Network Alerts

Author: abhishek9686Created Jul 20, 2026Updated Jul 20, 2026

Summary

Introduce proactive network alerting so operators are notified when connectivity, node health, or security-relevant conditions change - before users report issues.

Goals

  • Detect and notify on important network events (e.g. node offline, gateway degradation, ACL/policy violations, unusual connectivity)
  • Support configurable alert rules and notification channels
  • Complement existing SIEM export with actionable, near-real-time operator alerts
  • Improve MTTR for network and access incidents

Scope (initial)

  • Alert rule definitions (thresholds, conditions, severity)
  • Core event types: node status, gateway health, connectivity failures, security events
  • Notification integrations (e.g. email, webhook; optionally Slack/Teams)
  • Alert history and acknowledgment in the UI/API

Success criteria

  • Admins can define and enable alert rules per network/tenant
  • Alerts fire reliably for configured conditions
  • Notifications are delivered to configured channels with enough context to act
