Does monitoring of network performance cause noteworthy load by itself?

Votes:

0

We would like to check the networt performance of the internet connection and internal network of a remote site. Does using PRTG for monitoring Ping, bandwidth etc. cause noteworthy load by itself, or is it negligible?

Thank you for your input!

It's pretty negligible, if you don't use 1s intervals :)
