Issue/Introduction

I need to monitor a specific metric on a device, how do I do that?

Environment

Dx NetOps Performance Management 21.2.x, 22.2.x

Resolution

If you look at the following page:

https://netops-certification.broadcom.com/vendors(default-header:vendors)

This lists certified devices/agents and the metric families/SNMP agent supported by CAPM version

This can be used to locate your device, see the metric families to place in a monitoring profile to apply to a collection containing the device, and what vendor certifications to apply to get those statistics.

If you don't see the device/agent/metrics you need you can:

1) Submit a certification request by providing the information below in a support ticket:
