.5544. From the ThreatIQ > ThreatGuard page, select the prepend option when configuring ThreatGuard blocking. For more information, see About ThreatIQ Firewall Rules.
-
(Notifications) Edit Alerts — You can now edit alert configurations. From the Notifications > Configure > Configured Alerts list, locate the alert and click on the blue pen icon.

-
(Reports) — You can create a report that summarizes the resource utilization (telemetry) data for Aviatrix gateways in a single cloud or across all clouds in your multicloud network. Of the approximately 80 performance metrics that CoPilot exposes (system and network metrics), you can select from any or all of them to report on for the time period you specify. Per gateway, when reporting on network metrics, CoPilot aggregates the metrics across all interfaces (default), or if specified, reports the metrics for each interface. The data in the report can be organized by gateway or by metric. The report can be exported in PDF. For information about creating a resource utilization report, see Create a Resource Utilization Report.
-
(Topology) — Search and filter for cloud native VPC/VNET/VCN tags — You can search and filter for VPC/VNET/VCN tags that you set in the native cloud service provider console. This feature is available starting from Controller release 6.6. To filter for VPC/VNET/VCN tags, from Topology, click the Toggle Filter slider to enable it. In the key list, under the CSP Tags category, select the VPC/VNET/VCN tag to filter for.

-
(FlowIQ) You can now filter for information by gateway name using the new FlowIQ fields: src_gateway_name (Source Gateway), dest_gateway_name (Destination Gateway), and gw_gateway (Gateway Name).
-
(ThreatIQ) Custom ThreatIQ IP List — Network administrators can now maintain a list of IP addresses they consider to be threat IPs. For each IP address in the custom threat IP list, you can specify a custom severity, classification, color (for display in lists), and informational note. When a custom threat-IP list is added, and those threat IPs are detected, the threats are shown in the ThreatIQ map on the Dashboard. The custom threat IPs are handled by Aviatrix Controller in the same manner as the threat IPs identified through ThreatIQ with ThreatGuard (detection, blocking, and unblocking functionality is the same). In the current release, custom ThreatIQ IP lists must be created in CoPilot under ThreatIQ > Custom Threat List.
-
Support for expanding existing physical volumes — For data disks you already allocated to your CoPilot deployment, you can increase their size. After increasing their size via the CSP, log into CoPilot and go to Settings > Resources. In the Resources page, locate the physical volume in the Disk Usage table associated with the resized data disk and click its corresponding RESIZE button. CoPilot resizes the physical volume to match the size of your expanded disk. TIP: In the Disk Usage table, click the detail control ( ˅ ) to the left of the Filesystem column for each physical volume until you locate the enabled RESIZE button.

-
New disk (volume) support — You can now allocate data disks (volumes) to your Aviatrix CoPilot deployment to be used for expandable storage. During instance creation in the marketplace, you can attach a data disk (data volume) to be used for CoPilot storage. When you deploy the instance, the initial setup process will automatically detect the disk/volume you attached during instance creation and format and attach your disks (a logical disk/volume is created from all physical disks). As your storage needs increase later (after deploying), you can also add more disks (volumes) as needed. See CoPilot Disk (Volume) Management for more information.
-
Auto-scaling memory support — CoPilot now supports automatic memory sizing for the ETL and datastore based on the physical memory of the instance at boot. New base images will default to these automatic settings, but existing deployments will keep their current configuration unless updated. Memory settings are still located under Settings > Configuration > Options.

Deprecated Features in CoPilot
This section lists deprecated features in CoPilot.
Deprecated Topology Views
The following views in Topology are deprecated and are superseded by the New Topology Experience landing page which offers equal and improved functionality.
It is recommended to use the Topology Overview with New Topology Experience enabled and discontinue using the following views because they will eventually be removed:
-
Airspace > Topology > Overview View with Classic Experience enabled
-
Airspace > Topology > Transit View
-
Airspace > Topology > MCNA View
If you want to enable the classic experiences for Topology map, do the following:
-
Go to the CoPilot > Settings > Configuration page, enable the Old Topology Experiences option, and click Save.
-
In the Copilot > Cloud Fabric > Topology page, click on the New Topology Experience toggle.
This disables the New Experience in the Overview tab and shows the Classic Experience and the Transit and MCNA tabs of the Topology page are also shown.
Removed Features from CoPilot
This section lists features, pages, or views that were removed from CoPilot.
Removed Legacy Traffic & Latencies View
The following view in Traffic & Latencies was removed in CoPilot 3.12.0:
-
Monitor > Traffic & Latencies > Latency Monitor with Classic Experience enabled
The view is superseded by the New Latency Monitor Experience page which offers equal and improved functionality.
