Network Failure and Tools

Please respond to the following:

• According to the text, a key element of a proactive network management strategy is fault notification. As a network engineer, determine the key individuals whom you should notify in the occurrence of a network event. Next, analyze the manner in which syslog and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) can assist in the notification process. Determine when you would suggest using one protocol over the other. Include one (1) example or scenario that demonstrates the use of such protocol to support your response.
• Analyze the tools used to conduct a baseline assessment (e.g., SNMP, RMON, NBAR, and the IP SLA). Select the tool that you believe is the most useful in creating a baseline assessment. Provide one (1) example of using the tool that you selected to support your response.
