Monitoring of network equipment and reporting through Spectrum and Performance Management applications from CA Technologies

The article describes basic network issues, layered models, Internet protocols, main components and in-

tegrations between Spectrum and Performance Management applications of CA. The main aim of the study was to show how Spectrum monitors a specific event of increased RAM consumption on Router 1 device, and then to create a report in the Performance Management application to show this event on a graph. I focused on

showing how important it is to monitor network devices in the current IT world in order to be able to solve in ti- me an event that potentially indicates a malfunction on the device and counteract the occurrence of such

problems in the future.
