Site-Level Geolocation Attribute for Automatic Device AssignmentOpen

NetBrain currently requires geolocation to be configured separately for each device through the geolocation manager, with no link to site definitions. As new devices are discovered and added to sites, they are not automatically assigned a geolocation, making it difficult to identify and update devices lacking location data, particularly across multiple domains. This enhancement would add a geolocation attribute to leaf site definitions, so that all devices belonging to a site automatically inherit that location. As site membership is refreshed during discovery, newly added devices would be assigned geolocation automatically without manual intervention. Extending the site management REST APIs to support geolocation attributes would also allow customers to automate site and geolocation setup for new domains or customers. This would reduce the manual effort required to maintain geolocation data, improve accuracy as networks scale, and simplify onboarding for customers managing many sites and domains.

Image and Configuration Management Support for Digi and GE Cellular Router DevicesOpen

NetBrain currently does not support image management or configuration management workflows for certain cellular router and gateway device models, limiting visibility and control over these devices within the platform. This enhancement would extend image management and configuration management capabilities to cover additional device types, including popular cellular gateway and router models, so administrators can manage firmware images and configurations consistently across their network estate. Extending this support would allow customers with mixed-vendor environments, including critical infrastructure operators, to maintain a unified change and configuration management process without manual workarounds for unsupported device types.

Alerting on Abnormal Front Server Data Retrieval TimeOpen

NetBrain currently does not provide a mechanism to alert administrators when data retrieval time for a device exceeds a statistically derived threshold, such as the average retrieval time plus or minus a standard deviation. Administrators must manually review retrieval performance to identify devices experiencing abnormal delays. This enhancement would introduce automated alerting that flags devices whose data retrieval time deviates significantly from historical norms, using statistical measures to define the threshold. Customers managing large or performance-sensitive environments would benefit from earlier detection of retrieval anomalies, reducing troubleshooting time and improving overall monitoring reliability.

Default Map Settings Defined at the Layout Style LevelOpen

NetBrain currently allows default map settings to be configured only at the individual map level, requiring the same settings to be re-entered on every map that shares a common layout style. This enhancement would allow default map settings to be defined once at the Layout Style level, so that all maps using a given style automatically inherit those defaults. Customers managing multiple layout styles across different site types would benefit from reduced repetitive configuration and more consistent map presentation across their environment.

Histogram/Heat-Map Representation Option for MapsOpen

NetBrain map visualization is currently limited to standard device and link representations, with no option to render map data as a histogram or heat-map. This enhancement would add a histogram/heat-map representation option so map data can be visualized in this alternate format. Customers would gain an additional way to interpret network data patterns and density directly within the map view, supporting faster identification of trends or problem areas.

interactive Map zoom/transitions from site to device groups, to individual device and ports.Open

-Zooming effect: Basically be able to interact with the map at different levels without changin maps.a single map that would be able to seemlessly display sites- -click a site that would zoom in to display a view of all the devices within that site-click a device to display only directly connected devices-click on a router or switch would zoom into specific operational stats of that device and its ports-click a port on that device would zoom in to display port information and the endpoints connecting through that port- etc etc.This would be very similar to how google maps transitions between global, state, city, street, etc

Network Latency/flow Maps-Open

A latency map would be interesting to non-technical team members, they would be able to have a visual representation of the average packet transfer between nodes of a circuit but represented by something more understandable. Something very similar to what you would see on a normal traffic map.Essentially we would capture packet information over say 10 or 20 minutes and . Each circuit would have a color defined for thresholds of packet transfers as well for slower or higher speed transfer rates. -down circuits showing red, slower circuits showing orange, faster circuits showing green.Also would be nice to use this to show circuit saturation- meaning Its a 10gig port that is consistently pushing 10gig of fragmented data. as opposed to a circuit that is pushing almost no data per second. Would be interesting to display it on a circuit with a sort of animated pulse showing the particular "speed" of a circuit - Similar to something like this:https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:640/format:webp/1*tf0ZfDAcMxibL1mbZVP_XA.gif

DDoS-Attack-Style Threat Map VisualizationOpen

NetBrain does not currently offer a purpose-built, DDoS-attack-style map visualization for illustrating security events across the network. This enhancement would introduce a map view modeled after public live-threat-map visualizations, presenting attack or threat activity in a dynamic, visually engaging format. Such a capability would strengthen NetBrain's value as a single pane of glass for NOC/SOC teams monitoring active security conditions alongside network health.

Visualize connectivity to undiscoverable Google VPC peering endpointsOpen

NetBrain currently cannot represent connectivity to a Google Cloud VPC peering endpoint when that peered VPC is not discoverable or accessible within the domain, leaving the relationship absent from topology maps. This enhancement would allow NetBrain to display a placeholder or logical representation of the peering connection to the unknown VPC, even when the peer device itself cannot be discovered. Customers operating multi-VPC or multi-account GCP environments would gain more complete topology visibility and a clearer understanding of cross-VPC connectivity without requiring full access to every peered environment.

Side-by-side split view for commonly paired application tabsOpen

The application's tab-based navigation currently supports only one active tab at a time, requiring users to repeatedly switch back and forth between related tabs to complete a single workflow. This enhancement would allow commonly paired tabs, such as Sites and Groups or Incident Manager and Network Change, to be opened and viewed side by side in a split layout rather than being mutually exclusive. Providing this capability would streamline workflows that depend on cross-referencing information across two tabs, reducing repetitive navigation and improving overall efficiency for users managing devices, incidents, and network changes.

Search/Filter Box for Scheduled Discovery and Benchmark Task ListOpen

The Scheduled Discovery and Benchmark list currently provides no built-in search or filter capability, requiring administrators to rely on browser-native Ctrl-F functionality to locate a specific task. This limitation becomes more pronounced as the number of configured scheduled tasks grows. This enhancement proposes adding a dedicated search/filter box directly within the Scheduled Discovery/Benchmark list interface, allowing administrators to quickly locate a specific task by name or other identifying criteria. Providing this capability would reduce time spent manually scanning or relying on browser search tools, improving efficiency for administrators managing large numbers of scheduled tasks.

Per-Domain Node License Utilization Threshold AlertingOpen

NetBrain currently does not provide a per-domain breakdown of node license utilization, nor does it offer automated alerting when utilization approaches a defined threshold. Administrators must manually track and calculate utilization across domains on a recurring basis to avoid unexpected capacity issues. This enhancement would provide a capability to export node license utilization broken down by domain and trigger an email alert per domain when utilization crosses an administrator-defined threshold. This would reduce manual monitoring effort and give administrators advance notice to plan for additional license capacity before limits are reached.

Readable Formatting for Multi-Status Intent Results Posted to ServiceNowOpen

When multiple Network Intent status codes are posted together to a ServiceNow incident, they currently appear as a single unformatted string, making the combined result difficult to read. This enhancement would apply readable formatting, such as line breaks or a list layout, when multiple status codes are included in a single ServiceNow update. Customers reviewing incidents with multi-status results would benefit from clearer, more scannable diagnostic information without needing to parse a dense text block.

Documentation on License Limit Interaction with Hostname Change DetectionOpen

NetBrain does not currently provide clear documentation explaining how license limits interact with the detection and update of hostname-changed devices, including whether Generic devices count toward the overall license total. This lack of clarity leaves administrators uncertain about why changed devices may not be redetected during a scheduled discovery task when license usage is at capacity. This enhancement would add documentation that explains how license-limit enforcement affects the hostname-change detection workflow and clarifies how Generic devices factor into license consumption. Customers would benefit from a clearer understanding of license behavior, reducing confusion and support inquiries related to unexpected detection gaps.

Global Setting to Disable Smart CLI Pop-UpOpen

NetBrain currently displays the Smart CLI pop-up to all users with no global setting available to disable it when the feature is not in use. This enhancement would introduce an administrator-configurable, global on/off switch that suppresses the Smart CLI pop-up entirely for organizations that do not use this workflow. Customers who do not rely on Smart CLI would benefit from a cleaner interface and reduced unnecessary prompts, improving overall usability for their environment.

Absolute Value-Based Threshold Support for Service Monitor AlertsOpen

Service Monitor threshold configuration currently supports only percentage-based conditions, which does not allow administrators to alert on absolute values such as remaining free disk space in gigabytes. This limitation can produce alerts that are either too sensitive or not sensitive enough depending on the total capacity of the monitored resource. This enhancement would add support for absolute value-based thresholds within Service Monitor, allowing administrators to configure alerts such as "less than 1GB free" in addition to existing percentage-based options. Customers would gain more precise and meaningful alerting, particularly for large-capacity systems where a percentage threshold alone does not accurately reflect operational risk.

Ability to Dismiss or Clear Service Monitor Alert Pop-UpsOpen

Service Monitor alert pop-ups currently cannot be dismissed or cleared once triggered, including by an administrator, which causes the notification to persist and block use of the user interface. This enhancement would introduce a mechanism, such as a dismiss or clear control, that allows an administrator to close an active alert pop-up without waiting for the underlying condition to resolve on its own. Providing this control would restore normal use of the interface during active alert conditions and reduce disruption for administrators managing ongoing service issues.
