Execute Lua script

The Execute Lua script event is capable of executing a Lua script. Lua is the scripting language natively supported by Network Monitor. Many useful scripts can be found on the customer portal http://www.kaseya.com/support/Downloads.aspx). See Lua for more information.

Execute LUA script event settings

Event settings

  • Script - Select the script to be executed. Lua scripts used with Network Monitor should be placed in the KNM\scripts folder of the KNM host machine. Once a script has been selected, individual fields for the script parameters display.
  • No account logon - If this option is selected, Network Monitor does not perform Windows authentication before executing the script. Instead, the specified logon account information is passed to the script as a parameter. This is useful for scripts that want to perform custom logons, for example, with SSH2. See Logon account below.
  • Hostname - The hostname of the remote SNMP agent. This can be either a DNS name or an IP address.
  • Logon account - If a logon account is specified, Network Monitor performs Windows authentication with the specified host before executing the script. This is useful for scripts that require authentication before executing.
