Abstract
A monitoring apparatus includes a storage and a processor. The storage stores collecting apparatus information for identifying one of a plurality of collecting apparatuses collecting status information of a network. The processor acquires status information of the network from a network apparatus connected to the network. The processor acquires, from a database, collecting apparatus information for identifying each of the plurality of collecting apparatuses. The processor acquires, based on the acquired collecting apparatus information, load information indicating a load on each of the plurality of collecting apparatuses. The processor selects, based on the acquired load information, one collecting apparatus among the plurality of collecting apparatuses, to which the monitoring apparatus transmits the acquired status information. The processor stores collecting apparatus information for identifying the selected collecting apparatus in the storage. The processor notifies the selected collecting apparatus of monitoring apparatus information for identifying the monitoring apparatus.
