ENTMQIC-1993 - Allow policy for sources and targets to handle multiple wildcards

The syntax for vhost policies has been improved in this version of AMQ Interconnect. You can now use multiple wildcard characters in source and target patterns.

ENTMQIC-1990 - Allow restriction of TLS and SSL protocol versions to be used in connections

In this version of AMQ Interconnect, you can now specify the SSL/TLS protocol version to be used in connections. You can use this capability to block versions of the protocol that have been shown to have security vulnerabilities.

ENTMQIC-1988 - Enhanced statistics available from router

This version of AMQ Interconnect adds several new statistics to the router management schema. You can now view more detailed statistics, including rolled-up, per-router statistics.

In AMQ Interconnect 1.2, exchange/binding-style message routing is available as a Technology Preview feature only.

Technology Preview features are not supported with Red Hat production service-level agreements (SLAs) and might not be functionally complete. Red Hat does not recommend using them for production. For more information, see Red Hat Technology Preview Features Support Scope.

ENTMQIC-1997 - Router crash when executing pn_class_incref () in libqpid-proton-core.so.10

In previous versions of AMQ Interconnect, a defect caused the router to crash under certain load conditions. This issue has been corrected, and the crashes are no longer seen.

ENTMQIC-1929 - qdmanage tool filtering by "type" is shady

When using the qdmanage tool, you can now use the --type argument to operate on a particular type of entity. Previously, qdmanage ignored --type for certain commands.

ENTMQIC-1978 - cannot set address phase via qdmanage tool

Previously, if you used the qdmanage tool to create addresses or auto-links with a non-default phase, the phase number was not correctly interpreted by the tool. This has been corrected and it is now possible to use qdmanage to configure non-default uses of address phase.

ENTMQIC-1986 - Detach not echoed back in multi-hop link route due to wrong session being closed

Previously, link-routed links would sometimes fail to close completely under certain load conditions. This defect has been corrected, and routed-links now close cleanly and completely.

ENTMQIC-2000 - enable sasl plugin for websocket connections

Previously, authentication was not usable in HTTP/Websocket listeners. This defect has been corrected, and you can now configure SASL client authentication for HTTP/Websocket listeners.

ENTMQIC-2004 - Transactional behaviour different in client router broker scenario versus client broker

Previously, if a link was repeatedly drained and then restarted, flow-control credit would not always be accounted correctly (particularly when using the AMQ JMS client). This issue has been corrected, and credit is now correctly tracked over multiple drain-restart cycles.

ENTMQIC-1992 - Enabling AMQ 7.1 Broker failback breaks failover support

Previously, if a router was connected to the master instance of a broker cluster, and then failed over to the backup instance, it was possible for the router to lose track of the master instance and fail to reconnect to it after it was back online. This issue has been fixed to ensure that a router can always reconnect to the original master instance in a broker cluster.

ENTMQIC-2003 - Allow address translation on link routes

In this version of AMQ Interconnect, you can now use address translation for link routes. The addExternalPrefix and delExternalPrefix configuration attributes have been added, which enable you to add or remove a prefix in the address to form a different address for the route-container than the address used in the router network.

ENTMQIC-2023 - qdrouterd accumulates memory on connections with link attach+detach loop

In previous versions of AMQ Interconnect, a defect caused memory usage to build up when a long-lived connection carried many link attaches and detaches. The memory for the links was not freed until the connection was closed. This defect has been corrected, and link memory is reclaimed when the link is closed.

ENTMQIC-61 - Memory pools are never returned to heap

Several heavily used data objects (deliveries, messages, links, buffers, etc.) are managed by AMQ Interconnect in pools for efficient allocation. In AMQ Interconnect 1.1, objects in these pools are not returned to the heap at any time. This means that the memory used in large bursts of activity will not be freed, but will remain available for use thereafter.

This might be observed as an increase in memory usage that does not decrease after a burst of activity is completed. Subsequent bursts of activity will use the same memory that was used previously.

Methods of returning large amounts of pooled objects back to the heap are being developed.

ENTMQIC-1980 - Symbolic ports in HTTP listeners do not work

When configuring a listener in the router with the http option enabled (for console or WebSocket access), the port attribute must be expressed numerically. Symbolic port names do not work with HTTP listeners.

If a listener is configured as:

listener {
    ...
    port: amqp
    http: yes
    ...
}

It should be changed to:

listener {
    ...
    port: 5672
    http: yes
    ...
}

ENTMQIC-1985 - Management agent misreports the SSL/TLS version

When using SSL/TLS in a connection, the management agent reports the protocol version to be TLSv1/SSLv3 when the protocol actually being used on the wire is TLSv1.2.

This is an issue in the underlying qpid-proton library and is fixed in qpid-proton 0.20.
