Before we dive into the hardware and code, let's define the term. prtg network monitor digiboy
Since "DigiBoy" is not an official Paessler product, the community uses it to describe a single-purpose monitoring appliance. Imagine a small device—roughly the size of a smartphone or a retro game console—sitting on your desk or mounted in your server rack.
