Switch Inventory
With the NetQ UI and NetQ CLI, you can monitor your inventory of switches across the network or individually. A user can view operating system, motherboard, ASIC, microprocessor, disk, memory, fan, and power supply information.
For switch performance information, refer to Switch Monitoring.
