Technical diagram and data flow
Central: data visualisation via HTTPS, backup storage on GIT repository, monitored device configurations. Users can access data according to the type of permissions assigned to them via ACLs.
Git: the repository is private and not accessible from outside, data is read and updated from Central.
Poller: SSH on TCP port 22 (encrypted) is used to communicate with Central to send configuration backups.
Network device (switch, firewall, router): Pollers connect via SSH on TCP port 22 (encrypted) and depending on the device (vendor) a command is executed to show the configuration (e.g. show config) and then communicate it to Central.
