Hi Manoj,

Orion Network Performance Monitor (NPM) can monitor any SNMP enabled device. It has native support for a wide range of popular vendors and devices and as standard it will monitor a range of performance statistics such as CPU/Memory Utilization and hardware health on these devices. In addition, NPM can be configured to poll any OID available in private enterprise MIBs. This can be used to extend monitoring of natively supported devices to include non-standard Key Performance Indicators as well as polling devices that are not natively supported.

To do this, you will need to use the Universal Device Poller (UnDP) utility which is part of NPM.

The UnDP allows you to input an OID or browse the MIB tree for OIDs you wish to poll on your devices. You can then test and assign these pollers in bulk to your devices. The results can then be transformed if necessary and displayed in various formats in any Orion web console page such as the node details view.

The UnDP can be found on your server by going to Start > Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Network Performance Monitor > Universal Device Poller.

I have supplied some links to information about using the Universal Device Poller below.
