Events log

MyNet keeps a unified event log that captures everything — device changes, network edits, monitoring alerts, IP conflicts, and system activity. Every action is attributed to a user with a timestamp.


Contents


What Gets Logged

Event Type Triggered by
Device created / updated / deleted Any editor action on a device
Device deployed Deploying from the Stock page
Device imported Importing via CSV or backup restore
Device offline Monitoring: consecutive ping failures exceed threshold
Device recovered Monitoring: a previously-offline device responds
WAN offline / recovered WAN ping target becomes unreachable / recovers
Network created / updated / deleted Any editor action on a network
IP conflict detected / resolved Duplicate IP found across NICs
MAC conflict detected / resolved / suppressed Duplicate MAC found across NICs
System startup MyNet service started
Backup created / restored Export downloaded or import completed
User actions Login, user creation, password changes (admin actions)

Event Severity & Categories

Severity

Severity Color Meaning
Critical Red Requires immediate attention (e.g. device offline, WAN down)
Warning Amber Something needs review (e.g. IP conflict, repeated failures)
Info Grey Normal activity (device edits, system startup, etc.)

Categories

Category Events included
Monitoring Device offline/recovered, WAN offline/recovered
Conflict IP conflicts, MAC conflicts
Device Device CRUD, deployment, import
Network Network CRUD
System Startup, backup, restore
User Action Admin-initiated user management

Events Page

Navigate to /events to see the full event log.

Filtering

Use the filter bar to narrow events by:

Filter Options
Severity Critical, Warning, Info
Category Monitoring, Conflict, Device, Network, System, User Action
Entity Type Device, Network, Location, System
Active Only Show only unresolved events
Search Full-text search across event messages

Pagination

Events are shown in reverse-chronological order, 100 per page (up to 500 total). Use Load More to fetch additional pages.

Event Detail

Each event row shows:

  • Severity icon and color
  • Category badge
  • Message
  • Entity name (linked to the device or network if applicable)
  • Username of the actor (or system for automated events)
  • Timestamp
  • Resolution status

Alert Bell

The bell icon in the navigation bar shows a count of unresolved critical and warning events. Click it to jump to the Events page filtered to active alerts.


Acknowledging Events

Acknowledging an event marks it as resolved. This removes it from the active alert count.

Acknowledge a single event: Click the checkmark icon on any event row.

Acknowledge all: Use the Acknowledge All button to bulk-resolve all active events. You can filter by severity first (e.g. acknowledge all warnings only).

Acknowledgement is logged: the system records who acknowledged it and when.

Requires Editor role or higher.


Conflict Detection

MyNet scans for IP and MAC address conflicts automatically:

  • On startup — a full scan runs when the service starts
  • Every 10 minutes — a periodic background scan checks all NICs
  • On device save — a targeted scan runs when a device is created or edited

IP Conflicts

Two NICs assigned the same IP address (on the same network) trigger a Warning event. The event names both devices.

MAC Conflicts

Two NICs with the same MAC address trigger a Warning event. This can happen legitimately (e.g. a device with the same MAC on two VLANs via a trunk port). To suppress a known false-positive:

  1. Open the device with the conflicting NIC
  2. Edit the NIC
  3. Enable Suppress MAC conflict

A MAC Conflict Suppressed info event is logged.

Resolving Conflicts

When the duplicate IP or MAC is corrected (by editing the device), MyNet automatically creates a conflict resolved event and removes the active warning.
