Platform Capabilities

Everything 5NinesNet actually does.

The full list. No roadmap items, no "coming soon." Each of these is running in production today and ships with every 5NinesNet deployment.

01 · AUTHENTICATION & ACCESS CONTROL
🔑

TACACS+ AAA

Full TACACS+ management UI backed by tac_plus. Per-user privilege levels, command authorization, and per-session audit trails with AD/LDAP integration.

tac_plus · AD · Priv 15
🔐

Linux OS Authorization

AD group membership drives not just portal access but Linux OS sudo policy. Each role maps to precise sudoers rules — NOC gets service status and log reads only, admins get service management, super admins get full access. Applied with one click, validated by visudo.

02 · MONITORING & OBSERVABILITY

SNMPv3 Monitoring

Full SNMPv3 AuthPriv support with SHA/AES. Poll CPU, memory, interfaces, errors, and custom OIDs from Cisco IOS, ASA, NX-OS, and more.

📡

Syslog Aggregation

Centralized syslog collection from all Cisco devices via rsyslog + Loki. Full-text search, filter by severity, device, facility. All correlated in Grafana.

rsyslog · Loki · Search

Grafana Alerting

Full Grafana Unified Alerting integration. Configure threshold alerts, SMTP/webhook notifications, silence windows, and alert routing — all from the portal UI.

Prometheus · Loki · PD
📺

NOC Wall View

Full-screen NOC dashboard optimized for operations center displays. Real-time device health, BGP status, active alarms, and syslog stream — all auto-refreshing, zero interaction required.

03 · CONFIGURATION & TOPOLOGY

Config Backup + Git

Automated config archival via Oxidized. Every change committed to Git with full diff viewer, rollback capability, and per-device history timeline.

Interactive Network Map

Drag-and-drop topology canvas with multi-hop chain links, ghost/alias nodes, SNMP interface pickers, and live right-click editing. Your actual network — not a diagram tool.

🛰

Static Routes Management

Add, remove, and manage persistent static routes on the NMS server directly from the portal. Routes are written to Netplan and survive reboots. Interface auto-detection, metric control, and one-click Apply — no CLI required.

Netplan · Persistent · No CLI
04 · PERFORMANCE & THROUGHPUT

Throughput & Performance Testing

Built-in iPerf3, ping, traceroute, and DNS test runner. Schedule recurring tests, clone existing ones, and visualize historical bandwidth and latency trends per device.

iPerf3 · Ping · Traceroute
🌐

Remote Nodes & Distributed Testing

Register remote NMS nodes via SSH key trust — no agents, no extra software. Performance tests run directly from the remote node via SSH so you measure real WAN throughput, not local loopback. UFW rules auto-scope to each enrolled node's IP.

Performance Metrics in Grafana

Every test result — latency, TCP throughput, UDP jitter, packet loss — is automatically pushed to Prometheus and available in Grafana. Dynamic dashboards with Source/Target dropdowns let you trend any test pair over time and correlate with SNMP interface errors on the same timeline.

05 · AVAILABILITY & SECURITY
🔁

High-Availability Failover

Active/Standby HA with VRRP VIP, automated rsync of Loki, Prometheus, syslog, and TACACS data. Preflight health checks before every sync. Zero-downtime management continuity.

VRRP · rsync · Preflight
🛡

UFW Firewall Manager

Visual rule management for the NMS server's UFW firewall. Add, remove, and audit ingress/egress rules without touching the CLI.

UFW · iptables · Policy

Fail2Ban IDS

Real-time intrusion detection dashboard. View active jails, banned IPs, ban/unban actions, and brute-force attempt timelines by source IP and service.

SSH · NGINX · TACACS
🔒

Zero-Trust Transparency

Customer-deployable packet capture and audit export. Prove to your clients exactly what data the NMS touches — a key differentiator over closed-source competitors.

PCAP · SBOM · Auditor-ready
06 · MSP & WHITE-LABEL

White-Label MSP

Deploy the full platform under your own brand. No 5NinesNet references. Complete theming, custom logos, customer-isolated tenants, and security transparency docs.
