Auto-Map Network Topology Using LLDP/CDP Discovery Data
As a Network Engineer, I want PRTG to automatically map network devices and their interconnections on maps using LLDP/CDP neighbor data — including port-level connection details — so that I can maintain an accurate, up-to-date network topology visualization without manual effort, and leverage the same discovery data to automatically configure device dependencies.
Should also be great if this can be used together with autodiscovery. But adding device to a map will auto connect to the devices in this same map with port info.

Deep Search Across Monitored Sensor Values for Asset Identification
As a Systems Engineer, I want to search across current (and historical) sensor values — such as SNMP-learned data and custom sensor results — so that I can quickly identify a device in PRTG using identifiers like a serial number or asset tag, without needing to know the hostname or IP address.
Request: Please add an advanced search option that can search across current (and ideally historical) sensor values, including SNMP and custom sensor results.
Use case: We often only have a serial number / asset tag from inventory or field service and need to quickly identify the corresponding device…

Dynamic Device Naming via SNMP sysName with Customizable Name Templates
As a Network Engineer,
I want PRTG to automatically populate and update device names based on SNMP sysName (OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0) — with support for customizable name templates similar to the existing Port Name Templates —
so that device names in PRTG always reflect the actual configured hostnames on my devices, eliminating the need to maintain naming in two separate places.2 votes -
PRTG: Native MFA for Local PRTG Accounts
Priority: High (KRITIS-relevant, multiple customer requests)
Description:
Customers require native Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for local PRTG accounts without dependency on external Identity Providers (Azure AD, Okta).Current State:
MFA only available via SSO/SAML with external IdP
No native MFA for local user accounts in PRTG Network Monitor/Enterprise MonitorCustomer Requirements:
Security-by-design instead of reactive implementation via third-party providers
Digital sovereignty – avoid dependency on US hyperscalers (Azure AD)
KRITIS compliance without additional infrastructure (IdP)4 votes -
MSP Branding Support for PRTG Web UI
As an MSP, we want to brand the PRTG web interface so that it represents our company towards our customers. As a minimum requirement, we need an officially supported way to customize the login page. Ideally, this supported scope would also allow basic customization of other key UI elements to match our corporate design.
Today, adjustments would be possible by modifying local HTML and CSS files, but this approach is not update safe and will very likely be overwritten by future PRTG updates. We also could not find a current, supported solution in the Knowledge Base. In addition, the comment…

Optional Automatic Creation of User Group Home Device Groups and Notification Templates
As an IT Infrastructure Manager,
I want the ability to disable the automatic creation of device groups and notification templates when creating user groups,
So that I can maintain a cleaner organizational structure aligned with my existing Active Directory groups and Exchange distribution lists, without having to repeatedly delete automatically-generated objects that I don't use.Use case: We mainly use Active Directory groups in PRTG, and the group names always differ from the names of the device groups. The objects are always created on the core server, where we do not create any additional sensors. The templates for notifications are…

Network Configuration Manager (NCM) Module for PRTG - Device Configuration Management and Change Tracking
As a Network Administrator/IT Infrastructure Manager, I want a Network Configuration Manager module integrated within PRTG that can automatically backup, track, and manage network device configurations, so that I can ensure configuration compliance, quickly identify unauthorized changes, maintain configuration history for rollback purposes, and reduce manual configuration management overhead while keeping all network management activities within a single platform.

Improve Offline Activation Handling for PPEM Subscription Renewals
=== Summary ===
Many of our PPEM (PRTG Enterprise Monitor) customers operate in offline environments without internet access. In such cases, subscription renewals require offline re-activation, but the current specification provides only a very short grace period. This poses a significant operational burden, especially for MSPs managing multiple PRTG instances.=== Behavior in Offline Environments During Subscription Renewal ===
• After the subscription renewal date, offline re-activation is required.
• This re-activation cannot be performed before the renewal date.
• Once the previous subscription period ends, a 3-day grace period begins, after which UI access becomes unavailable.
• Although monitoring…3 votes -

SLA Reporter: Modern Authentication for Email Sending (OAuth2)
As a IT administrator, I want SLA Reporter to support OAuth2-based email sending, so that I can securely integrate it with Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace without using legacy/basic authentication. Currently, SLA Reporter supports standard email sending, but does not support Modern Authentication (OAuth2).

Change from a license key concept to an account ID
As a PRTG administrator I am confused that Paessler is still using license keys while the product is subscription based. This seems to be from a time when the product was perpetual. It is unclear if the product will stop working after the expiration of the key and if the user has still access. More visibility into the subscription would be handy or better yet link it to my userid where I can login and see my license status
