How can isITon monitor devices on my network through my firewall? Is this a security risk?
Some firewalls have the ability to securely pass the types of data isITon uses to monitor your systems (SNMP, ICMP, etc). But even for those that don’t, security risks are minimal. Monitoring is done from a secure network. By knowing the IP addresses of isITon’s monitoring servers, it is possible to configure your firewalls and routers to allow isITon to monitor your intranet servers without leaving them exposed to the security risks of the general internet.
