How to set component statuses for fan and power supplies

Auvik can now monitor the component statuses for fan and power supplies. This functionality will allow teams to proactively monitor the health of critical hardware components, such as power supplies and fans.

Is component monitoring available on ALL of my devices?

Auvik has been working diligently to add support for many devices. The first large update was for Cisco and HPE devices followed by Ubiquiti, Netgear and Dell. There will be more devices in future updates.

To best understand if a device is supported navigate to its page and check to see if the fan and power supply health widgets are displayed.
