Here's a copy of the email I received last week, which summarizes features and enhancements in v11.5 RC:
- -Build wireless heat maps for Cisco wireless controllers and display them right in Orion:
- Visualize your signal coverage to find poor coverage areas, improve them, and prove good quality coverage.
- Display wireless clients directly on the map to discover hot spots and help troubleshooting
- Forecast Capacity: automatically forecast capacity to identify future capacity issues before they affect your users.
- -Enable, disable, or adjust hardware health monitors for individual nodes.
- -Manage Poller improvements:
- New or rare devices in your environment showing up as unknown? Configure NPM to automatically identify them based on SysOID.
- Populate CPU and RAM fields using custom OIDs.
- -Monitor interface state and display it on a timeline; no more combing logs for interface UP/DOWN!
- -Detect interface duplex mismatches throughout your environment like never before.
- -Automated dependency mapping:
- -Automatically suppress alerts from dependent objects and focus on the root cause
- -New Alerting Engine
- Create alerts using new web-based condition builder
- Combine multiple object types in the same alert
- -Mandatory Custom Properties
- Flag Custom Properties as mandatory to avoid provisioning oversight
- -Automatic Geolocation on WorldMaps
- Based on SNMP location field, NPM will automatically place nodes on the World Map resource
