2809 - Navigating BloxOne Application Discovery Reports
Cloud Services Portal (CSP) is now Infoblox Portal
In early September, Cloud Services Portal (CSP) became Infoblox Portal with a new look-and-feel, and a new URL (https://portal.infoblox.com). As a result of this change, the layout and organization of several menus have been updated.
Unfortunately, this means that our video courseware and lab guides no longer match the new user interface. However, we are currently in the process of updating them, and they should be ready soon.
In the meantime, we have some resources to help you navigate the new interface:
We have created a mapping of the previous menu locations and their new breadcrumb location.
Additionally, you can find a walkthrough video of the new User Interface on Launchpad.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and kindly ask for your patience as we work through this transition.
