WHAT WE ARE WORKING ON FOR NTM (UPDATED NOV 27, 2019)

We are currently in the planning phase for the next release, we are investigating following areas. As we move forward we will update this post to reflect what we are working on short-term.


Some of these items include:

  • Support for new VMware versions
  • Support for usage of TLS 1.2 only (after 1.1 disabling)
  • Bug fixes

PLEASE NOTE:  We are working on these items based on this priority order, but this is NOT a commitment that all of these enhancements will make the next release.  We are working on a number of other smaller features in parallel.   If you have comments or questions on any of these items (e.g. how would it work?) or would like to be included in a preview demo, please let us know!

  • It's officially been over four years since 2.2.2 was released.

    I might appreciate the update from Nov 2019, if it appeared more than a maintenance release.

    I'm not sure supporting recent VMware version could even be considered an added feature. VMware 6.7 has been out for quite some time now (2018).

    Another area NTM is blind; Cisco-Meraki which other products on the market are already working with via API.

  • NTM is mostly dead.  The last release was 2.2.2 in Jan 2016.  In the thread above back in 2017 they said only minor updates were going to happen, but nothing in four years.

  • i just want to know what solarwinds is doing with this tool..

  • Any updates or change of support expectations?

    I am glad it is a separate product as the change to the deployment/ update tools that ties it all together gave me major headaches when we dropped one product we didn't seem to get any use/ value for money.

    This way we can drop this from maintenance without issue/ imapct on other tools we are keeping until next review. 

  • I always thought this should have never been a separate product.  It should have been the new network atlas from the start.  Now with newer mapping in NPM it seems there should be some way to combine the best of both NTM and new NPM mapping together.
