Enable WinRM HTTPS by default, Globally
Hi there, Currently, WinRM communication is set to use port 5985 over HTTP by default in . This means, that all communication after initial authentication (credential exchange over Kerberos in a domain environment) takes place, can be decoded. This also means, that if using WinRM in a WORKGROUP environment (non-domain…
Display log output for centralised upgrade
It would be great to see the status of the install on the centralised update screen rather than delving into the Logs files.
Improve Alerting of Thin APs / WAPs / Access Points
The Problem: when you monitor Thin APs (WAPs) then you need to ensure your polling cycle is greater than your alert "must exist for" condition. Why is this a Problem: Well, the method used by SolarWinds is that when a WAP goes down, then on the first poll cycle it spots this (via the WLC) and triggers a node warning. This…
Ability to install Network Collector on a different drive to C:
When deploying the agent software to a network collector we should be able to select the drive we want to install it on and this should update the script to be ran in PowerShell.
Text or HTML Widget for Modern Dashboards
It would be nice to have a Modern Dashboard Widget for formattable text or HTML. This would allow a splash page, or message on your Modern Dashboard NOC view rotation.
Audit Trail for IPAM
Restoration of full audit trail capabilities in IPAM following the breaking changes introduced in version 2026.1 that affected reports and widgets based on IPAM Events and IP History objects. Reference:…
UDT - Set of useful widgets
UDT is a very useful feature if turned on for all devices in the network but the precanned widgets are very limited - it would be great if more research could be put into this and a set of useful widgets provided. Things like unused ports (I know this one exists but it is very limited), unused ports that are up/down,…
Node status to show unreachable instead of down (similar to interface unplugged status)
This would be a customisable option that when a node is not responding it goes into an unreachable status rather than down status. Similar to how you can set interfaces to be unpluggable so they show an Unplugged status rather than Down. A Down status causes node trees, groups, and maps to show red statuses. This would be…
Ability to go back to a previous AI chat
Ability to access Conversation history across sessions would be a valuable feature - similar to what you see with ChatGPT's conversation history. This would give the ability to multi-task and carry on where I left off on a specific line of enquiry at a later point in time. Rather than having to re-enter data again to carry…
AI Chat, ability to export the full chat record
It would be good to have an "Export Conversation" button that creates a downloadable file (PDF, TXT, or HTML) with the complete chat history including both side of the conversation not only the AI side as currently covered by the copy button for the AI's single response. This would be incredibly useful.
