New features

Check the status of a service in real time

Within Multisite Monitoring, for services monitored using SNMP or Direct Agent, there will be an option to check the service in real time:

Real time graph

The interval between checks for network interfaces monitored using SNMP is 15 seconds, due to the minimal update interval of the SNMP databases. All the other services are checked every second.

Note: the data generated by the real time feature will not be stored and will not trigger alerts or notifications.
