## Upgrade Paths {#2-14-0-upgrade-paths}

NGINX Instance Manager 2.14.0 supports upgrades from these previous versions:

## What's new {#2-14-0-whats-new}

This release includes the following updates:

- [icon: feature] **Instance Manager Dashboard**<a name="2-14-0-whats-new-Instance-Manager-Dashboard-41230"></a>

   Monitor the health and performance of your NGINX instance fleet from a single page. Get insights and trends on CPU, memory, disk, and network traffic utilization. Quickly spot and mitigate common HTTP errors and TLS certificate issues. See the [Instance Manager Dashboard](nim/fundamentals/dashboard-overview.md) documentation to learn more.

- [icon: feature] **Work with F5 WAF for NGINX Bundles from Instance Manager**<a name="2-14-0-whats-new-Work-with-F5-WAF-for-NGINX-Bundles-from-Instance-Manager-43798"></a>

   Starting with Instance Manager 2.14, you can now use the "/security/policies/bundles" endpoint to create, read, update, and delete F5 WAF for NGINX bundles, which allow faster deployment through pre-compilation of security policies, attack signatures, and threat-campaign.  For additional information on how to use the API endpoint, refer to your product API documentation.
   To learn more about this feature, see the [Manage WAF Security Policies](/nim/waf-integration/policies-and-logs/_index.md) documentation.
