SNMP 101: How to Monitor Network Devices
Upcoming Webinar: September 16th, 2025 @ 12:15pm

What To Expect from the Webinar
Join us as we break down everything you need to know about SNMP device monitoring; one of the most time-tested and widely used techniques in network monitoring.
✅ 🔍 Introduction to SNMP Device Monitoring: A powerful method for gathering metrics from your routers, switches, firewalls, and more. It’s a staple in IT monitoring for a reason, and we’ll explain why it still matters today.
✅ 🚀 Discover Obkio’s SNMP Feature: SNMP is powerful, but it can be hard to configure. That’s why Obkio’s SNMP device monitoring stands out. We’ll walk you through:
- How easy it is to set up and start using with zero technical headaches
- The intuitive user interface designed for modern IT teams
- The types of network devices Obkio supports
✅ 🛠️ Live Setup: From Zero to Monitoring in Minutes: You’ll get a step-by-step demo of how to set up SNMP device monitoring inside Obkio:
- Add devices and configure SNMP settings
- Visualize key metrics like bandwidth, CPU, memory, and interface status
- Set up alerts to catch issues before users do
🎯 Who Should Attend?
- Network and IT administrators
- MSPs and tech support teams
- Anyone looking for better insight into device performance and user experience

Learn More About SNMP Device Monitoring With Obkio
Obkio brings a smarter take to SNMP device monitoring. With clear insights into your key network devices, you can spot and resolve problems like CPU strain, bandwidth spikes, or interface errors before they turn into real headaches.
đź’ˇ Why Obkio is Different: Total Network Visibility
Device performance + user experience = total network visibility
Obkio goes beyond passive SNMP collection. We inject synthetic traffic that flows through your network (just like real user traffic) and correlate those results with SNMP metrics from the same devices. This hybrid visibility model means:
đź§© Correlating SNMP Data with Network Performance
Obkio doesn’t just collect SNMP data. It correlates it with real-time Network Performance Monitoring (NPM) metrics. That means you can:
- Pinpoint internal device issues (like CPU spikes or bandwidth bottlenecks)
- Uncover external network problems (like packet loss and latency)
- Understand how device performance impacts user experience
