About the Realtime Monitor
The Realtime Monitor module in NSM enables you to monitor real-time status and
statistics about all the managed devices, VPN tunnels, NSRP clusters, IDP sensors and
IDP clusters in your network at a glance. You can use the Realtime Monitor to identify
problems, track security events, 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 devices in real time.
• Connection status—At the network level, you can monitor problems that could lead
to failed devices.
