Before getting into the details, let's take a look at the way Netify organizes deployment assets.

Organizations, Sites and Agents

In order to support multitenant architectures and user-based access control, Netify network information is organized into a data hierarchy. If you are already familiar with Netify's concept of Organizations, Sites and Agents, please feel free to skip this section!

Netify deployments can range from a single office location to large distributed enterprises. Imagine the scenario where Acme Company has two office locations:

Toronto
Ottawa

To get full network visibility, these two medium-sized offices have deployed two Netify agents across their local networks:

1st and 2nd floor in Toronto
East and west wings in Ottawa

With these 4 Netify Agents in place, Acme Company is able to get full visibility across their network.
