Aviz Networks released Network Copilot 1.5.6, adding custom agent upload, lifecycle management, and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to let operations teams run site-specific automation and control access across Network Operations Center (NOC) and cloud environments.

Product update

The 1.5.6 release adds an agent upload and approval workflow that makes custom agents available to designated Power Users and governed by administrator-assigned roles. Administrators can create custom roles to limit which teams see or execute specific agents.

Technical breakdown

The platform pairs a neural language reasoning layer with symbolic execution to support multi-step troubleshooting while enforcing deterministic workflows for audits and compliance. Custom agents interact with external systems via Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and use the same data connectors and runbook interfaces as built-in agents.

Integration and data handling

The system queries existing telemetry and inventories in place rather than ingesting data into a new centralized store, performing schema reconciliation at query time. Connectors bring new tools online without full migration and adapt when source schemas or vendors change.

Operational impact

An example workflow shows the system retrieving past incidents, correlating logs, restarting a service, validating ARP entries, and updating the ticket as part of a single troubleshooting sequence. That sequence compresses steps an engineer would perform, records actions and notes, and reduces mean time to repair while preserving procedure details.

Platform updates

Release 1.5.6 also expands observability with enhanced ELK support for firewall and flow telemetry, includes platform hardening for stability and security, and streamlines installation and upgrade workflows. Full release notes and documentation are available in the vendor product documentation.

For enterprise IT and security leaders, the 1.5.6 update extends operational control through custom agents, RBAC, and integration improvements; this Blog Signals brief is a fact-based summary of the vendor blog.
