Day in brief

Private Access sensor 2.2.79 adds OTA updates; passkey sample is test-only

This was a documentation-heavy day: all 31 recorded items were updates, with no new or removed entries and no Message Center notices. Most changes were spelling, formatting, metadata, or wording corrections. The meaningful exceptions were a Private Access sensor release-history update, new External ID passkey sample guidance, an SMS availability clarification, and corrected Zscaler ZSNet onboarding terminology.

  • The release history records version 2.2.79, released September 29, 2026, as adding over-the-air sensor updates, enhanced Kerberos security and diagnostics, SID-based service matching, and corrected wildcard matching. Upgrading from version 2.2.42 requires a one-time full-installer deployment to enable OTA updates; inbound TCP and UDP port 1337 must be allowed, and IPv6 Kerberos traffic is blocked, so IPv4 is required.

  • The updated material links to a sample for listing and registering passkeys and documents the delegated permissions for those operations. Its deletion flow uses high-privilege application permissions and a client secret in browser code, so the sample is intended only for a test tenant and should not be deployed to production.

  • The customer FAQ now specifies that SMS is unavailable only for first-factor authentication in external tenants. SMS remains available for self-service password reset and for second-factor verification at additional cost.

  • The tutorial consistently replaces “Zscaler ZNet” with “Zscaler ZSNet” in its title, prerequisites, gallery search instructions, and provisioning steps. Administrators following the procedure should search for and select Zscaler ZSNet in the Microsoft Entra application gallery.
