New Feature
Enhanced SNMP Template Customization
You can now select which properties/columns you want to monitor when applying an SNMP template. This improvement gives you more control and flexibility in monitoring, allowing you to exclude specific properties/columns that you don’t need to track.
Network Traffic Monitoring Configuration
1. In the "Manage Pre-Configured Template" window, under "Network Traffic (Extended)," choose the network properties you want to monitor.
2. Ensure "Operational Status" and "Speed" are selected to track the device's activity level and data transfer rate.
3. Select "Inbound Traffic" and "Outbound Traffic" to monitor data flowing into and out of the network.
4. Opt to track errors by selecting "Inbound Errors /s" and "Outbound Errors /s" for error management.
5. Uncheck any properties you do not wish to monitor.
6. After configuring your selections, click "Apply" to save the changes.
This enhancement greatly improves your ability to customize and streamline the monitoring process. By focusing on the most important metrics, you can proactively monitor your network and quickly address critical issues with precision and speed.
