cisco router network devices monitoring

What is a Cisco Router?

A Cisco router is a device manufactured by Cisco Systems. These routers are pivotal in facilitating connectivity and data communication within and between networks. They are capable of serving both Wide Area Networks (WANs) and Local Area Networks (LANs), handling data transfer tasks, and directing traffic along the most efficient paths.

Their versatility supports various network sizes, from small businesses to large enterprises. They support a range of applications, from basic internet sharing to complex network layer switching and voice services.

How to monitor Cisco Routers?

ServicePilot makes it very easy to monitor Cisco routers. Simply configure the SNMP interface of the Cisco router. Then use the ServicePilot web interface to add a resource from the ServicePilot network-cisco-router package.

The monitoring statistics gathered in this way include:

• System: CPU and Memory Usage, Memory and Buffer creation failure
• Interfaces: Traffic and Load In/Out, errors or discard packets (will be automatically discovered)
• Environment: Fans, Temperature sensors and Power Supplies (will be automatically discovered)
• Routing Protocols: OSPF, BGP or VRF informations

How to install a cisco-router resource?

1. Use your ServicePilot OnPremise installation or a SaaS account.
2. Add a new cisco-router resource via the web interface (/prmviews or /prmresources) or via API (/prmpackages page), the default ServicePilot agent or another agent will be provisioned automatically.

Details of the cisco-router package are located in the /prmpackages page of the software.
