Network monitoring for Mac with Obkio allows you to collect information on the network metrics that affect network performance the most, and get notified of any performance degradation or network problems.

The macOS Agent makes network monitoring on Mac easier than ever.

With a simplified installation, you can install, onboard, and begin monitoring network performance within minutes.

Obkio offers several Monitoring Agent types (all with the same features) including Windows, Mac, Linux, Docker, Hyper-V, VMware, Hardware Appliances and Public Monitoring Agents.

This provides users with the flexibility to monitor network performance using different operating systems, environments, servers etc.

Like all other Obkio Monitoring Agents, the macOS Agent monitors network performance by continuously exchanging synthetic traffic with other Monitoring Agents to monitor network performance.

Synthetic traffic is light and non-evasive, and requires no packet capture of real user data, which protects user’s privacy. Agents exchange synthetic traffic every 500ms to give you real-time performance updates.

Monitor end-to-end network performance on Mac, including Internet connectivity, and continuous monitoring of your LAN.

Your macOS Agent will automatically notify you if it discovers any network problems in your LAN, WAN, network devices, Internet, VoIP, remote offices and more.

The macOS Agent continuously measures performance metrics like latency, jitter, and packet loss and displays them on Obkio’s Network Response Time Graph.

Measuring these key network metrics will allow you to better understand if something is wrong with your network.

It can also measure metrics associated with network devices such as firewalls, routers, switches, and any other SNMP-enabled devices to help you troubleshoot network problems faster. Learn more about Network Device Monitoring.
