v0.4 Released

At ShmooCon last month, we received a lot of positive feedback from attendees regarding Psyche. In addition, we were given several great suggestions for enhanced functionality and presentation. This release begins to address that feedback, as well as fixes a couple of minor bugs.

Some details of the changes:

1) Modified the dashboard code to allow the internal nets list to update immediately when internal nets are added/removed on the management page.

2) Added a radio button on the home page that enables the user to choose the direction of traffic (for the bandwidth utilization graph).

3)  Added KB count to the top talkers grid (next to the top talkers graph), which now shows the total bandwidth of each port or IP over the selected interval.

4) Changed the number of top talkers returned to and displayed by the UI. Before, selecting the top 4 talkers would display 3 individual ports or IPs and an ‘All Other’ category. Now, selecting the top 4 talkers will display 4 individual ports or IPs PLUS the ‘All Other’ category. Much more intuitive, I know…

5)  Added a start_time index on the flow table (to speed up raw flow queries) and multiple indexes on the src_traffic and dst_traffic tables (to speed up top talker graphing).
