Network Monitoring Tools and Troubleshooting with TotalView
What is Network Monitoring?
There’s a reason why many IT professionals charged with keeping their networks up and running find network troubleshooting challenging and tedious. It’s often because they’re using the wrong tools.
After all, network monitoring is about more than just ensuring things are working — it’s ensuring that your networking is working optimally and to its fullest potential.
To this end, network performance monitoring (NPM) involves collecting data from a variety of sources to gain a full perspective on network health and availability. Once you have this information, you’ll be able to quickly spot problems as they arise, diagnose underlying issues, deploy solutions, and make sure the network never misses a beat.
Most IT professionals turn their attention to monitoring software. Unfortunately, basic network monitoring tools usually aren’t much help in solving networking issues. They may indicate that something is wrong but give you no guidance on where the problem lies, or how to fix it. Worse, they may claim that everything is working fine even when the user experience indicates otherwise. This often creates a serious disconnect between your network monitoring tools and the reality your users are facing
Advanced Network Monitoring Tools
Fortunately, PathSolutions TotalView will help you diagnose issues and allow you to get to the root cause so that you can truly fix them without spending hours, weeks, or even months doing so.
Network Monitoring Systems (NMS)
Our full network monitoring system provides metrics and logs for every corner of your network. Automated root-cause troubleshooting means you can validate a poor user experience and solve the identified issue quickly — all thanks to the right information and an accurate interpretation of the issue.
Network Performance Monitoring Diagnostics (NPMD)
TotalView allows you to go broader and deeper than other basic monitoring tools that aim to uncover networking issues. Our software gives you real-time visibility into the entire infrastructure, including packet, flow, and device monitoring. This allows you to see performance data and identify bottlenecks that are preventing the network from operating as it should. Once issues are taken care of, you’ll have tons of data at your fingertips to analyze metrics and pinpoint specific areas for optimization.
Ultimately, the goal is to help you detect and resolve your network issues proactively: before they cause downtime or a loss of productivity.
