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…

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.
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…

Scheduled tasks sensor
As a Windows Admin using PRTG I need to be able to monitor my business processes running as scheduled tasks so that I can ensure my business processes are executing.
Today this is done via external tools and managing them is not ideal. There was a deprecated sensor for this but nothing really took its place. See https://www.reddit.com/r/prtg/comments/1lececg/if_youre_using_scheduledtask2xmlexe_from_prtg/

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.4 votesHi there,

Add support for SNMPv3 authNoPriv mode in PRTG
As a network engineer managing devices from ISPs and vendors with restricted SNMP configurations, I want PRTG to support SNMPv3 authNoPriv mode (authentication without encryption) so that I can monitor critical infrastructure devices that only allow this security level.
Currently, PRTG only supports SNMPv3 with authPriv (authentication + encryption). Many providers, e.g. Telekom, only offer SNMPv3 in authNoPriv mode.
Example configuration (as provided by Telekom, not changeable):
Mode: authNoPriv
Authentication Protocol: MD5
Privacy (Encryption): NoneSince PRTG does not support authNoPriv, monitoring such devices is currently impossible.

SNMP Interface Traffic Sensor with ifLastChange Channel for Interface Flapping Detection
As a Network Engineer managing critical network infrastructure, I want the SNMP Interface Traffic sensor to include an 'Interface Last Change' channel that monitors the ifLastChange timestamp, so that I can detect interface flapping and instability without having to create separate custom sensors for each interface or rely on SNMP traps.

Keyword detection on O365 sensor
As a PRTG user I would like to use the O365 sensor to be able to detect when I get an email with specific text in the subject or body so that I can monitor other processes for errors which are sending emails to report errors. Also, there's currently no option "If No Email Matches the Above Filters" for the MS365 Mailbox sensor as in the IMAP sensor.

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.

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.
