   I have a couple of additional questions to make this more solid as we collect votes on this request :

   
   

   1. Which specific XCP-ng metrics are most critical for your monitoring needs?
   2. Do you need XOA-specific monitoring (backup jobs, user sessions) or primarily hypervisor metrics?

6. SNMP Trap Receiver sensor can persist its state

   User Story:
   As a Network Administrator managing critical infrastructure,
   I want SNMP Trap Receiver sensors to maintain persistent alarm states until problems are resolved,
   so that I don't miss critical issues that are only reported once via SNMP traps

   Acceptance Criteria:
   - SNMP Trap Receiver sensors can maintain error states until problems are actually resolved, not just until the next scan interval.
   - Users have multiple ways to clear persistent trap alarms (automatic clear traps, manual reset, or timeout).
   - The persistent state feature can be enabled/disabled to maintain compatibility with existing monitoring setups.

7. Developer API for creating SNMP sensors

   As an advanced user, I would like to use a framework in the form of a sensor API. This could be a Python library that allows me to use PRTG's internal SNMP stack with connection establishment, authentication, querying, etc., while also giving me the ability to build advanced SNMP sensors. This allows different OID trees to be combined in the code, which is not possible with SNMP custom sensors. This framework is intended to abstract the complexity of pure SNMP communication and allow developers to focus on logic and data processing.

8. Turn two devices into one - unifying PRTG device credential

   As a system administrator, I would like my physical devices to be represented in PRTG by a single virtual device in the UI to make things less confusing for me and my colleagues. Unfortunately, for certain devices and sensor technologies (MQTT, controller-managed devices), I need to create a second device in order to specify the address of the MQTT Broker or other "central" controller for sensor queries. Ideally, PRTG would allow the address of a device's controller to be defined in it's settings so that only one device is sufficient. Having one physical device mapped to one PRTG device would give me a better overview of my IT infrastructure.

10. Kubernetes Sensor

    As a DevOps Engineer, I need a native PRTG sensor to monitor the health and performance of my custom applications running in Kubernetes, so that I can gain immediate, centralized visibility into their operational status, proactively identify issues at the cluster, pod, and application level, and ensure the continuous availability and performance of my services.

    1. Kubernetes-Aware Monitoring:

       • Ability to target and understand applications deployed via Kubernetes constructs (e.g., Deployments, Pods, Namespaces).
       • Provide insights into the overall health and status of application deployments (e.g., how many instances are running vs. expected).
       • Report on the status and lifecycle of individual application pods and containers (e.g., running, restarting, unhealthy probes).

    2. Comprehensive Application Metrics:

       • Collect vital resource usage metrics for application containers (CPU, memory).
       • Monitor the responsiveness and availability of key application services or APIs exposed within Kubernetes.
       • Track internal application health indicators like queue depths, active connections, or pending tasks.
       • Gather application-specific error counts or critical event notifications.

    3. Clear & Actionable Insights:

       • Present all collected data as distinct, clearly labeled channels within PRTG (e.g., "Deployment Status," "Pod Restarts," "API Latency," "Application Errors").
       • Automatically apply sensible default thresholds (warning/error) to these channels, which can be easily adjusted.
       • Provide clear, descriptive messages when an application or its underlying Kubernetes components are in a warning or error state, helping to quickly pinpoint the problem.

    4. Easy Setup & Configuration:

       • Be discoverable and configurable directly within the standard PRTG web interface.
       • Allow straightforward selection of which Kubernetes namespaces, deployments, or application types to monitor.
       • Require minimal setup effort to connect to the Kubernetes cluster.

    5. Reliability & Performance:

       • Operate efficiently without significantly impacting the performance of the monitored Kubernetes cluster or the PRTG server itself.
       • Provide consistent and reliable data collection to prevent monitoring blind spots.

13. Stratum level channel for the SNTP Sensor

    As a sysadmin I would like to see the stratum level as integer in the SNTP sensor. That way I can set limits/alerts on it when the required stratum level is not reached.
    
    The correct stratum level is important for synchronisation of time on different machines.

14. Enable receiving SNMP Traps v3

    As a PRTG admin I would like to collect SNMP v3 traps from my devices that support this extra security level. My company and/or customers demand this security step in order to be 100% compliant.

    Affected Application
    PRTG // PRTG Network Monitor // Sensors and Probe

    How does this improve your daily work?
    Hi we got several requests from customers who want to receive SNMPv3 Traps in PRTG.
    At the moment only v1 and v2c traps are possible to be received.

    Our customers request these so to get the software 100% BSI-compliant.
    Otherwise they're refraining from procuring the tool at this stage.

    How important is this to you?
    High - Would really improve my work

    As a PRTG admin I would like to collect SNMP v3 traps from my devices that support this extra security level. My company and/or customers demand this security step in order to be 100% compliant.

    Affected Application
    PRTG // PRTG Network Monitor // Sensors and Probe

    How does this improve your daily work?
    Hi we got several requests from customers who want to receive SNMPv3 Traps in PRTG.
    At the moment only v1 and v2c traps are possible to be received.

    Our customers request these so to get the software 100% BSI-compliant.
    Otherwise they're refraining from procuring the tool at… more

15. Add a setting field for a TSIG key to the DNS v2 sensor

    As a PRTG user I want to monitor if my DNS server is delivering any addresses or the correct addresses depending on an internal or external request. DNS servers use TSIG keys to identify the type of request and answer it should deliver. If PRTG would support TSIG keys the answer of the server could be checked from one probe. The current workaround would be to create a probe for every context view the DNS server needs to be aware of.

16. Private and SMTP-TLS Certificate Expiration Monitoring

    As an IT Administrator, I want a native PRTG sensor to conveniently monitor the expiration dates of private and SMTP-TLS certificates, eliminating the need for custom scripts. This will ensure I'm proactively alerted to expiring certificates, preventing service disruptions and security vulnerabilities.

17. Minute-Level Email Filtering for IMAP Sensor

    As a PRTG user, I need to filter emails monitored by the IMAP sensor in minute intervals (e.g., "last 5 minutes" instead of "last 1 hour"). This will allow me to achieve greater granularity and detect critical, time-sensitive email notifications (like system alerts or transaction confirmations) much faster.

    Caveat: Implementing minute-level filtering will likely increase the load and resource consumption on the PRTG probe and core server due to more frequent and potentially more intensive checks.

18. Dynamic File Content Monitoring

    As a system administrator using PRTG,
    I want to configure a file content sensor using simple date placeholders or regex patterns to automatically find the correct log file each day,
    so that monitoring dynamic log files becomes straightforward and less time-consuming.

19. SQL sensor cluster awareness

    As a database administrator I want to monitor my SQL servers that are part of a cluster avoiding false positives due to cluster failover or health. If a failover happens PRTG and the SQL sensors should be aware of it so that I can get the right notification and not be overwhelmed by notifications

20. WMI Service sensor

    As user I want to use the WMI Service sensor with an account which has only read access as long as I use the option "Do not start/restart the service (default)".

    Because the WMI Service sensor has an option to restart the service in case it is not running, the user account for this sensor must be a write user. For optimal security I might want to use read-only accounts for monitoring. This would render the WMI restart option nonfunctional but allow me to not provide PRTG write access just to monitor the running status of a Windows service.
