To integrate NETGEAR PoE Switches and MetricFire, please reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating NETGEAR PoE Switches and MetricFire, and see how that benefits your monitoring system.
MetricFire is a full-scale platform that provides infrastructure, system, and application monitoring using a suite of open-source monitoring tools. We enable you to use Hosted Graphite and aesthetic custom dashboards to visualize your metrics so you can understand what is happening.
MetricFire offers a complete ecosystem of end-to-end infrastructure monitoring, comprised of open-source Graphite and popular dashboards. Plugins for many other open-source projects are preconfigured, such as StatsD, collectd, and more. Not only does MetricFire fit well into many monitoring use cases, such as server monitoring, but we also offer application and cloud infrastructure monitoring.
Through this hosted environment, MetricFire boosts the unique features of open-source projects to give you more functionality than the original products. Below are some of the MetricFire features at a glance:
The key thing to remember is that Hosted Graphite by MetricFire is more than just Graphite. Our Hosted Graphite product actually adds data dimensionality and better data storage.
Benefits of Using MetricFire:
MetricFire is a powerful and flexible monitoring solution that can help you keep an eye on the health and performance of your network infrastructure. One key component of many networks is a PoE (Power over Ethernet) switch, which allows devices to be powered and communicate over the same network cable. In this article, we will explore how MetricFire can integrate with a Netgear PoE switch to give you complete visibility into your network.
First, let's briefly discuss what a PoE switch is and why it is important. A PoE switch is a network switch that includes built-in PoE injectors. This allows devices that support PoE to receive power and data through a single Ethernet cable. This can simplify cabling and reduce the need for additional power outlets or cables. PoE switches are commonly used in environments where power outlets may be limited or difficult to access, such as in industrial settings, outdoor locations, or remote locations.
Now let's dive into how MetricFire can integrate with a Netgear PoE switch. MetricFire supports a wide range of data sources, including SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). SNMP is a protocol for monitoring and managing network devices, such as switches, routers, and servers. Netgear PoE switches support SNMP, which means that MetricFire can easily collect data from these switches.
To get started, you will need to configure your Netgear PoE switch to allow SNMP polling. This typically involves configuring a community string and setting up access control to restrict who can access the switch via SNMP. Once SNMP is enabled, MetricFire can begin collecting data from the switch.
MetricFire can collect a variety of metrics from your Netgear PoE switch, including:
These metrics can be visualized in MetricFire's dashboard, allowing you to see the health and performance of your PoE switch quickly. You can also set up alerts based on thresholds or anomalies, so you can be notified if any issues arise.
MetricFire can easily integrate with a Netgear PoE switch to give you complete visibility into your network. Collecting and visualizing key metrics ensures that your network is running smoothly and quickly responding to any issues that may arise.

“We now have over ten times the amount of metrics we started with, and on different accounts. One of the great things about MetricFire is that scaling to support this increase has been hassle-free, requiring no additional work on our side.”
“Building and managing an on-premise installation at this scale would require a lot of engineer time, especially in the first year...we use this engineering time to work on initiatives closer to our core business”
“There’s complete transparency with everything MetricFire do which means we can accurately predict what we’ll be spending and comfortably keep within our budget.”
"Every time I have a question, I get an answer from support after just a couple of hours. Their technical knowledge is excellent.”
