Detecting Congestion on a Remote Monitoring Platform

Remote monitoring platforms can monitor all the ports across many networks simultaneously to provide single-pane-of-glass visibility. 远程监控平台可同时监控多个网络中的所有端口，提供单一视角的可视性。

The following are some more benefits of using remote monitoring platforms: 以下是使用远程监控平台的更多好处：

1. Always-on monitoring. 全天候监控。

2. Scope across multiple networks to get a full view of traffic between hosts and storage arrays via all the paths, such as SAN-A and SAN-B. 跨多个网络进行扫描，通过所有路径（如 SAN-A 和 SAN-B）全面查看主机和存储阵列之间的流量。

3. Monitoring can be expanded to end devices as well. For example, when a host-connected switchport reports congestion, the health of the host can be monitored as well. 监控还可扩展到终端设备。例如，当主机连接的交换端口报告拥塞时，主机的健康状况也会受到监控。

4. The on-switch alerts, such as those generated by Port-Monitor on Cisco MDS switches, can be sent to the same monitoring platforms. 交换机上的警报，如 Cisco MDS 交换机上端口监控器生成的警报，可以发送到相同的监控平台。

5. Reporting and auditing. 报告和审计。

6. Long-term trends, seasonality, and patterns. 长期趋势、季节性和模式。

7. Possibility of using machine learning for predicting congestion events based on the history data. 根据历史数据使用机器学习预测拥堵事件的可能性。

The remote monitoring platforms can be of the following types. 远程监控平台可分为以下几种类型。

A platform or application developed by the device manufacturer/vendor, such as Cisco Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller (NDFC), formerly Data Center Network Manager (DCNM). 设备制造商/供应商开发的平台或应用程序，如 Cisco Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller (NDFC)（前身为 Data Center Network Manager (DCNM)）。
