User Management
Create and manage user accounts, assign roles, and link LDAP/OIDC auth sources in the NetStacks Controller admin panel and REST API.
Roles & Permissions
Define roles from the 14 NetStacks permission keys, build custom roles, and understand how the users.manage-gated RBAC controls access across the Controller.
Authentication (LDAP/OIDC)
Configure external authentication for NetStacks Controller: local accounts, LDAP/Active Directory, OIDC/OAuth2 SSO, and SSH certificate access.
System Settings
Configure NetStacks Controller: authentication, security, SSH/terminal, collection, integrations, plugins, HA, and the license — via the Settings UI and key-value API.
Activity Monitor
Unified operational feed for the NetStacks Controller: one chronological timeline aggregating nine event sources with filtering, live refresh, and a JSON API.
Audit Logs
Review the NetStacks Controller audit log: who did what, when, and from which IP. Filter by event type, resource, actor, and date range, and query the API.
HA Deployment
Deploy NetStacks Controller in active-active HA with multiple instances, Valkey Sentinel, external PostgreSQL, Nginx load balancing, TLS, and backups.
