Adding Nodes to the Database      Understanding Behavior Models

Working with Behavior Models

NerveCenter obtains data from SNMP agents running on managed nodes. To correlate and filter this data, NerveCenter uses general models of network and system behavior that define the various problems each type of managed resource might exhibit.

In this section, you first learn how a behavior model works. Then, you will enable two models and start monitoring some events on the nodes you've defined.

Description

Understanding Behavior Models


Defines the components that make up a behavior model.


How Behavior Models Operate


Describes how the components of behavior models work together to monitor network devices.


Importing the IfData_LogToFile Behavior Model


Explains how and why you import the IfData_LogToFile behavior model.


Enabling the IfData_LogToFile Behavior Model


Provides an overview of the IfData_LogToFile behavior model and describes how to turn the behavior model on.


Enabling the IfLoad Behavior Model


Provides an overview of the IfLoad behavior model and describes how to turn the behavior model on.
