SolarWinds Network Device Monitor

Monitor Your Network Devices With Ease Using Solarwinds Network Device Monitor

Using network devices in organizations has become necessary as they allow seamless data transmission, communication, and collaboration between departments. Network devices include routers, switches, servers, and other equipment essential to network operations. These devices need constant monitoring to ensure they function correctly and efficiently. That is where device monitoring comes in. Device monitoring refers to the continuous process of tracking and analyzing the performance of network devices. That aims to identify and resolve issues before they escalate and affect the entire network. Device monitoring involves using software tools that can collect data and generate reports, providing network administrators with insights into the status of network devices.

SolarWinds offers a range of software tools for network monitoring, including the SolarWinds Network Monitor. The SolarWinds Network Monitor is a device monitor that enables network administrators to monitor the performance of network devices, such as routers, switches, servers, and other equipment, in real time. The SolarWinds Network Monitor is a comprehensive tool that provides a complete view of the network infrastructure. This tool allows network administrators to monitor the status of network devices, such as CPU usage, memory usage, network bandwidth, and other parameters. The SolarWinds Network Monitor also alerts and notifications when network devices experience performance issues, enabling network administrators to take immediate action.

Simplify Network Device Monitoring With Solarwinds Network Device Monitor

SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor (NPM) is designed to give hardware health overviews for your monitored devices. Which is vital for controlling servers, switches, routers, and other critical infrastructure life cycles. Using network device monitoring software, you can rapidly check the current node count, filter by device status (Up, Warning, Critical, and Undefined), and drill down to locate unavailable or offline nodes. NPM also lets you compare current performance to previous data, which can help you spot problems early.

You must first discover network devices before you can begin monitoring. NPM comes with an SNMP-based device scanner that performs network discovery and builds a thorough inventory regularly. You may use this information to generate a network topology map that will update automatically as new devices are added to your network. The dynamic topology map can also be used to visually scan troubled devices and rapidly dive down for more information.
