What is network monitoring?

Network Monitoring - Site24x7

Network monitoring is a vital IT process that tracks network components and endpoints and provides fault, performance, and traffic monitoring. It monitors critical network issues, provides fault detection, and monitors the health of various network elements from the device level to the protocol and interface levels.

Network monitoring systems help track network operations. They help monitor traffic, bandwidth utilization, and other metrics using performance counters. Further, examining the faults in the health and performance of network interfaces assists in managing various network resources, both on-site and remote. Network monitoring tools help IT admins reduce the mean time to repair (MTTR) to solve real-time network performance issues with instant alerting and data in the form of tables, charts, graphs, dashboards, and reports.

Why are network monitoring tools important?

Businesses rely on networks, whether they're on-premises or remote. Since managing organizational networks can become difficult, network monitoring tools are crucial to:

  • Ensure continuous network uptime for uninterrupted business operations.
  • Gain performance insights on every network device and interface, along with their hierarchy.
  • Analyze the device and interface level performance using metrics.
  • Identify threats proactively.
  • Generate alerts and avert downtime.

Site24x7 is a cloud-based network monitoring tool that supports multiple vendors and provides real-time monitoring of your network. It helps reduce network outages and ensures high availability through uninterrupted monitoring. These are the reasons why many of our customers consider Site24x7 the best network monitoring tool.

Cloud-based Network Monitoring

How does the Site24x7 network monitoring tool work?

Site24x7 Network Monitoring is an agentless, SaaS network monitoring system that collects data from your network using an On-Premise Poller. This helps monitor your internal and external networks. The Site24x7 network monitoring tool is SNMP based. You can either specify an IP range or use classless inter-domain routing (CIDR) to discover the devices in your network. You can mention discovery rules and device and interface filters, which help to fine-tune the discovery. Once added, the On-Premise Poller starts to fetch data like traffic, bandwidth, packets, error, discards, and other performance data from your devices.

You can configure threshold limits for all the key performance metrics at the device and interface level so that you can take corrective measures on any breach and keep the network performance under control using our cloud network monitoring tool.
