Monitoring Cisco Industrial Ethernet 4000 with MetricFire

To integrate Cisco Industrial Ethernet 4000 with MetricFire, please sign up for a free 14 day trial. We want to fully understand your requirements and monitoring goals, so we can advise you on how to obtain better visibility into your infrastructure. Please book a demo with us so we can show you how quick and easy it is to get meaningful data into your MetricFire account, and use that data to build custom dashboards and alerts.

MetricFire is a monitoring and analytics platform that helps businesses keep an eye on their critical systems and applications. One of the platforms it integrates with is the Cisco Industrial Ethernet (IE) 4000 switch.

The IE 4000 is a rugged, compact switch designed for industrial settings. It's ideal for environments where extreme temperatures, dust, and vibration are common. With MetricFire, users can gain insights into their IE 4000 switch performance, monitor and alert on critical system metrics, and detect and diagnose issues in real-time.

You can easily get insights from your Cisco devices with the Telegraf plugin by downloading a custom telegraf config in your Hosted Graphite account if you navigate to Agents => Telegraf. Then install telegraf using the steps outlined in our docs, and replace the default config with the custom config at the path that telegraf is installed at.

MetricFire provides a pre-built integration with the Cisco IE 4000 switch, which allows users to collect and monitor network data in real-time. The integration leverages SNMP, which is supported by the IE 4000, to collect metrics such as network traffic, device temperature, CPU utilization, and memory usage. These metrics can then be displayed on customizable dashboards and configured to trigger alerts when thresholds are breached.

One of the key benefits of using MetricFire to monitor the Cisco IE 4000 switch is that it provides a centralized view of all network performance data. This allows users to quickly identify issues and troubleshoot them before they become critical. Additionally, MetricFire provides historical data, which can be used for trend analysis and capacity planning.

MetricFire's integration with the Cisco IE 4000 switch provides real-time monitoring and alerting, centralized visibility, and historical data. This allows businesses to proactively manage their critical network infrastructure and ensure high availability and performance.

MetricFire is a full-scale platform that provides infrastructure, system, and application monitoring using a suite of open-source tools. We will aggregate and store your data as time series metrics, which can be used to build custom dashboards and alerts. MetricFire takes away the burden of self-hosting your own monitoring solution, allowing you more time and freedom to work on your most important tasks.

MetricFire offers a complete ecosystem of end-to-end infrastructure monitoring, comprised of open-source Graphite and Grafana. MetricFire handles the aggregation, storage, and backups of your data, and offers alerting, team features, and API's for easy management of your monitoring environment. You can send server metrics using one of our agents, custom metrics from within your application code, and integration metrics from a variety of popular 3rd party services that we integrate with like Heroku, AWS, Azure, GCP, and many more!

Our Hosted Graphite product has improved upon standard Graphite to add data dimensionality, optimized storage, and offers additional tools and features that provide customers with a robust and well-rounded monitoring solution.
