Product Description


A comprehensive guide for designing and implementing effective strategies for network performance and management

• Design and implement performance and fault monitoring that will measure and report the effectiveness of your Cisco network
• Generate reports and alerts that provide network information and status
• Learn to navigate Cisco's documentation and MIBs to determine which elements of a specific technology you should manage
• Study the key aspects of systems and VLAN management of Cisco devices
• Discover best practices and related configurations for implementing network management on Cisco routers and switches

Performance and Fault Management is a comprehensive guide to designing and implementing effective strategies for monitoring performance levels and correctng problems in Cisco networks. It provides an overview of router and LAN switch operations to help you understand how to manage such devices, as well as guidance on the essential MIBs, traps, syslog messages, and show commands for managing Cisco routers and switches.

Written by a team of network management experts, this book details how to implement the practice of network management through documentation, process reviews, and network baselining. It explains various management commands, data, protocols, and resources in Cisco routers and switches. With this book, you will discover how to achieve optimum performance and fault management results on your Cisco network.

Reader Reviews
I like the book for the following reasons and many more: -covers both routers & switches -covers the show commands as well as the equivalent SNMP objects -tells me the inside information (e.g.) Which ver of IOS started supporting sub-interfaces, IOS hidden commands -tells me how I can leverage applications like HpOV NNM, MRTG etc And it tells all this and more in a simple language (e.g.) The chapter on monitoring CPU & Memory resources explains lucidly how one can be proactive about monitoring these 2 key elements. The chapter on VLAN management is another good example. One of the topics it covers is about monitoring spanning tree topology changes, how you can use community string indexing to get vlan information for each individual vlan
