FAQ
Does this work for multi-vendor environments?
Yes. Vendor and model are fields; the agent handles Cisco, Aruba, Juniper, Ubiquiti, and others side-by-side.
Can the agent suggest port-density optimization?
Yes. Agent reviews port utilization and flags switches with persistent low utilization for consolidation.
What plan supports a network team?
Pro ($10/mo annual) handles small networks. Business ($25/mo) for multi-site networks with audit logs.
