Network Monitoring

Reduce downtime in your network and discover hidden issues impacting the bandwidth to ensure maximum productivity for your users.

Comprehensive, easy-to-use network monitoring

An easy to set-up holistic network monitoring software

Your whole business depends on an efficiently-functioning network infrastructure. However, even networks in small companies can get hugely complicated over time and it is easy to lose the overview and have difficulty keeping an eye on everything. A good network monitoring software can help to handle these issues.

TDWS GMS as a network monitoring tool can help you quickly monitor your entire network and it doesn’t cover only the major devices, but also a broad range of vendors — even those outside the mainstream. And this all without complicated configurations and endless alarms. With a few clicks, you will be able with this network monitoring tool to monitor all your network devices, e.g.:

Switches & Routers

Monitor packet rates, error rates, the state and bandwidth of ports, error rates, CPU utilization, fans, power supply, temperature and more. Supported devices include, e.g. Alcatel-Lucent, Cisco, Brocade, Dell, Enterasys, Extreme Networks, Huawei, Intel, Juniper, TP-Link.

Wireless

Also monitor your wireless networks, e.g. state of access points, signal strength and connected devices for Aerohive, Aruba Networks, CBL, MikroTik, Netgear, Fritz!Box, etc., devices.

Firewalls

Ensure the security of your network by monitoring the health, VPN tunnel state, high availability state and more of your BlueCat, Checkpoint, F5, FireEye, FortiGate, IBM, Palo Alto Networks, etc., devices.

Ultra efficient network monitoring

TDWS GMS uses a rules-based concept for configuring your monitoring. This becomes especially powerful when monitoring a large number of similar devices, in contrast to a template-based approach, in which you need to configure each ‘sensor’.

With just a couple of rules you can configure your entire network monitoring, e.g. monitoring only the error rate for access ports. Routers and switches can have several hundred SNMP messages – it is important to monitor only what really matters. TDWS GMS knows what data matters, and filters the data for you so that you get to see the data you actually need in your network monitoring.

For small networks and ISPs

TDWS GMS comes with more than 1,800 preconfigured checks and it is highly likely that it can monitor any switch, router or firewall you may have. You can monitor the network interfaces of low-end switches with just a couple of ports. But you can also monitor huge core switches with several hundred ports or the devices powering the internet — monitor BGP sessions, routing engines, fans, memory, file systems and more for your BGP routers.

Understanding switch port usage

Have you ever stood in front of a switch and wondered which ports are actually being used, and which not, or that someone hasn’t simply removed a cable? Have you ever unplugged your CEO from the internet because the port looked as if it was not in use, but he was in fact just on a business trip?

TDWS GMS combines real-time data and historic data to understand which of a switch’s ports are in use. With the switch port statistics feature, you can see immediately which port is up/down/free, the speed, whether it is currently being used, and the last time when it was in use.

VPN and remote workplace monitoring

Avoid capacity bottlenecks, bandwidth and performance issues, or configuration errors from slowing down your VPN and remote workplace architecture. This is the only way to ensure that your employees can easily access the tools and applications they need from home or wherever they work.

With TDWS GMS as your network monitoring software you are able to monitor the status and the number of your active VPN tunnels and the number of bytes being transferred via VPN, so that you can detect problems early and guarantee secure remote access to your company infrastructure at any time.

Prevent your VPN gateway from becoming a bottleneck in your remote architecture by easily monitoring device CPU usage with TDWS GMS. In this way TDWS GMS helps you to react to possible bottlenecks at an early stage.

With remote workplaces it is useful to monitor several parameters simultaneously to ensure smooth operation. Here, too, you should always keep an eye on the performance utilization of your gateway. TDWS GMS also helps you to keep an eye on the resource capacities of your virtual platform. Only if sufficient CPU, RAM or Storage IO are available, can a smooth operation and a possible scaling of the virtual workstations be guaranteed.
