h2 features and benefits

The h2 webconsole is a browser-based interface for administering your h2 cluster. It provides a single point of access for services such as ssh, crm, and the web console. The new webconsole also provides the ability to add or remove listeners from nodes and generate a random admin password. Finally, the new webconsole has been updated with a new configuration parameter called 'isis.prototyping.h2-console.web-allow-access-from-restricted-ips' that allows you to restrict access to only specific sources like IP addresses or networks on TCP port 80 (HTTP).

This release contains the following bug fixes:
- CVE-2022-42467 and isis.prototyping.h2-console.generate-random-web-admin-password=false

This release also includes a new configuration parameter, 'isis.prototyping.h2-console.web-allow-access-from-restricted-ips'. This flag configures the h2 console to allow access from specific IP's only, which can be useful for testing purposes or when your application needs to be protected from external sources.
