| Service Feature | Proposed/Pending/Delivered | Estimated Delivery | Estimated Cost | Comments | Updated |
| Search Domain Activation | Proposed May 2018 | Configure HON-D services to support autofill for specified user domains. This appears to be feasible but requires prototyping and testing. The team will attempt to review this option late 2018/early 2019. | 1/2019 | ||
| Single SignOn with Husky OnNet | Proposed Feb. 2018 | Use Windows credentials at system start up to automate the login of the HON win app – user signs into the Windows system, the system automatically starts the HON app and logs the user into the HON app.
May 2018: Initial reviews look promising; more investigation/testing required. |
1/2019 |
The following historical requests were evaluated by the team for feasibility and deemed either not feasible or not-supportable.
| Downloadable WIN and MacOS client apps customized with HON-D server names included | Proposed Aug 2017 | To use HON-D with WIN or MacOS devices, users download the client apps from UWare. These client apps are preconfigured with the general Husky OnNet servers. To use a HON-D server, users must ‘add a server’ and enter the department’s HON-D server name. In this feature request, the department has asked the HON team to prepare customer WIN and MacOS clients with the HON-D servers already included.
5/2018: the team has reviewed this request. This is outside the scope of the team’s resources at this time. |

| Device Authorization for use with HON-D | Proposed Feb. 2017 | Not feasible.
By adding device authorization, a department may use two authentications for access to their Husky OnNet Slice service: 1) UW NetID via UW Groups and 2) device MAC. Update 6/15/17: initial review finds that the device MAC info is not provided to the central f5 device precluding an authorization step facilitated by the central device. |
