How Frequently Should I Monitor?
The general practice is to monitor critical devices more frequently than non-critical devices.
Given below are the recommended monitoring intervals for small and medium-sized networks (up to 1000 devices):
- Routers and Critical Servers: 5 minutes
- Switches, Hubs and Printers: 10 - 20 minutes
- Critical Services like Exchange, Active Directory: 10 - 20 minutes
- Desktops
and Workstations: We recommend turn off monitoring or monitor less frequently [30 minutes once], for desktops and
workstations to reduce the amount of network traffic generated by
the Probe.
