Expand DDI Monitor's Reach with PCN's DDI Drone!
PCN’s DDI Monitor provides a comprehensive solution for DNS and DHCP monitoring of all major commercial and open source DDI solutions; however, in some cases, at least one DDI Drone is desirable. Our Drone software is containerized, and can be deployed on any container host. Alternatively, PCN can deploy a KAOS virtual or physical machine at your location.
PCN recommends implementing drones when …
- You have more than one location, you use anycast, and you need to ensure that appropriate services are available across all locations.
- You need to poll devices from within you local network.
- Your network is divided into several LANs by firewalls, and the PCN hosted probe cannot monitor specific services across these firewalls.
- You want to monitor systems in a secure network, and you need a secure connection between the DDI Monitor core server and the network.
