Network Device Monitoring

Datadog Network Device Monitoring seamlessly consolidates monitoring and troubleshooting of routers, firewalls, switches, load balancers, and other network devices. With full support for SNMP, Netflow, syslog, and other data formats and sources, Datadog provides full visibility across your on-prem network equipment.

View stats on any interface, on any device, on any network

Automatically discover and collect metrics on your network from any device, including those from Cisco, Palo Alto, Dell, F5, Juniper, and other leading brands
Monitor even the largest environments with a highly scalable and lightweight agent
Take inventory with a complete list of all your network hardware

Main NDM screen showing devices that are reachable / unreachable, graphs, and device lists. Various filters/facets can be enabled using either the left side controls or the search bar.

Quickly expose performance with next-level tooling

Search for devices and then drill down to view the performance of specific interfaces with a single click
Create custom dashboards with drag-and-drop widgets to help you evaluate device performance at a glance
Filter device data according to helpful parameters, such as location

Per-device drill down screen with integrated tabs for Key Metrics, Interfaces, Traps, and Flows

Get full visibility into traffic flows for troubleshooting and capacity planning

Collect network flow data in common formats and standards including Netflow, IPFIX, sFlow, and J-Flow
Filter network flow data by key information including volume, IP address, protocol, TCP/UDP source/destination port, and other out-of-the-box and custom tags
Easily surface top talkers and rates of TCP flags such as RST, SYN, ACK, PSF, FIN, and URG
