How to Use NavCloud AI Insights to Fix Problems Before Users Notice
NavCloud AI Insights turns alarms, inventory and telemetry from every site into a network health index and a short, prioritised list of findings with the action that fixes each one.
Before you start
- A NavCloud account with your gateways, switches, APs and cameras added
- Devices assigned to sites
Step by step
Open Insights
In NavCloud, open Insights. The network health index summarises availability, configuration hygiene and security posture across all your sites.
Start with High priority
Findings are sorted by priority. Typical high-priority items: a site below the 99% service target, cameras or NVRs offline, or administrators without two-factor authentication.
Follow the recommended action
Each finding says what to do, for example: run RF Optimization to assign a non-overlapping channel plan, standardise on one approved firmware per model with a scheduled upgrade, or enable 2FA in Security Center.
Clean up the inventory
Insights flags devices that are not assigned to a site, and cameras seen on the network but missing from the inventory. Assign and add them so alarms, reports and topology are complete.
Set a baseline for rogue-device detection
Open Endpoints and approve the current devices as the baseline. New, unknown devices are then reported as findings.
Review weekly
Check Insights once a week, and run the network patrol health check before every customer review or SLA report.
Pro tips
- Resellers: warranty findings show renewal opportunities before they expire.
- Fix the cause, not the alarm: an unstable site usually points to one device in the topology and alarm history.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does Insights change my configuration?
