Making Gateway Work For You | Reporting

Session 4: Learn how to generate customized reports with Gateway that leverage data from BlueCat and from third-party IT service management tools.

Key Takeaways
  • Gateway enables customized, flexible reporting beyond the limitations of traditional, rigid network reports.
  • Reporting workflows in Gateway can be designed so that non-administrative users can access and run relevant reports without full admin privileges.
  • Customized reports can leverage data directly from BlueCat DNS/DHCP/IPAM to provide targeted operational and configuration insights.
  • Gateway supports integrating and generating reports using data from third-party IT service management (ITSM) tools.
  • Example workflows demonstrate how to build end-to-end reporting processes that combine BlueCat data with external systems for broader visibility.

Reports are fundamental to ensuring that your network is running smoothly. However, traditional reports are often rigid. They require administrative privileges to run and are seen as a tool reserved for power users. With Gateway, you can change that dynamic.

In this fourth episode of Making BlueCat Gateway Work for You, we will walk you through an example of what a customized report could look like. Furthermore, we’ll discuss some use cases. Using example workflows, you’ll learn:

  • how to generate your own customized report that leverages data from BlueCat, and
  • how to generate your own customized report from a third-party IT service management tool.
