WhatsUp Gold includes five global performance monitors. The original configuration for these monitors cannot be modified, nor can they be deleted from the Passive Monitor Library. However, you can configure the device-level collection settings for each monitor, as well as enable or disable the monitor on specific devices.
To configure a global performance monitor:
On the monitor configuration dialog, select the specific item you want to monitor by making a selection in the Collect data for drop-down list. Depending on the monitor, you can select to collect data for All, Active, Specific, or Default interfaces, memories, CPUs, or disks.
If you select Specific, the list is enabled and you can select or clear the selection for any of the items in the list. This is particularly useful with the Interface Utilization monitor where a device may have many interfaces.
To enable a global performance monitor for multiple devices, use the Bulk Field Change feature for performance monitors.
