The circuit, the devices, the prefixes, the tenant: all of it goes into NetBox, because that&amp;rsquo;s where the truth lives.
Then someone opens ThousandEyes and types it in again. Pick the agents, set the interval, paste the URL, attach an alert rule. The same facts entered a second time into a second system, with a second chance to get them wrong. This is also the half of onboarding that gets skipped when the person who knows how to do it is on holiday, and you find that out months later during an incident, when you go looking for a test nobody ever created.</description></item></channel></rss>
