Aviz Network Copilot R2.0.0: One Copilot for Your Network and AI Infrastructure
Connected to your tools, verified at every step, and secured by evidence-based audits
October 6, 2026
Network Copilot ™
Release 2.0.0 takes Network Copilot beyond the network. Operators can now operate AI infrastructure by chat, connect the monitoring and ticketing tools they already use, see how every answer was produced, speak to Copilot in their own language, and audit device security with evidence for every verdict. Each feature below is described briefly; detailed how-to steps will follow in separate feature blogs.

NVIDIA Connectors
Dynamo, DCGM, and BCM
Connectors for Nvidia Dynamo, DCGM, and BCM bring inference, GPU, and cluster data into the same chat as the network.
Troubleshooting and Tenant Operations
from a slow endpoint to a root cause
A troubleshooting agent finds the layer at fault and recommends an action, while Fabric & Tenant Operations run ONES-FM tasks by chat with confirmation before any change.
Prometheus
metrics in plain language
Ask for metrics in plain words and Copilot builds the query and the chart, with no PromQL needed.
Token Savings
lower LLM cost
Token Compression reduces the context sent to the model, and the Token Savings tab shows the savings for each LLM.

Agent Trace & Sources
see how every answer was produced
See the agents, tools, and sources behind any response, with status and duration, so answers can be verified.
Activity Log and Audit Logging
a searchable evidence trail
Admins can search agent, LLM, and tool activity, export it as CSV, JSON, or NDJSON, and forward it to a SIEM.
Activity Log with search, filters, and export
LLM Management
control over the models NCP uses
Set a default LLM, edit one, add one without authentication, and choose the reasoning effort.
Experience: Speak, Listen, and Work in Your Language

Platform, Support and Lifecycle
SDK, support model, and fixes
NCP SDK v1.4.0 adds agent memory, handoffs, and skills, the NCP Support Model adds a SONiC support assistant, and the release includes platform-wide fixes.
Security Audit: Evidence-Based, Customizable, Comparable
Custom template · Evidence · CSV / XLS · IOS-XE / IOS-XR · ONES FM · Cache comparison
Device configuration is checked against best practice and every finding maps to a NIST SP 800-53 control, so compliance is provable.
Security Audit catalog at a glance
New in R2.0.0: 59 checks with control IDs and rationale; your own checklist as a custom template; evidence behind every verdict; CSV and Excel export; Cisco IOS-XE and IOS-XR; SONiC through the ONES FM Controller; and comparison against the last saved report.
Fullscreen Security Audit report with severity, requirement, status, and evidence
| Why it matters: auditors get a control ID, a severity, evidence, and a trend against the last run without exporting to a spreadsheet first. |
Conclusion
R2.0.0 extends Network Copilot into GPU and AI infrastructure, plugs into the tools teams already run, and shows its work through Agent Trace, the Activity Log, and audit evidence.
