Automatic Network Topology Mapping in PRTG
We would love to see native automatic topology mapping built directly into PRTG, without requiring a third-party integration like UVExplorer.
The idea is simple: after auto-discovery runs, PRTG should be able to automatically generate a visual topology map that reflects the real physical and logical relationships between devices — including layer-2 (switch/port relationships) and layer-3 (routing) connections.
What we're looking for:
A dynamically generated topology map that updates as the network changes
Integration with the existing Maps/Dashboards editor so topology views can be embedded in dashboards
The ability to drill down from the topology map directly into device and sensor details
Why this matter:
SolarWinds already offers this capability natively through its Network Topology Mapper, and it is one of the features that customers frequently highlight when evaluating monitoring platforms. We are aware of several customers who are considering switching from SolarWinds to PRTG, but the absence of native automatic topology mapping is a blocker for them. Having this feature in PRTG would not only retain these potential customers but also make PRTG a truly complete and competitive network monitoring solution.
