What is Network Management?Network Management Goals

•The Goals:– Ensure that users of a network

receive information technology services with the quality of service they expect.

– Ensure the strategic and tactical planning of the engineering, operations, and maintenance of a network and its services.

– Help network engineers manage the complexity of a data network and ensure that data can go across the network with maximum efficiency and transparency.

– Prepare for disaster recovery.

CiscoWorks LMS 3.1 ApplicationsInternetwork Performance Monitor

– Use synthetic tests to measure protocol response times and monitor device availability.

• ICMP echo test• TCP connect test• DNS resolution test• DHCP test• HTTP response test• Voice, video jitter test• And more

– Isolate delays by viewing latency hop-by-hop.

– Identify performance trends using historical data.

CiscoWorks LMS 3.1 ApplicationsDevice Fault Manager

– Proactively monitor Cisco devices for faults:

• Environmental (temperature, voltage, power supply)

• Connectivity• Processor, memory

utilization, etc.• Interface utilization,

errors, down– Generate notifications

for alerts and events.– Search 31 days of fault

history.
