Changes Topics Impacted
AIS, BCS
There is now only one type of PASS. There will no longer be references to EZPASS/MCS PASS or AIS PASS. References to EZPASS, MCS PASS and AIS PASS will be changed to PASS.
The BCS is a Server machine that will have PASS, C2R and SQL software on it. There have been problems with putting SQL Server software on the BCS, but the intent is that SQL Server software will be on the BCS. Any reference to the location of SQL Server has been changed to BCS.

Changes Topics Impacted
Server Configuration Console
There is now the ability to subscribe, publish, add and remove CPOF data provider topics.
The user can now start and stop the NRTS data provider upon configuration.
The Server Configuration Console now monitors its connection to NRTS every 5 seconds and prevents the user from entering data if the connection goes down.
NRTS data will not be loaded/configured if the NRTS connection is not good. The errors reported will better explain what is happening.
The Start/Stop/Pause buttons have been made inoperable on the server status GUI for the time being, until the capability is added to NRTS to allow the Server Configuration Console to start and stop individual data providers.
