With SolarWinds NPM you start with a top-level network map and drill down through the red dots to discover more about the symptoms. I should not say this, but the greatest fun for a techie is when something is wrong, but you can fix it easily. Once the NPM v11 setup is complete then it’s time to enjoy the monitoring. I loved being able to drag and drop routers onto my network maps, and straight away see the connections to other devices and check their status instantly.
