Cisco integration
Centralize Cisco Catalyst Center network management with unified service workflows for device inventory, configuration control, and incident response.
What it connects
- Network device inventory including routers, switches, firewalls, and wireless access points with software versions and serial numbers
- Site hierarchy and location mappings across areas, buildings, and floors with device assignments
- Interface status, connectivity, VLAN assignments, and network topology across all managed devices
- Virtual LAN configurations and IP address assignments per device with address space tracking
What it automates
- Deploy configuration templates to network devices with approval gates before changes apply
- Assign devices to sites and update their location context within the network hierarchy
- Execute read-only troubleshooting commands on devices for diagnostics and status verification
- Reboot access points and trigger network discovery scans for infrastructure changes
In practice
A critical interface goes down; STLabs pulls the device topology, creates an incident ticket with neighbor devices and running configs, and escalates to the network team.
Network engineers submit a change to deploy QoS templates to branch routers; STLabs enforces peer approval, validates against current config baselines, then deploys during the maintenance window.
New access points arrive at a remote site; STLabs creates a provisioning workflow that assigns them to the correct site hierarchy, runs discovery scans, and validates connectivity before handing off to operations.
The annual firmware upgrade campaign begins; STLabs queries device software versions, automatically creates change tickets for devices out of compliance, and coordinates staged image distribution and activation.
