2N® Access Commander version 3.1 (production April 2024)

2N® Access Commander version 3.1 introduces a more secure method of login (2FA), Dutch Language and other improvement


**IMPORTANT** Due to security reasons this version of Access Commander is not compatible with 2N Intercoms and 2N Access Units running FW 2.37 or older. Access Commander will not manage devices with these FW even with enabled compatibility mode. Please ensure that all devices are running FW 2.38 or newer before upgrading.


New Features:

Two factor authentication is now available for login. When enabled each user requires both password and secondary authentication via an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator in addition to their unique user name. This extra level of security can be optional for all users, mandatory for users with a role (Managers), or mandatory all users and is set by Admin. 2FA works even for installations that are offline (have no internet connection).

Dutch is now included as a language variant in Access Commander's web environment. The online and offline manual also supports machine translated Dutch.

* Access Commander now supports API Keys - access without user authentication opening up further possibilies for integration.
* When setting up Access Commander from the browser for the first time the linux root password is now synchronised with the system admin password if the root password hasn't yet been changed from default.
* Access Unit QR is supported in this version.


Corrections

* Device sensor (door sensor) status is now correctly displayed in the device monitoring page.
* User name for access granted/denied now displayed in the Access Log widget.
* Device configuration can now be accessed from the device list as it was in Access Commander version 2.


Additional notes

**IMPORTANT** - In May 2023 we announced that the old APIv2 will be retired in place of a more advanced APIv3 and gave a transition period of one year where the two versions run side by side. From this release APIv2 will be no longer supported, and will be removed completely from Access Commander 3.2 (Q3 2024). 
If you are using Access Commander with a third-party integration, please ensure that this integration is compatible with APIv3 soon to avoid loss of functionality in future versions.
For more information on Access Commander's API see the documentation in the user manual
- The old user interface is no longer available in this version
- Known issue - In 3.1 it is not possible to manually approve a device firmware on a Basic (free) license. Please ensure all devices meet the firmware requirements listed below. Fix comming in Access Commander 3.2 (August)
- Integration with the Milestone Xprotect plugin is not compatible with 2FA. Do not enable 2FA for the Milestone user login.

  • Since the upgrade mechanism has been changed in this version, it is necessary to run the upgrade twice. After the first execution, the upgrade mechanism itself gets upgraded and the system will still show the original version number. When the upgrade is run for the second time, a regular upgrade downloads a new system version. We’re sorry for inconvenience.
