New features and integrations
Bulk Metric Alert Configuration
Users can now apply alerts to metrics in bulk directly from the Device Detail page and Monitoring Dashboards, including Network Troubleshooting Tables. This highly requested feature drastically reduces manual setup and ensures consistent alert coverage across multiple devices.
Switch Monitoring Dashboard with Alert Configuration
1. The dashboard displays a list of monitored network devices with columns including Site Name, Device Name, Interface, Type, IP Address, Status, In Traffic, In Discards, In Errors, and Traffic.
2. The "Set an Alert" column shows options for setting alerts on network traffic parameters.
3. An alert configuration is open on the right, indicating an alert setup for "Detected Errors" greater than 0.
4. The "Configure new alert" option allows users to set up additional alerts based on specific conditions.
5. Use the checkboxes and other fields to customize alert thresholds and enable or disable specific alerts.
6. Actions can be taken via the "Actions" menu located at the top right of the table.
Set an Alert for Detected Errors in SNMP Monitoring
1. Navigate to the "SNMP" tab under "Device Details" for monitoring options.
2. Locate the "SNMP Monitoring" section. Check that the status is listed as "READ" with authentication type "V2."
3. Click "Add SNMP Sensors" to manage sensor configurations.
4. In the "Network Traffic Table," view traffic usage and discard percentages.
5. To set alerts, find "Set an alert on" popup. Choose "Detected Errors," and specify the condition "is greater than 0."
6. Confirm by clicking "Set an Alert" to create and save the alert configuration.
7. Use "Configure new alert" for additional settings or modifications.
New MIBs
Support for additional MIBs enhances compatibility with a broader range of devices:
- Calix E7
- Lenovo XClarity Controller (BMC)
- POSEIDON-MIB
New Scripts and Framework Updates
- Domotz Box Restart – Added option for system restart directly via the interface.
- Script Framework Update – SCP protocol now supported for secure file transfers.
- SonicWall Firewall Configuration Backup – New script added to support custom ports.
- Sony TV – New script added to monitor TV status:
Sony TV Power Control Script Interface
1. The interface monitors and controls the power status of a Sony TV. It allows scheduling based on specific days and time ranges, with options to exclude certain dates.
2. The current status is shown as "RUNNING" with a sample period of 5 minutes. There are 5 parameters and 2 metrics being consumed.
3. To change the TV power status, use the "Turn TV On" and "Turn TV Off" options. There are buttons labeled "On" and "Off" for each respective action.
4. In the 'Variables' section, details include:
- "Name" column lists variable names.
- "Value" column shows the current value of each variable. For example, the "Status" is "standby" and the "Video Source" is "N/A."
- "Last change" column indicates when each value was last updated, "a few seconds ago" for both entries mentioned.
5. To export variable data, use the "Download CSV" link provided.
- Windows WinRM – Added support for SSH protocol to Windows WinRM scripts
- Microsoft Teams Rooms – New script added to monitor device status:
Microsoft Teams Rooms Device Status Overview
1. The status of Microsoft Teams Rooms is displayed as "RUNNING." This indicates that the service is operational.
2. The sample period for the status updates is every 5 minutes.
3. There are 3 parameters and 7 metrics consumed in the report.
4. A table lists the device status details with columns for Id, Model, Vendor, and Type.
5. Two devices are listed with IDs beginning "9136ec8d..." and "ed728e2b..." respectively. Both have the model "vr0020," vendor "logitech," and type "collaborationBar."
6. There's an option to download this data as a CSV file for further analysis.
Microsoft Teams Rooms Device Status Overview
1. The status of Microsoft Teams Rooms is marked as "RUNNING."
2. The sample period is set to 5 minutes, with 3 parameters and 7 metrics consumed.
3. The table lists devices with columns for "Used by," "Serial Number," "Status," and "Activity."
4. Two entries: "Meeting Room Pisa 1" with serial number 2436fd902202, and "Cambridge Room Pisa" with serial number 2436fd501gs2, both have a status of "nonUrgent" and activity listed as "unknown."
5. An option to download the data in CSV format is available.
