Cisco Network Monitoring


Network monitoring toolset that monitors the per­formance and availability of your heterogeneous network - keeping close watch on your Cisco Network Elements, Windows® Systems, Linux®/UNIX® Servers, and other network devices such as firewalls and network printers. If an outage is detected, or a threshold is crossed, the appropriate staff members can be alerted with e-mail or pager-based notifications. Prob­lems can then be corrected before an outage occurs, increasing up-time and enhancing your com­pany’s productivity. Escalation groups can also be configured, ensuring that problems receive prompt attention.
