Chapter 6. Network Counters

We will continue our exploration of counters by covering Network counters in this chapter. We will take the same approach as we did with CPU and RAM. We will cover the following topics:

  • VM Network counters

  • ESXi Network counters

  • Cluster Network counters

  • Distributed Virtual Switch Network counters

  • Network counters at higher levels
