NDM Supported Integrations
Overview
Network Device Monitoring (NDM) supports a growing set of integrations for routers, switches, firewalls, SD-WAN platforms, and virtual infrastructure. Use the tables below to find which integrations support NDM collection and how each one connects to Datadog.
Beyond the integrations shown below, NDM includes built-in SNMP profiles for over 80
supported vendors.
Software Defined Networking
The following integrations cover software-defined and edge networking platforms that support NDM collection. SD-WAN is a type of networking technology that uses software-defined networking (SDN) principles to manage and optimize the performance of wide area networks (WANs). They provide visibility into link health, throughput, and connectivity across distributed sites.
| Integration | Summary | Collection type |
|---|
| Cisco ACI | Monitors Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) fabric topology, endpoint group health, and tenant policy status through the APIC REST API. | Agent-based |
| Cisco SD-WAN | Collects device health, tunnel status, and WAN link performance metrics from Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN (vManage) through the vManage REST API. | Agent-based |
| VMware VeloCloud SD-WAN | Monitors SD-WAN edge device health, link quality, and application performance from the VMware VeloCloud Orchestrator API. | Crawler-based |
| Fortinet FortiManager | Collects managed device inventory, policy deployment status, and system health metrics from Fortinet FortiManager through its JSON-RPC API. | Crawler-based |
| Versa Networks | Monitors Versa SD-WAN appliances for device health, SLA performance, and application-aware routing metrics through the Versa Director API. | Agent-based |
Wireless Networking
The following integrations cover wireless networking platforms that support NDM collection. These integrations provide visibility into wireless access points, client connections, and network performance across your wireless infrastructure.
| Integration | Summary | Collection type |
|---|
| Cisco Meraki | Collects network device status, client counts, and uplink performance from Cisco Meraki cloud-managed networks through the Meraki Dashboard API. | Crawler-based |
| Juniper Mist (Preview) | Provides end-to-end visibility into cloud-managed Juniper Mist wireless, wired, and WAN network infrastructure, including access points, switches, and gateways through the Juniper Mist API. | Crawler-based |
| Aruba Central (Preview) | Monitors Aruba Central-managed network devices, including access points and switches for health and performance metrics through the Aruba Central API. | Crawler-based |
Virtualization
NDM can also monitor virtualized environments that expose network telemetry through SNMP or API-based integrations. These integrations help you correlate host-level performance with physical network metrics.
| Integration | Summary | Collection type |
|---|
| VMware vSphere | Monitors vSphere hosts, virtual machines, data stores, and clusters for resource utilization and network performance through the vCenter API. | Agent-based |
| OpenStack | Collects hypervisor, VM, and virtual network metrics from OpenStack services including Nova, Neutron, and Cinder. | Agent-based |
| Proxmox VE | Monitors Proxmox Virtual Environment nodes, VMs, and containers for resource usage and cluster health through the Proxmox REST API. | Agent-based |
