Ozark-Connect/NetworkOptimizer v1.17.0 on GitHub

The big one. Full time-series network monitoring with a 3D real-time traffic visualization, latency and device health charting, and automated upstream path discovery. See v1.16.0 release notes for what came before.

What's New

Network Monitoring - SNMP-based polling with InfluxDB 2.x storage. Interface counters, device health, latency probes, SFP optical levels, and WiFi client snapshots - all with configurable retention and a setup wizard that handles bucket and token provisioning automatically.
3D LAN Flow Map - Real-time Three.js visualization of your entire network topology with directional particle-flow traffic. WASD navigation, fullscreen mode, double-click any client to open their performance dashboard. Filter by band, network, or search by name.
Upstream Path Discovery - Automated traceroute-based discovery of your ISP's access infrastructure, transit networks, and internet service endpoints. Identifies your OLT/CMTS, ISP edge routers, and transit ASNs with both ICMP and UDP probes.
SFP/ONT optical monitoring - Live RX/TX power, temperature, voltage, and bias current for PON SFP modules. Auto-detects GPON vs XGS-PON from a database of common modules (Calix, Zyxel, Nokia, Leox, ODI, SourcePhotonics, and more). Shows a 2.5 Gbps upgrade hint for GPON modules on UCG/UXG-Fiber gateways.

Latency & Packet Loss

Time-series RTT and packet loss charts across four target categories - LAN fabric, ISP access hops, transit networks, and internet services
Per-target filter badges with solo-click UX
Time range presets (15m to 30d), shift arrows to pan the window, and a custom date range picker
Sub-15 ms query performance via InfluxDB tag-indexed queries

Device Health

Temperature, CPU, and Memory charts per network device
Gateway temperature via LM-SENSORS SNMP OID
AP CPU collection via hrProcessorLoad walk (ssCpuIdle not supported on APs)
Memory calculation excludes cache to show actual usage
Dashboard device cards show live CPU, memory, and temperature at a glance

Security Audit

DNS VIP support - New TrustedDnsRedirectTargets setting lets operators allowlist virtual IPs (keepalived, HAProxy, anycast) as valid DNAT redirect targets. Thanks to @jedis00 for the contribution.

Fixes

Firmware 5.1.12 - Bumped max supported firmware
Reverse proxy docs - Clarified .env configuration for reverse proxy setups
Settings defaults - InfluxDB bucket defaults now match the setup wizard
API endpoint refactor - Moved from inline Program.cs to Endpoints/*.cs modules

Installation

Windows: Download the MSI installer below

Docker:

docker compose pull && docker compose up -d

macOS (native, recommended for accurate speed tests vs Docker Desktop):

git clone https://github.com/Ozark-Connect/NetworkOptimizer.git && cd NetworkOptimizer && ./scripts/install-macos-native.sh
# or if you already have it cloned
cd NetworkOptimizer && git pull && ./scripts/install-macos-native.sh

Proxmox:

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ozark-Connect/NetworkOptimizer/main/scripts/proxmox/install.sh)"

For other platforms (Synology, QNAP, Unraid, native Linux), see the Deployment Guide.
