The Realtime Monitor module in Network and Security Manager (NSM) enables you to
monitor real-time status and statistics about all the managed devices in your network
at a glance. Features of Realtime Monitor enabled for M-series and MX-series include
viewing device status, viewing monitor alarm status, and setting the polling interval for
device alarm status. You can use the Realtime Monitor to identify problems and discover
trends across multiple geographic regions and functional areas from a central
management location.
The Realtime Monitor can also help you quickly identify potential device, network, and
system-level problems, such as:
Configuration status—At the device level, you can monitor the changing status of one
or more security devices in real time.
Connection status—At the network level, you can monitor problems that could lead
to failed devices.
The Realtime Monitor does the work of a management expert by first gathering
information about specific processes and network activity, then color-coding each event
to organize problems.
