Enabling subnet monitoring

Subnet monitoring is enabled in the system settings.

Note: When you enable subnet monitoring, Micetro will only monitor IPv4 addresses, but not IPv6.

To enable subnet monitoring:

  1. Navigate to Admin > Event hooks.
  2. Select the Settings button (the cogwheel icon) in the top right corner of the Subnet monitoring events section.
  3. This takes you to the System settings. Check the Enable subnet monitoring checkbox.
  4. Enter the required information:
    • SMTP server: The mail server from which notification emails will be sent when the number of addresses goes below a certain threshold.
    • Mail from: The email address from which notification emails will be sent when the number of addresses goes below a certain threshold.
  5. Select Save.

When subnet monitoring is enabled, the system monitors the free addresses in DHCP address pools and subnets and acts if the number of free addresses goes below a user-definable threshold.

A new column, Monitoring, is added when viewing the subnet list in the data grid. To filter the view by this column and view all subnets that are monitored, you can enter “Monitor: Yes” in the quick filter search box.

Note: Only enabled DHCP scopes are monitored. Disabled scopes are ignored.
