Network monitoring for the boxes everything else runs through
When a firewall runs out of memory or a router reboots, every service behind it looks down at once. StatusEagle watches the devices themselves, over ICMP and SNMP, in the same dashboard as the websites and APIs they carry.
Example check · demo data
Network monitoring checks the health of network devices such as routers, switches and firewalls, typically using ICMP ping for reachability and SNMP to read metrics like CPU, memory and uptime.
What’s supported
| Details | Protocols | Metrics | Vendors | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ICMP ping; SNMP v1, v2c and v3 | ||||
| CPU, memory, device uptime | ||||
| Cisco, Juniper, MikroTik, Fortinet, and generic SNMP devices |
Why put devices next to your websites
Most network tools live in a separate console that only the network person opens. When an incident starts, the web team sees red monitors and the answer sits on another screen. Watching the device alongside the services behind it makes cause and effect obvious: the firewall’s memory climbs to 98%, then three websites go down.
Setting up SNMP safely
Device uptime is a hidden signal
A device whose uptime counter resets unexpectedly has rebooted, maybe from a crash, a power issue or someone’s change. Even if it came back in two minutes, you want to know why.
