General Question: How do I use the monitor?

Votes:

0

Hi there, I need to make general use out of the network monitor. We are using it for the first time and would like to use the network monitor as a backup from our cloud provider's monitor. We have never used this type of network monitor and would like to know where to start to learn more about using this tool.
