Monitoring Router Performance
To monitor the performance of a C867VAE-K9 Cisco 4 Ports Modem/Wireless Router, you can use the following methods:
- Using the Cisco IOS Command Line Interface (CLI): You can use various show commands such as “show interface”, “show ip interface”, “show process”, “show memory” to monitor the status of interfaces, IP addresses, processes, and memory usage.
- Using Cisco Router and Security Device Manager (SDM): You can use the web-based SDM tool to monitor and troubleshoot the router’s performance. It provides a graphical user interface that allows you to view the router’s configuration, statistics, and logs.
- Using Cisco Prime Infrastructure: It is a network management software that allows you to monitor the performance of multiple Cisco devices, including routers. It provides detailed statistics, alerts, and reports on various aspects of router performance, such as CPU and memory usage, interface statistics, and security events.
- Using SNMP: You can use Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to monitor the performance of the router. You need to configure SNMP on the router and use an SNMP management tool to collect and analyze the performance data.
