Network Performance Monitoring

dive deep into critical network performance data network performance dashboard when filtering by node down / critical / warning , the node summary view in the monitor tab does not display the timestamp of when the alert occurred including a timestamp in this view would provide better visibility into the alert’s timing, helping teams differentiate between active and resolved issues this enhancement would minimize unnecessary warnings and improve operational efficiency the dashboard filter supports the following parameters data source – defaults to zabbix time range – defaults to last 30 minutes use the following procedure to navigate to the service access point you can access the network performance monitoring dashboard by navigating to dashboards → network management →network performance monitoring alternatively, you can use the search bar under the insights tab to find the dashboard network monitoring is a set of the following six dashboards network performance monitoring composition technical and non technical prerequisites technical prerequisites monitoring system (solarwinds, zabbix) deployed and accessible data streaming service and synapps setup with a topic network performance metrics for devices monitored by zabbix to be visualized in npm dashboards require below tags configured host tags with name “deviceclass” and value “network item tags, these tags are part of templates “kd interfaces by snmp” and “kd generic by snmp” note if these templates are not preconfigured for devices, complete the manual setup on each device before proceeding item keys

indicating the selected tab for the dashboard segment, for example inventory overview (monitoring inventory) the filter comprises two buttons filter control (grounding icon) add filter add a filter element apply to all\ apply the filter to the data set clear all clear all applied filters, restoring the default data set add filter (plus icon) add a filter element use the following procedure to specify the time range for the current data set by time range and other parameters select a time range the default time range is last 7 days if no changes have occurred in the default or selected date range, data visualizations will not populate to change the current date range, use the following procedure click the calendar icon the service displays the quick select dialog, presenting a range field that you can manually set and a list of preselected options from the units field dropdown menu, which defaults to 7 days ago , select the unit, days , weeks , months , years set the quantity by entering, incrementing, or decrementing the unit quantity for example, select months , then decrement 7 to 6 to change the value from 7 days ago to last 6 months click apply the service updates the data for the selected date range the default time range, 7 days ago , applies initially to all three dashboards; adjust each as needed click the plus icon the service presents the filter editor select a field from the select a field dropdown menu you can select from any supported field in the network device or operating system record select an operator from select operator field is equal to is not not equal to is one of some fields might have more than one value this operator specifies a specific value in such a field is not one of some fields might have more than one value this operator specifies that none of the values exist in such a field exists any device or operating system description that contains the specified field does not exist any device or operating system description that does not contain the specified field select a value from the select a value field optional add a an additional parameter by selecting boolean or or boolean and repeat steps 2 through 4 optional repeat step 5 click cancel to cancel the filter addition or add filter to add the filter you constructed you may add additional filters as required to adequately narrow your data set you can also edit a constructed filter as a domain specific language query by clicking the edit as query dsl link located at the far right of the add filter editor monitoring home docid\ zywjalpp6ceryt ntzndf acquire a
