With network monitoring, software keeps an eye on the network day and night. Is every access point still working? Is the connection stable? Is a switch getting too hot? If something is out of the ordinary, the administrator gets an alert.
Without monitoring you only hear about a fault when a user calls. With monitoring the problem can often be solved before anyone is affected.
Continuous monitoring is part of the highest IT-Label level, IT1+ Premium.
What does this mean for the IT-Label?
Continuous monitoring is mentioned in the official description of IT1+ Premium. It falls under Infrastructure, of which network management is part. Monitoring also helps with Performance: problems are spotted before users are affected. See also access point and redundancy.
