A method of monitoring a network, in particular a data or telecommunication network, where the network includes a number of units to be monitored, and where relevant states of these units are controlled with respect to functionality, efficiency and/or security by means of provided information elements called managed objects at the monitored units, that reflect states and/or parameters to be monitored, and that are read and/or written by a network management system using network management protocols, is characterized in that at the managed units an additional management object—the health check object—is being implemented, such that almost all relevant states of the respective monitored unit are aggregated into a single value, that can be read by the network management system.
