Feature Request - Multipe sensor management

Votes:

0

In the management tab you can control+click multiple sensors, when I need to edit a lot of sensors this is very time consuming. Could we get the ability to select all the sensors of the selected type in the group.

Dear TechBeard

There is a way to do this when using the web interface.

  • Go to menu Sensors / By Type. Select the type
  • You get a web server URL like
/sensors.htm?filter_type=ping

Include a node which points to a probe, group or device. For example, to only get it for the local probe device, which has the object id 40, use

/sensors.htm?filter_type=ping&id=40

If there are more than 50 results, you can extend the output with the count parameter, like

/sensors.htm?filter_type=ping&id=40&count=100

Then you can use the master selection box to mark all sensors for a further multi-editing.
