Hi Everyone,
As Network Engineering I always wants things to be simplified and minimal step to achieve the goal. As we all know SolarWinds act as proxy server to SSH into all network devices but to SSH into first you need to search for specific node and then you need to goto that node summary page where you can locate the SSH link under Node management widget. This in my view has lots of step to just gain ssh terminal access for any particular node.
For this reason I have created the following dashboard which will simplify lots of things for. First it list out all the nodes in a single view and searching a node really quick as we do a single query when loading the dashboard. In the Dashboard you find the link to node page by clicking on the Node. You will also see node IP, Node vendor class, Node status and Node Critical Stats in addition to the most important thing you have a SSH tab which has link to node SSH web terminal.
This way you will quickly SSH into any managed node via NPM/NCM. Hope it help out many of you.
Thanks,
