Open agent to Netpath

Hi Solarwinds

I like Netpath and it could be BIG if it could be deployed not only on windows OS.

In that i picture some kind of industrial hardware or miniPC that run some kind of embedded linux

That could be perfect for remote office environment and telco POP without IT stuf.

Regardless of whether the agent framework supports Linux or not, the NetPath plugin that does the probing would have to support Linux for NetPath to be installed on Linux devices. The upcoming SAM release certainly won't include that.

That for getting that clear..
I know you can't give a date or what release ...
but can you commit that it's something Solarwinds will work on...
That will be cool if you can change the FR to "somethings we work on"

The opposite is true, I'm afraid. We're not currently planning to build that, but I'm keeping my eye on requests like this to determine if we need to change that.

Thanks for getting that clear...
somehow I expected that as the next step for Netpath...
Like planglois wrote we looking for something that could run diagnostics and quality of experience from
places that you just can't have Windows server or PC ....
