Network Monitoring System

Network monitoring for any corporate setup is indispensable. It is critical for any IT function that results in saving a great deal of money in network performance, employee productivity and infrastructure cost overruns. A network monitoring system monitors an internal network for detecting any kind of possible problems. It can find users to help resolve snail-paced webpage downloads, lost-in-space e-mail, questionable user activity and file delivery caused by overloaded, crashed servers, dicey network connections or other devices.

Network monitoring systems are usually different identities from intrusion detection systems or intrusion prevention systems. These other systems detect break-ins and prevent scurrilous activity from unauthorized users. An NMS lets you know how well the network is running during the course of ordinary operations; its focus isn't on security per se. It can be achieved by using specific software or a combination of plug-and-play hardware and software appliance solutions. By using different kinds of software, almost any kind of network can be monitored easily.
