Overview/AI Assistant

Network expertise,
in your
language.

Simba is the AI assistant built into Axon. Ask in plain language what's happening on your network. Simba calls real tools against your control plane, grounds every claim in live telemetry, and shows you exactly what it ran. No hallucinated stats. Real insights and solutions.

  • Hosted, fine-tuned models
  • Real tool calls, not summaries
  • Inference inside your VPN
  • Every claim auditable

Simba. Your AI buddy for everything happening on your network.
How Simba works

Three things make Simba different from a chatbot bolted onto a dashboard.

Hosted models

Fine-tuned for networks

We host our own LLMs, fine-tuned on real network operations workflows. They speak like an operator and offer executable advice.

Tool-calling

Real calls. Real data.

Simba doesn't summarize. It runs typed tools against your control plane (site queries, policy lookups, health checks), and the result is what it answers with.

Trust boundary

Stays inside your VPN

Inference and tool calls run inside the private Axon VPN. Telemetry never leaves the trust boundary to produce an answer. Every tool call is logged and inspectable.

Every answer is grounded

You can see the tool call, the parameters, and the raw result.

When Simba checks whether your Development site is healthy, it runs find_overloaded_switches(site: "Development") against the control plane. The JSON result is right there in the chat. The answer above it summarizes that JSON and leverages our proprietary models to offer valuable insight.

Ask about policy

"Is YouTube blocked? Where? On which sites?"

Simba walks your block-rules and rate-limit rules per site, returns the structured result, and answers with a plain summary. If the answer changes tomorrow because someone applied a new rule, the next query reflects it instantly. No cache, only live calls.

How tool-calls reach the control plane
Tools available to Simba

Typed, scoped, and auditable.

A representative slice (there are more, and we ship new ones regularly). Tools that mutate state (apply a policy, revoke a token) always require explicit operator confirmation; Simba can stage them, but never executes them silently.

Tool
Purpose
find_overloaded_switches
Returns switches exceeding CPU / mem / disk thresholds for a site.
list_policy_rules
Lists block-rules and rate-limit rules for a site or application.
site_health_check
Runs agent_heartbeat + DNS ICMP across enrolled switches.
top_applications
Returns the top N applications by bandwidth over a time window.
device_traffic_history
Per-device bandwidth, flows, and packet counts over time.
apply_policy
Stages a policy change. Never applied without explicit operator confirmation.
Where to start

Things you can ask on day one.

  • Prompt
    How is the Development site doing?
  • Prompt
    The Internet is slow at the Development site, what is causing it?
  • Prompt
    What traffic is blocked on the network?
  • Prompt
    Which switch is closest to its CPU limit?
The path of a question

From keystroke to answer.

  1. 01
    You ask. Plain language in the Simba pane.
  2. 02
    Simba picks tools. A hosted, fine-tuned model decides which control-plane tools to call and with what arguments.
  3. 03
    Control plane runs the tools. Live queries against your sites and devices, over the private Axon VPN.
  4. 04
    Simba answers. Plain-language summary, with the JSON result attached. Every claim is auditable.
