Hello Folks,

Do you know whether ISE 2.x VM can be monitored by Nimsoft monitoring tool?

Hi Jina,

I'm not familiar with that product.  What is the underlying mechanism with which it monitors VMs?  ISE does have MIBs that can be polled for various system information.

Regards,

As Tim mentioned, ISE does support SNMP monitoring for standard system and interface MIBs, but if looking into monitoring of hypervisor, then that is transparent to ISE.  For example, if able to collect guest VM stats by sending queries to ESXi, ISE does not see those.   As such, we make no claims of support (or lack of support) for such use cases.
