Monitor Cisco Catalyst switches
Track performance, availability, and configuration metrics for your Cisco Catalyst switches using SNMP.
-
Gain enhanced visibility into the devices. Monitor port utilization, CPU, memory, and interface metrics to ensure proactive troubleshooting.
-
Monitor hardware health. Track hardware health metrics, including temperature, fan status, and power supply monitoring.
-
Gain insight into topology. View data for STP, MAC address tables, and VLANs where supported.
To get accurate information, add the device for monitoring as a node using SNMP as the polling method. Review the node details view or view your switches on topology maps.
Supported metrics
Status and response time are polled via ICMP.
