Manage Network Monitors


Click 'Network Management' > 'Monitors'

  • A monitor is a script which tracks events on SNMP devices and takes specific actions if its conditions are met. For example, you can set up a monitor to alert you if a device is switched off for a certain length of time.
  • Network monitors are added to network profiles, which are in-turn applied to your SNMP devices.
  • Click ‘Network Management’ > ‘Profiles’ to view and create network profiles.
  • Click ‘Network Management’ > ‘Devices’ to view discovered SNMP devices.
  • Click ‘Network Management’ > ‘Discoveries’ to create and run scans to find SNMP devices on your network.
  • A single network monitor can be used in multiple network profiles. A single profile can include multiple monitors.
