Monitoring network performance is a key capability of SolarWinds Observability Self-Hosted (formerly Hybrid Cloud Observability) and is available in the Essentials edition. Network Performance Monitor (NPM) is also available in a standalone module.

Monitor switch stacks

Switch stacks connect multiple physical switches to act as a logical unit to simplify setup and monitoring. Switches are linked using special ports or high-sped links for redundancy and fast communication.

Monitor the stack health, the stack master, port status, bandwidth utilization, or firmware updates.

Supported devices include Cisco SwitchStacks.
