Network Device Monitoring: Topology Maps and NetFlow

Jun 5, 2026

Most teams run one tool for SNMP polling, another for topology, and a third for flow analysis, then spend their time stitching the views together. This webinar shows how Netdata brings all three into a single dashboard, with 100+ vendor profiles out of the box, automatic Layer 2 topology mapping, and a flow collector that auto-detects NetFlow, IPFIX, and sFlow on a single port.

We'll walk through real device discovery across a mixed-vendor network, show topology maps built from LLDP, CDP, and smart inference when neighbor protocols aren't available, and demo the flow visualizations, including GeoIP-enriched traffic views and a 3D globe with great-circle paths. You'll also see the pre-built BGP and license-expiry alerts, including ML-powered anomaly detection, that come ready to use on day one.
