Network management or monitoring?
Scope of the question:
For my company (with a very large network) I'm writing a research to develop a Network Monitoring capacity for a part of the network.
Previous phrase was provided by my superiors and in my opinion contains some issues.
First of all, I think that Network Monitoring is not the correct term. I guess it should be Network Management (Containing, performance, configuration netflow stats and alerting).
Secondary, the 'part of the network' is not correct approach, as it creates yet another tool in the company. Shouldn't it be better that you have a one-tool-fits all approach?
The question: 'several - sorry :-)'
Why these questions: Just learning and therefore improving my personal knowledge !
I thank you in advance for answering this as it would consume a bit of your precious time.
Sincerely,
Bart

Hi Mark,
First of all , thank you.
Also I'm looking at this from a global enterprise perspectif.
Do you still use the on-off approach of a device?
What do you mean by this can you elaborate --> green on, red = down :-) 'I know…, but for many this is the current approach.
I also have to concur with the 'one' solution approach is not a good option. As I noticed that the 'results' differ when testing with different vendors. (and I will take this in my conclusion)
Bart.
