Field area networks, such as shop floors, often contain a large number of critical IoT devices, like RFID badge readers and others. Cisco DNAC Assurance monitors the network health of IoT devices, while Cisco Kinetic monitors the health of the IoT device. When network or device issues arise, security procedures must be put in place before the issue is resolved. Automating these procedures helps support staff focus on quickly resolving device issues with. ItalTel’s custom Netwrapper keeps track of key IoT devices by monitoring both Cisco DNA Center Assurance and Cisco Kinetic device status. Depending on network health and device status, Netwrapper can drive actions on devices, like closing doors or gates, or initiate external services and devices, like turning security cameras on through Webex Teams. Once security and safety procedures are initiated, the support team can focus on quickly resolving device issues with the confidence that critical security and safety protocols are already in place.
