# Release Notes - v5.6.0

We are excited to share the **Octo Network Scanner, Update Service,** a new inventory that gives information about **Cloud Services**, several new integrations, and improvements to existing ones. Below is a structured summary of the key enhancements included in this release.

### 1. Update Service

We have enabled **online Update Service.** System improvements and feature updates can now be delivered instantly after completing a one-time configuration. This enhancement eliminates the need to wait for standard package releases — updates are seamlessly integrated into your environment as soon as they become available. As a result, you can ensure your system always operates with the latest features, fixes, and optimizations, maintaining both efficiency and security at all times.

### 2. Octo Network Scanner Adapter

Meet our **Octo Network Scanner** adapter! It allows our product to perform host discovery within your environment and identify network assets effortlessly. Once scans are completed, all discovered assets will automatically appear on your Device Inventory page, giving you instant visibility into your network.

When enabling the NMAP adapter — i.e., when creating a connection — you can apply the following restrictions specific to the scan you want to run:

* **Target Selection**
  * You can separate your targets as shown on the connection page and select multiple targets.
  * It is a required field.
* **Resolve DNS**
* **Port Selection**
  * You can choose the specific ports you want to scan, or proceed using one of the three options available on the connection page:
    * No Port Scan
    * Top Thousand Ports
    * Top SYN Scan
* **Host Discovery Selection**
  * From here you can pick a ping option and enter a specific value for that selected ping option.
* **Aggressive Discovery**
* **Service Discovery**
* **Advanced Discovery Customization**
  * From here you can set **Min Parallelism** and **Min Rate.**

### 3. Service Inventory

With the new **Service Inventory**, you will be able to manage all your cloud services in one place. The Query Wizard, already available across our platform, will also be supported in this inventory.

With your created Saved Queries, you will be able to:

* Add charts or widgets to your dashboards.

#### 3.1. Service Inventory Listing Page

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.octoxlabs.com/release-notes/previous-releases/octoxlabs-5.x/release-notes-v5.6.0.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
