Advanced Functionality

NetOps modules leverage Opengear's remote presence and proximity to infrastructure by allowing software applications to run directly on top of the out-of-band management fabric. The NetOps modules enable automation of the configuration and operation of network infrastructure in data center and remote edge locations.

What is a NetOps Module

NetOps modules are software components that enable automation of specific operational scenarios (for example, network device provisioning), deployed as Docker containers. The modules become active on Lighthouse when a module license is installed and can then be manually or automatically activated on nodes.

Note: The availability of NetOps modules is dependent on your subscription type.

Subscriptions

NetOps modules require a Lighthouse with an appropriate subscription and modules to be uploaded and active. You will also require at least one node enrolled and able to use these modules.

Note: NetOps modules are not available with Lighthouse Core or Lighthouse Enhance subscriptions. For more information, see Subscription Types.
