SolarWinds Automation Integration

Extend SolarWinds with Real-Time Network Automation

NetBrain integrates with SolarWinds to turn alerts into automated diagnostics. When an issue is detected, NetBrain maps the network, analyzes device behavior, and executes workflows to identify root cause. This reduces manual triage and improves operational consistency.

Trigger Diagnostics from SolarWinds Alerts

Through SolarWinds Network Automation Integration, SolarWinds identifies the issue; NetBrain analyzes the context behind it by mapping topology, validating intents, and executing diagnostic workflows.

How It Works

SolarWinds Event or Alert

A threshold violation or device issue is detected.

Integration Trigger

Alert data can trigger NetBrain via API or ITSM workflow to initiate automated investigation.

NetBrain Investigates

Topology mapping, diagnostics, and TAF workflows are executed to validate device behavior and network state.

SolarWinds Updated

Results and diagnostic summaries can be referenced in operations workflows for improved visibility and coordination.

Why It Matters

SolarWinds provides broad device polling, topology views, and alerting focused on detection and monitoring. Teams still need to validate what’s actually happening on the live network, understand impact, and run consistent diagnostics.

With SolarWinds Network Automation Integration, NetBrain combines real-time intent checks and automated workflows so every alert can be followed by contextual investigation. This turns SolarWinds data into actionable diagnostics instead of manual triage.

  • Automated diagnostics triggered by SolarWinds events
  • Path-level visibility for detected issues
  • Operational consistency across NOC workflows
