Customised view of networks, drillable, general status for everyone.

Hi, I am newish to NetXMS, is it possible to create a customised web based graphical view of our networks?

At a previous workplace I used another network monitoring tool that I had customised so that any staff member could see a read only view of their site, this was in additional to logged in admins who could modify status etc. For each site this included things like routers > servers > UPS > switches, for each of these we could drill in and see the service status within, such as battery life, disk, mem, cpu. The views we used were a circular drillable view. The main view was the main central site with a few switches and routers and 20 satellite sites were around the edge. If anything alerted/failed the respective site/device icon would go orange/red, we could drill down to where the alert originated and change alert status etc. Alerts also came via SMS/email depending on thresholds.

I believe my workplace subscribes to NetXMS, at this stage this question is out of interest.

Hi,

it's possible to some degree. Few options here:

1. Create circular status map - you can define root object, and status map will show sub-objects and their statuses as sunburst diagram. However, drilldown action is hardcoded and will open list of active alarms for selected object.

2. Create network map - you can place any object on a map, and as drilldown you can set other map or dashboard. This will not be sunburst diagram however - although you can represent objects in some logical layout.

Best regards,
Victor
