11. Elevate

Elevate enables centralized monitoring and management of OpenNAC instances. It provides greater responsiveness and analysis in the event of an incident or anomaly occurring on an OpenNAC instance. In addition, Elevate allows the monitoring of quantitative and qualitative business data that can help better understand the network’s state.

Elevate’s architecture consists of two components:

  • Central Services: This is the component in charge of receiving the data, storing them, and allowing the operators to visualize the information.

  • OPCC (On-Premises Communication Component): Component in charge of communicating with the corresponding OpenNAC instance, obtaining its data, and sending it to the central services.

The Central Services component is unique and can be located in a data center or a Cloud provider while each OPCC component is located in each OpenNAC instance to be monitored.

In the following sections, we will guide you through the fundamental operational tasks, illustrating how to effectively visualize data, monitor OpenNAC instances, and generate alerts.
