WSFC Network Service

The WSFC Network service monitors the status (Up/Down/Other) of a network in a failover cluster.

This service is based on data returned from the Cluster – Nodes (PS) Automation Manager Policy (AMP), included with N-able - N-central. This AMP file is running the Get-ClusterNetwork PowerShell command to determine the status of the nodes.
