Monitoring node network traffic

Top  Download  Previous  Next

Some switches and routers collect the information about the network traffic generated by each device. This information is available with RMON SNMP tables. nVision automates the process of monitoring the network traffic generated by a specific host.

Monitoring host network traffic

1.Open Host info window.

2.Navigate to the Port mapper tab. If such tab is not available, it means that there is no such information for this device. Please refer to the Monitoring switch ports topic for more information.

3.Select the grid row which lists the information for the host, which you would like to monitor. Select Monitor host network traffic from the context menu.
This will create two SNMP monitoring counters (for incoming and outgoing traffic). These counters will be available on the Performance counters tab.
