Network Monitoring

The topic I have chosen is network monitoring. Networks have primarily been evolving from flat network whereby there had been a handful of elements. In the past, everything was connected to a multifaceted design where there were a lot more technologies, such wireless, and cloud. With this evolution, a factor that has been constant is the need for network monitoring. Usually, network monitoring allows individuals to understand what is going on in their network, LAN, WAN, MPLS, OR VoIP as well as the state of other network connections(Zaalouk et al., 2014)

Before analyzing what network monitoring is, it is very important to understand what networking is in general. We should as well understand the essentials on Windows® systems which is a major OS used in enterprises worldwide. Primarily, understanding the essentials of networking elements which make up computer networks will help in managing of network and monitoring. In achieving network monitoring, it is important to use different software as well as combining of plug and play hardware and software appliance solutions. Usually, every kind of network can be monitored. An admin can monitor a device on a different operating system with multitude of functions.

In most cases, the system helps an admin to configure different activities as well as performance metrics, which helps in producing results that helps to address sundry needs, such as understanding internals security threats, and performance metrics. Through that you can be able to improve on the metrics and address the internal security threats. Usually, been able to know what to monitor on your computer network becomes an important aspect. It essential to ensure that corporate network topology map is up to date.        The map primarily ensures the different networks to be monitored have been primarily configured. It is important to as well understand the kind of servers that are running in different applications as well as the operating systems in which the servers are running. The number of desktops as well as the remote devices that will have access for each network is important for effective monitoring(Chowdhury et al., 2014)

Generally, thework to be done in this area willsinclude setting of the network, understanding the monitoring techniques and protocols, and monitoring the network. Primarily, it is very crucial to understand the different techniques that are used by networks as well as admins.This primarily allows an individual to monitor their networks successfully, as well as the systems and servers. Usually, any information based on the network is collected in order to ensure that there is better management and that the network has been controlled. Primarily, identifying any network issues and resolving them is very important concern. This usually ensures that there is high performance of network. Understanding the different techniques that are available for network monitoring is also a major concern. The techniques help in collecting of data that helps in monitoring of the network. The various techniques available are ping, syslog, as well as simple management protocol.

There will be budget requirements needed in this case as setting of the network will need a qualified person who has been dealing with network setting in the past. The individual setting up the network as well as monitoring the network should ensure that there are no security concerns in the network. Also, in case there maybe requirement of more desktops, it is important to have enough budgets and ensure they have all been monitored. Through that, network monitoring will be achieved successfully (Zaalouk et al., 2014)
