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.4 votes -
Tag support in Sensor Factory
As a PRTG admin setting up sensors using Sensor Factory we have the need to dynamically update sensors using the API to add tagging to aggregate upstream traffic across links so that I can have the right data for monitoring and reporting purposes due to constant changes in our network.

Enhanced sFlow Sensor Support for GRE (IP Protocol 47) Traffic
As a Network Engineer monitoring network infrastructures with GRE tunneling, I want the sFlow sensor to sample GRE (IP protocol 47) traffic so that I can gain complete visibility into all network traffic flows, including tunneled traffic. Currently, PRTG sFlow sensor only samples UDP and TCP traffic.

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.

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

HTTP Push Data Advanced Sensor: Graceful Resume from Paused Maintenance Windows
As a Systems Engineer managing servers with outbound-only connectivity, I want HTTP Push Data Advanced sensors to gracefully resume monitoring after maintenance windows by using the most recent push data received during the pause, so that I don't get false alarms and can maintain accurate monitoring continuity during planned maintenance.

Enhanced SSH Disk Free Sensor Threshold Management with "ANY Partition" Option and Group-Level Sensor-Specific Triggers
As a Systems Engineer managing multiple servers with multiple disk volumes, I want to configure disk space threshold triggers that apply to ANY partition across servers in a group so that I can efficiently monitor disk space without spending weeks manually configuring individual partition thresholds.

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 trapsAcceptance 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.1 vote -
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.
