Description
How Can I Monitor My Network?
The first step in getting started with your network monitoring is to identify which devices need to be monitored. You'll also want to decide on what performance metrics you'll be measuring.
Here are some baseline metrics you'll want to monitor:
Bandwidth usage: You'll want your network to be sending as much data as it can without being overloaded. Your network monitoring tool can identify how much bandwidth is typically used versus how much is currently being used.
Throughput: This measures the percentage of data packets that are actually being sent.
Latency: This is the time it takes between requesting data and receiving that data. Performance issues can be almost too small to recognize, so it's important to have a monitoring tool in place.
Packet loss: This is the number of data packets that are lost during data transmissions.
Retransmission: This is a measure of how often data packets are lost and need to be retransmitted to complete a request for data.
Network availability/Uptime: This lets you know if your network is currently available. Your network monitoring tools can alert you when the network goes down, and how often.
Connectivity: You'll want to make sure your network connection is operating at top performance at all times.
3 Benefits of Network Monitoring
Continuous monitoring of your network helps you to troubleshoot not just hard failures but slowdowns as well. Metrics such as throughput, latency, packet reordering, and jitters can be used to measure your network's health.
Troubleshooting issues early ensures business continuity and fewer or no downtimes, including network monitoring benefits like:
1. Identifying Issues Anywhere in the Network
Network monitoring and assessment is a way to quickly locate a problem in the network. Monitoring your network's performance can show you the cause and source of a network problem, where and when it occurred. It can also tell you who needs to fix it. When you actively monitor your network, you can detect any performance changes that could be problematic to users before they occur.
2. Better Use of IT Resources
IT teams are feeling more burnt out as a result of the pandemic. With 72% of IT professionals having taken on new responsibilities since the outset of the pandemic, a network outage could be a productivity killer. For example, an under-resourced IT manager would be required to divert attention from one business critical project to another with little notice or preparation.
The tools in network monitoring systems reduce manual work for IT teams. This gives back valuable time to an IT team to instead allocate to more critical projects.
3. Providing Historical and Baseline Data
With the availability of baseline data, network monitoring tools can continually and automatically compare data. In case of performance degradation, an alert is sent to you, and you can immediately solve the problem. Historical data gives you a comparison point to determine optimal network performance or identify poor performance. It enables you to troubleshoot network problems of past events.
