Switch Monitoring

Switches are the backbone of your LAN. Any problem in your switches affects a large proportion of your LAN users. Implementing a proactive switch monitoring system helps you detect problems early and avoid potential problems.

Sandiy IOS Technology switch monitoring functionality automatically discovers switches in your network and places them on a special switch map. All the switch ports are also discovered and intuitively placed on the map.

Using Sandiy IOS Technology's switch monitoring capability, operators can gain visibility into the status and availability of switch ports. Sandiy IOS Technology actively monitors switch ports and quickly notifies operators whenever a switch port or the switch goes down. Operators can setup Sandiy IOS Technology to monitor only critical ports, an industry best practice for Switch monitoring, that prevents unnecessary alarms from being generated. Sandiy IOS Technology also offers visibility into spanning tree status showing which ports are blocked and which ones are forwarding.

Sandiy IOS Technology Switch Monitoring features

Switch and Switch Ports availability monitoring

With Sandiy IOS Technology you can create business views (maps) to graphically visualize your entire LAN. Sandiy IOS Technology can automatically send alerts when a link goes down.

Sandiy IOS Technology's reporting functionality also provides you with a detailed availability report of your Switches and Switch Ports. You can use these reports to ensure that your SLAs are being met.

Port-wise Traffic Monitoring

Sandiy IOS Technology helps you monitor and troubleshoot Switch Ports for traffic, utilization, errors and Service Level Agreement (SLA) verification. By presenting accurate information on port traffic and utilization Sandiy IOS Technology helps you identify top talkers on the LAN.
  • Monitor Port utilization and traffic with threshold alerts.
  • Detect potential BroadCast Storms and proactively prevent the same.
  • Identify highly utilized and under-utilized ports.
  • Get alerted when a port start discarding packets

Switch Monitoring Tools

Real Time Switch Monitoring Tools such as Switch Port Mapper and STP Tool are bundled with Sandiy IOS Technology.

Switch Port Mapper

The Switch Port Mapper is an useful utility that is embedded in Sandiy IOS Technology. It helps you to quickly find out the list of devices connected to the switch ports.

STP Tool

Spanning Tree Protocol details for each port can be viewed using the STP Tool. TThis gives you valuable information about the spanning tree state of each port such as which ports are blocking and which ports are forwarding etc.
