SNMP

VMware’s vRealize Operations is an excellent monitoring, analytics, and self-driving IT operations platform that supports numerous applications and infrastructure systems out of the box. Management packs are available from both VMware and third-parties to extend these out of the box capabilities to a wide variety of additional applications and infrastructure systems. Unfortunately, management packs aren’t available for every hardware device that you might need to monitor. In these situations, monitoring via SNMP might be your only choice.
