NetBrain does not currently provide a built-in SCP client for uploading and downloading device configuration files or performing firmware upgrades, nor does it offer a scriptable SSH client for automated device interaction. This limits the platform's ability to manage devices that rely on SCP and scripted SSH workflows, such as networked UPS systems, within a single tool. This enhancement would add native SCP client functionality alongside a scriptable SSH client, enabling automated configuration backup, restore, and firmware upgrade tasks directly from NetBrain. Customers managing large fleets of third-party network-connected devices would benefit from consolidating auditing and configuration management into NetBrain, reducing reliance on custom external scripts and improving operational consistency.
