Mac Roaming Client
RC Release Channels
5/28 May 28 - MacOS Roaming Client v2.2.0 Production
A new version of the MacOS Roaming Client is now available via the Production channel.
This version can be downloaded from the dashboard
Deployments → Roaming Clients → Install Guide → MacOS.
Auto-update will push out the new release to RCs in the Production Release Channel incrementally over the next week or two. Please refer to our release status page for the latest available versions in both Beta and Production channels.
⚠️ Important Note:
Existing customers running older MacOS Roaming Client versions should have received an email to advise on prerequisite mobileConfig installation via MDM to avoid spurious dialog box appearances on endpoints.

New / Enhanced Features
🛠️ System Extension / DNS Proxy
The new 2.x codebase now leverages a system extension and DNS proxy on the endpoint. This enhances security and performance. As noted above, installation of two mobileConfig profiles on the endpoint is a strongly suggested prerequisite as failing to do so will result in the end user receiving two dialog boxes asking for permission to run the extension and proxy.
🔁 Improved Connection Handling After TLS Errors
We fixed an issue where the macOS client wouldn’t retry regular (non-TLS) connections after a secure (TLS) connection failed. This could lead to delays or missed DNS requests. The client now handles retries more reliably to maintain smooth operation.
⚙️ Reliable Configuration Updates
The macOS extension now correctly re-reads its configuration file and applies fallback settings if some values are missing. This ensures the extension behaves consistently during startup and while running.
🧹 Uninstall Script Improvements
We updated the macOS uninstall script to better handle data privacy settings. It now properly reads and filters the necessary configuration details, making the uninstall process cleaner and more accurate.

*
For users who have already upgraded to Sequoia with v.1.8.4 previously installed prior to the OS update, v1.8.6 will need to be installed over v1.8.4 manually or via RMM/MDM to restore auto update capabilities. It's important to note that due to changes in MacOS Sequoia, the endpoint will prompt for credentials on installation.
Please share any feedback you have while running v1.8.6.

A new version of the macOS RC is now available in Production release channel for New Installs. This version can be downloaded from the dashboard
Deployments
→ Roaming Clients
→ Install.

Auto-update rollout will begin this week with 5% rollout, please refer to our release status page for the latest available versions in both Beta and Production channels.
Included in macOS v.1.8.2
Improvements 🛠️
- After an extensive beta period aimed at improving compatibility with Captive Portal networks macOS RC v1.8.2 is now able dynamically handle all known types of captive networks. If the portal is not automatically opened you can use this new option in the menubar icon when connected to a captive portal that will trigger the page to open in a browser.

- A new configuration setting has been added to macOS RC to support excluding EDNS records for configured local domains. By default macOS RC does include EDNS records when resolving queries to local domains. However if these are creating conflicts for your users you can modify the behavior by installing v1.8.2 with this parameter set to false in the config file IncludeLocalResolversEdnsRecords=false
Bug Fixes 🪲
- Fixed issues affecting the Diagnostic Tool in previous versions that could result in the menubar icon crashing and/or incomplete log collection in the output zip file.
- Fixed an issue that could cause the roaming client to crash when attempting to sync local domains from the Dashboard that include capital letters.

Improvements 🛠️
- Continuing our improvements for captive portal compatibility, v1.8.2 is now able to more accurately detect when a network is preventing HTTP/S connections while not affecting DNS traffic. This should improve compatibility on the networks that still faced connectivity issues on v1.8.0 and earlier. Additionally, a new option in the menubar icon is now shown when connected to a captive portal that will trigger the page to open in a browser if the automatic mini browser does not open.
