MyTik is the definitive network management dashboard tailored specifically for Network Engineers, ISPs, and Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs). Designed with a premium, ultra-minimalist aesthetic, it strips away traditional interface clutter to deliver high-performance monitoring and precision control. Engineered to be the live pulse of your infrastructure, MyTik securely connects you to your core routers, servers, and wireless links, providing actionable data at a glance. Core Engineering Features: • Advanced System Health: Deep monitoring of core router resources (CPU, RAM, Storage), alongside live sensor readings for Board Temperature and Voltage to ensure hardware stability in demanding environments. • PPPoE Client Management: Total control over your subscribers. Monitor live bandwidth consumption (RX/TX), track session uptime, view IP/MAC details, and seamlessly disconnect or manage accounts. • Wireless Links & Sectors: Dedicated tracking for your UBNT and Mimosa access points. Easily monitor sector status and connected station metrics. • LAN & DHCP Discovery: Intelligent exploration of connected devices on your bridge/interfaces, featuring smart Hostname resolution instead of randomized, unreadable MAC addresses. • Interfaces & Bandwidth Limits (Queues): Real-time visibility into port status, traffic flow, and bandwidth allocation, allowing you to monitor network load and active speed limits instantly. MyTik is built with a meticulously crafted Dark Mode to reduce eye strain during extended night-time monitoring sessions. The UX is structurally prioritized, ensuring that critical network indicators are always front and center when every second counts.
