FAI Fleet Management

Learn how to use the Fleet Management page to view and manage all Wavelets and their corresponding Sites in one centralized interface.

Introduction

The Fleet Management page provides all users with a centralized and customizable view of the Wavelets and Sites they have access to within the FAI system. Designed for operational efficiency and system-wide visibility, this tool empowers users to monitor device health, access detailed site information, perform bulk actions, and export structured data for offline analysis.

With flexible layout options, powerful filtering capabilities, and a comprehensive Actions menu, Fleet Management simplifies daily oversight, troubleshooting, and administrative tasks—making it easier than ever to manage your deployed infrastructure at scale.
