Build 14658 (22.06.2022):
- Breaking Change The Powershell module “ExchangeOnlineManagement” is now required to capture online Exchange servers (cloud servers), see manual.

Attention: This setting is only enabled by default for new installations, for update installations you have to check the box yourself (if desired).
- Topology:
- Important Significant improvement in reliability and loading speed. Note: To optimize loading speed, a feature is used that is only supported from SQL Server 2016 onwards, which is why we now recommend at least SQL Server 2016. Older versions are still supported, but do not benefit as much from the speed optimization.
- Important Improved calculation of connections when both CDP and LLDP data are available.
- Calling topology below user templates no longer possible
- Breaking Change Moved “DeviceInfo.Serialnumber” property to “HardwareAsset.Serialnumber”
