Learn about Ethernet switch health monitoring

Contributors netapp-yvonneo netapp-jsnyder

The Ethernet switch health monitor (CSHM) proactively monitors the health of cluster and storage network switches in ONTAP, raising alerts on detected faults and collecting switch logs for debugging.

CSHM monitors cluster and storage network switches to maintain network infrastructure reliability. The health monitor automatically detects switch issues, collects logs for troubleshooting, and provides alerts when network problems occur. CSHM supports multiple switch vendors and models, helping you identify and resolve network connectivity issues before they affect your storage environment.
