Datadog's Network Device Monitoring (NDM) has expanded its capabilities by collecting Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Traps to provide comprehensive visibility into network equipment health and performance. This feature enables network engineers to catch critical network issues in real-time, consolidate troubleshooting efforts within a single platform, and set up monitors for SNMP Trap events to receive notifications for potential issues before they impact the rest of the network. By leveraging alerts on SNMP Trap data alongside various network metrics, users can diagnose issues, assess their severity, and immediately start troubleshooting.
