Keep track of such resources in your network as LANs, WANs, servers, websites, and others. Enable automatic network detection and device assessment using thousands of sensors and receive alerts via email, push-notifications, or triggering HTTP requests.
PRTG Network Monitor is a powerful yet easy to use the powerful network monitoring solution that allows you to set up your complete network monitoring scenario within minutes. This incredible program runs with 10,000s of sensors offering automatic network discovery, device assessment and sensor configuration. What is more, the application features a highly interactive and customizable interface for optimized usability, making this task a breeze. Moreover, it includes more than 35 sensor types for comprehensive monitoring of small, medium and large networks such as WMI, PING, HTTP, SNMP, SMTP, POP3, FTP, and "Smart” sensors that e.g. automatically discover quad-core CPUs and and monitor them individually as well as the total CPU load. In addition to this, the integrated Webserver supports SSL security, multiple logins, user groups and an HTTP-based API for interfacing with other applications. All in all, if you are looking for a comprehensive and easy to use network monitoring solution, PRTG Network Monitor is perfect for you.
v18.4.47.1962 [Oct 18, 2018]
WebGUI
- Notifications:
- You can now see all defined notification methods in your PRTG user account settings at a glance. The Notification Templates overview table has a new column that shows the Actions a notification template will perform when it is triggered.
- You can now use a search field to filter for existing notification templates when you add or edit a Notification Trigger.
- Maps: We improved the readability of map objects with status-related background colors.
Server:
- PRTG Core Server: Several performance and stability improvements for the PRTG core server
- Graphs: We updated the engine that PRTG uses to create data graphs. Thanks to the updated graphs engine, stacked graphs look better now!
- Logging: This version includes some more improvements for the logging framework.
Sensors:
- HTTP Push Data Advanced: The HTTP Push Data Advanced now supports UTF-8 characters in the section of received messages and can display, for example, Chinese, Japanese, or Russian characters in the sensor message.
- SNMP Trap Receiver: The SNMP Trap Receiver sensor now supports several modes for bindings that you can use with the syntax bindings[oid,value,mode].
Mode can be:
- substring: This is the default mode that works like bindings[oid,value].
- exact: This mode enforces an exact match of a value.
- equal, greater, greaterorequal, less, lessorequal: This mode compares received numbers with the defined value.
- Windows Updates Status (PowerShell): We changed the approach of the Windows Updates Status (PowerShell) sensor to avoid down states that are not meaningful enough. As of the current PRTG version, the sensor will always create the channel Time since last update. All other channels only show up if the sensor can retrieve according data. Furthermore, the channel value is more accurate now.
Server:
- PRTG Core Server: We fixed an issue with the PRTG core server. In certain cases, the issue lead to access violations in the PRTG server system that could result in issues with sending notifications or unexpected server restarts with sensors in unknown status.
- PRTG GUI Starter: We fixed several issues with the PRTG GUI Starter. It will work more reliable now.
- Security: We fixed a possible XSS vulnerability.
- Server Startup: We fixed an issue with the flowid field in toplists of NetFlow sensors that could result in an exception during the startup of the PRTG server. The PRTG server did not start in such cases.
Sensors:
- Channels:
- You can edit channel names in a sensor's channel settings again (where supported). In previous versions, the Name field in the channel settings often was read-only by mistake.
- If you select the Data option Display in percent of maximum in the settings of a sensor channel, PRTG will now interpret any set Limits as percentage based on the maximum value to avoid false alarms.
- Event Log (Windows API): The Exclude Filter of the Event Log (Windows API) sensor now correctly disregards all events that you have added to the filter, for example, event IDs.
- Flow Sensors: Stability improvements for the sensor types IPFIX, NetFlow V5, NetFlow V9, and sFlow: The fields FlowID, InboundInterface, and OutboundInterface in custom toplists are now stored with their field ID. In previous versions, they were stored as index, which could lead to issues when the list of fields changed.
- Lookups: Lists of lookup files are sorted alphabetically again when you select value lookups for a sensor channel. IDs of lookups are also loaded case insensitively again to prevent issues when you override default lookups with customs lookups.
- Sensor Factory: PRTG correctly calculates historic data of the Sensor Factory sensor again. In the last preview version, live data was used to calculate historic data instead of averages. This resulted in wrong values.
- SNMP Custom String Lookup: We fixed an issue with device templates that include an SNMP Custom String Lookup BETA sensor. When running an auto-discovery with the template, PRTG created an unused channel that was not defined for the sensor.
- SNMP sensors: SNMP sensors that support this functionality now only replace text within square brackets in the sensor name if the text is an OID or a defined variable. All other text will appear in the sensor name as it is.
- SNMP Trap Receiver: The SNMP Trap Receiver sensor now properly handles quotation marks (") in the filter for bindings and can find strings that contain quotation marks.
- UPS Health (Generic) Template: The device template UPS Health (Generic) now also supports Tripp Lite UPS, so running an auto-discovery with the template will create suitable sensors for your Tripp Lite UPS.
- WMI Sensors: You can now add the sensor types Windows Physical Disk I/O, WMI Exchange Server, WMI Exchange Transport Queue, WMI Logical Disk I/O, and WMI Vital System Data (V2) using the auto-discovery. The auto-discovery could not successfully add these sensor types in previous versions.
