Configure SolarWinds VNQM

VNQM monitors Network Service Assurance operations and VoIP infrastructure. Configuring VNQM means adding your devices to VNQM, defining what you are going to monitor, and how often you want to poll data from your devices.

You can configure VNQM in the SolarWinds Platform Web Console.

To start VNQM:

  1. Log in to your VoIP and Network Quality Manager server.
  2. Start the SolarWinds Platform Web Console in the SolarWinds Platform program folder.
  3. Click My Dashboards > VoIP & Network Quality.

After establishing your basic VoIP infrastructure and adding Network Service Assurance operations, you can change your settings any time to further customize VoIP and Network Quality Manager for your network. For example, you can add Network Service Assurance devices, designate paths, and configure polling options. VoIP and Network Quality Manager uses a wizard-based application to guide you through the process of configuration.

The following sections provide detailed instructions for configuring the various aspects of VoIP and Network Quality Manager for your network.
