Remote Agent
This IPNetwork Monitor release adds native Remote Network Agent builds for Linux, enabling monitoring of remote subnets that do not contain Windows-based machines.
Supported Distributions: Ubuntu and RHEL‑compatible distributions (e.g., CentOS, Oracle Linux).
Feature parity: The Linux build provides capabilities comparable to the Windows build of Remote Network Agent, with the following monitor types not supported on Linux:
Resources over Windows/WMI (Windows Service, WMI Traffic Speed/Volume, WMI CPU/Memory/Process/Disk Space)
ODBC Database
MSSQL Database (Microsoft SQL Server)
Oracle Database
Web Transaction Monitor
Hyper‑V hypervisor
Windows Event LogBehavior of unsupported monitors: If an unsupported monitor type is created on a Linux Remote Network Agent, the monitor will remain in the Down state, and the log will explicitly indicate that the monitor type is not supported.

Monitoring Client
Improved the user experience when configuring monitors on remote agents by disabling interactive file selection and providing clearer guidance. In previous versions, when editing a monitor located on a remote agent, the interactive “Select…” button for choosing files or folders (e.g., the Path parameter for a Python Script monitor) was available but non-functional, as it pointed to the local client machine instead of the remote agent’s host.
The Windows installer no longer removes externally installed Python packages. Modules you added to the built-in Python environment (in %PROGRAMFILES%\IPNetwork Monitor\Python-3) using pip will now be preserved during an upgrade.
Software Components
Third party tools such as Apache HTTP server, OpenSSL, curl and other libraries have been updated to their latest stable versions.
A built-in Python interpreter (also known as embedded Python) has been updated from 3.10.16 to 3.10.18.
