What Switch Metric Are You Monitoring

[Robert Jackson]

I'm currently on Nagios Core 3.2.1 and I'm just starting to setup
monitoring of our network switches. Can someone share what switch
metrics they are recording (and find most useful). Just now, I'm only
registering PING and Uptime (through SMNP). Also how are you handling
parent/child relationships for the switches/ports etc? Basically if a
switch is down, then I would only want to receive and alert regarding
this and not anything else related to the port or device connected to
the port.


Regards,
Rab.
