The scenario

You need to check something across your entire network — not one device at a time. Opening each session manually doesn’t scale.

iPilot summarizing results across many devices

Example Prompts

“Check whether VLAN 264 is in use across all access switches and core routers.”
“Tell me which devices already use VLAN 264 and which ones are free to reuse.”
“Find every offline or degraded access device and summarize the likely fault domain.”

You don’t need to name a device — just ask a fleet-wide question. iPilot automatically detects the intent and scales the operation:

iPilot identifies which devices are relevant to your question.
It spawns one sub-agent per device, running checks in parallel batches.
Each sub-agent runs the appropriate read-only command for that device’s vendor.
Results are aggregated into a single summarized report — no need to open each session yourself.

Fleet-wide checks run in parallel batches, so a query across dozens of devices completes in roughly the same time as checking a handful individually.

Question Type	Example
Configuration audit	“Which devices still use the old DNS server?”
Health sweep	“Find every offline or degraded device right now.”
Capacity planning	“Which VLANs are free to reuse across the access layer?”
Security check	“Do any devices still allow Telnet management access?”
