Switches

If switch monitoring is enabled with the "virtual_network_monitoring" option in the configuration file, an agent will be created for each switch with the following modules:

<nombre_switch>_ifOperStatus indicates the operational status of a physical or virtual network interface
<nombre_switch>_overallStatus indicates the general status of the switch in terms of availability and health
<nombre_switch>_connectedVMs displays the number of virtual machines that are connected
