Monitor and secure networks remotely
Your switch or router may hang up. When this happens, remote access to your network is no longer possible. Even worse, your IT systems can no longer communicate with each other. This leads to the failure of your entire network.
The problem solver here is often a simple reboot. However, since no access to the network is possible, a service technician has to show up and solve the problem on site. This could also have been solved by a simple solution from GUDE: Through the self-healing function using a watchdog. The watchdog monitors your switch or router with regular pings. If it no longer responds, it is restarted. This way, a failure is solved before major damage can occur.
Of course, remote monitoring of entire networks should not be forgotten here. By smartly monitoring your networks remotely, you can take corrective action at any time if necessary. For example, if the operating system of the IT system hangs and a simple reboot fixes the error, there is no need to send an IT technician. Instead, you can reboot the systems remotely and save a lot of time and money. This keeps your IT systems running at peak productivity and saves you high opportunity costs. At the same time, the security factor of remote monitoring should not be neglected. In IT networks, lack of monitoring can quickly lead to overheating and, in the worst case, to fires.
Network monitoring helps you to take preventive action against this. Thanks to automated alarm messages, you can see in time where there are problems and can still intervene through out-of-band management (GSM or RS232) even if the primary network fails.
