Capabilities
Six protocols. One platform.
Monitor any device, any protocol, any location. From core routers to industrial power systems.
Monitoring Protocols
📡

SNMP v2c / v3

Poll any SNMP-capable device. Custom OID definitions, interface discovery, bandwidth monitoring. Native support for MikroTik, FortiGate, and Cisco.

🔋

ICMP Ping

Latency, packet loss, and uptime monitoring. The foundation of any monitoring stack — know instantly when a device goes down.

🌐

HTTP / API

Monitor REST endpoints, web services, and custom APIs. Check response codes, content matching, and response times. MikroTik and cloud API support.

💻

WinRM / PowerShell

Agentless Windows server monitoring. CPU, RAM, disk, services, and event logs — all via native Windows Remote Management.

🖥

SSH

Linux and Unix monitoring via SSH command execution. Custom scripts, log parsing, and system metrics without installing agents.

Modbus TCP

Industrial device monitoring. Optimised for Victron solar systems, power equipment, and IoT devices. Read registers directly.

Alerting & Notifications
🚨

Flexible Alert Rules

Threshold, state change, and anomaly detection. Configurable severity levels, duration requirements, and per-sensor rules.

📨

Multi-Channel Notifications

Email, Telegram, Discord, and generic webhooks. Customisable templates with variable substitution and HTML formatting.

📈

Escalation Policies

Multi-step escalation chains. Auto-escalate unacknowledged alerts to the next team. Timed acknowledgment with auto-reopen.

Data & Visualisation
📊

Time-Series Storage

TimescaleDB-backed storage handling 100M+ data points. Automatic rollups at 1-min, 5-min, and 1-hour intervals. 365-day retention.

🗺

Interactive Maps

Device locations on maps with status colour-coding. Click to view device details. Geographic awareness for distributed infrastructure.

📋

Top-N Reports

Identify busiest interfaces, highest CPU, most packet loss. Configurable time periods, sorting, and filtering by sensor type.

Operations & Scale
🔍

Auto-Discovery

Ping sweep, SNMP enumeration, and port scanning. Automatically find devices, interfaces, and services across your network.

🌐

Distributed Polling

Deploy remote monitoring nodes for multi-site coverage. Each node polls independently with API key authentication and health tracking.

🔧

Maintenance Windows

Schedule downtime for devices or groups. Suppress alerts, exclude from availability calculations. One-time or recurring.

🎫

Ticket System

Create tickets from alerts or manually. Assignment, priority levels, comment threads, and status lifecycle tracking.

🔒

Role-Based Access

Admin, operator, and viewer roles. Per-user API tokens for programmatic access. Comprehensive audit logging.

🔌

Sensor Dependencies

Pause child sensors when parent fails. Automatic alert suppression. Circular dependency detection. Reduce noise during outages.

Device Support
Native support for major vendors
Pre-built OID maps and monitoring templates for the devices you already have.
MikroTik

RouterOS

Interfaces, CPU, memory, disk, wireless clients, BGP peers, OSPF neighbours, voltage, temperature.

FortiGate

Firewalls

VDOMs, VPN tunnels, HA clusters, session metrics, throughput, CPU, memory, and disk usage.

Victron

Power Systems

Solar inverters, battery banks, and power controllers via Modbus TCP. Real-time energy monitoring.
