  • To access the Entuity Advanced Device Details report: http://<entuityserver>:<entuitywebport>/webUI/objectDetails.do?server=${device.<EntuityServerID>}&menuName=Explorer&view=My Network&id=${device.<EntuityID>}
  • To access the Entuity Device Events report: http://<entuityserver>:<entuitywebport>/webUI/viewEvents.do?view=My Network&objectId=${device.<EntuityID>}&fltId=eFilter0
  • To access incidents on the Entuity dashbaord: http://<entuityserver>:<entuitywebport>/dashboard?dashboardName=Incidents&contextPath=,admin::My Network,sw: ${device.<EntuityServerID>}:${device.<EntuityID>}

    Note

    Starting from version 20.02, The referenced document [xwiki:Automation-DevSecOps.Network-Automation.TrueSight-Network-Automation.tsna251.TrueSight Network Automation 25\.1._Inclusion-Library._Common-terminology.WebHome] was not found. also supports the following special characters in the external link: ~, [ , ], @, !, ( , ), *, , , and %.

  • Depending on the version of Entuity Network Analytics, use one of the following URLs to access the Entuity Device Summary report:
