Why should a Network Admin be performing monitoringnetwork/servers
 
TAFE2etwork Administrator is a professional IT consultant who is responsible for themaintenances of hardware and software, including the setting of the network andserver. Network Administrator can also setup monitoring software (
install
) on tothe company Network and monitoring their performances. In this document I am going totalk about this network/server monitoring software program, define it for you and discuss
and give some of the reason why as a Network Administrator, “you are entitled to
monitor net
work and system performances in the company”? There are a couple of 
points about, why? It is a prominent responsibility for Network Administrator and notanyone else in the company to monitor the network and server performance. Some of thepoints may be closed or closer in explanation of the Network/Server monitoring duties.Knowledge, Skills and Experiences:Monitoring the Network/Server performance is done by experiences, skills andknowledge, and that why it is much more important for Network Administrator becausehe/she has a skills and knowledge of monitoring Network and Server performance. AsNetwork Administrator, I have understood what are the risk of not performing theseduties and should be perform by an Ordinary user which is unacceptable. There might aproblem in software monitoring tools that are being used by Network Administratordepending on with the Software program that you have installed on the Network/Servermachines. As network Administrator; I might be having Degree or Diploma inNetworking, I got a skills of monitoring Network/Server performance and experiences,while other users have their own responsibilities according to their educationalbackgrounds. They have their own experience that they might be working in differencesfield of Technology not closer to Networking/Server field.Virus, malicious, Trojans E.T.C threats is serious:Many Organization suspects that their internal threats are more pressing than the externalsecurity and this internal threat is always cause by poor users security result. TheyCompanies are always worry about their services being attack by virus, malicious,Trojans and much more unwanted software program that can attack our network/serverthrough users logon account. This is because they are likely to download personalsoftware programs on company Network, some forget to scan their removal disk storagesfor infections files and that were the virus come.Those unwanted software programs can be monitor by Network Administrator and trainusers about what should be done to avoid virus infection from, Internet, USB, and othersdevices that can bring in unwanted files to the Company Network Computers . I shouldbe making sure that this unwanted program that that can harm C
ompany‟s Network 
computers is being removed. I, as Network Administrator should performances such atask in order to make sure that the Network/Server is running securely, faster andreliably.

 Network Administrator is the only one who can ensure the stable operation of theNetwork and server, planning configuration and networking equipments andcommunication link in case of any failure to the network, no one else can manage toinherit the Network Admin responsibilities, Network administrator has skills introubleshooting the networking and server failure.Analyze the problem and identify the quick solutions:Our Network and Servers connections are always facing a Hugh security risk that lead tothe failure of Network/Server. Who should analyze the problem, the Users may find that
their Network isn‟t connected but they are not sure, what to do? With this issues being
raise by users, users should call in Network Administrator in order to analyze theproblem and identify alternative solutions for the problem.Network Attackers:The Monitoring of the Network/Server performance, the online problem is always athreat and worry to the Company, this is because what? Where this threat is comingfrom? And it
‟
s going to be hard in identifying it. Therefore, we better call in a Network Administrator with his/her experience, skills and knowledge to identify this threat to theNetwork. The unwanted entries that can be detect and remove by Network Administratorincludes; virus, spyware, Trojans and there allots more that need Admin attention.As a Network Administrator, I shouldn

t wasting any time in taking the right options inorder to prevent, stop and remove any harmful materials that where attempting to, orinterrupt the network/server performance.Monitoring users Activities:The Company services that can be monitor by Network Administrator from usersmisbehaving are; checking unwanted websites for personal, downloading unwantedsoftware, doing such thing on Company Network while saving customers isunacceptable, depending on the Organization policies, Network Administrator should bemonitoring Network/Server from the virus bring in by users activities in online, poorcomputer performance.
