Polar Bear "Auvik" Slays Issues Across Multiple Networks
Auvik has been used to address many business cases and situations, including malware/crypto mitigation, emergency outage responses, validation of the network, and trending of network flows to create a baseline of the environment.
- Discovering interconnectivity of network devices
- Configuration management
- Inventory
- Troubleshooting
- Mapping complex multiple-site interconnectivity could use improvement
- Inability to turn off banner messages
- Switch stack membership could use a better visual representation on the map
Auvik is less well suited for managing single sites or single companies - it is really meant to be used at a larger scale.
Visualize whole network and get the tools to manage it!
- SNMP alerting
- Configuration backups
- Network diagramming
- The map is not easy to quickly zoom in and out of or pan around. Usually requires a lot of filter toggling. Keyboard shortcuts for this would be nice.
- Better global settings that can be pushed to multiple client organizations
- Security groups/RBAC for user permissions across multiple clients
- Ability to change the URL
