Yes, you can of course monitor a Windows hypervisor, just like any Windows server (attached as proof).
No you cannot monitor the virtual switch inside hyper-v.
You may be able to export the WMI counters for each VM over SNMP and then add support for that, but you are on your own there.

The existence or not of a hypervisor has little to no bearing on the graphing of the networking counters maintained by the OS.
You give virtually zero information on exactly what you are trying to do.

Has anyone been able to have a hyper-v virtual as a device being monitored by Observium successfully capture the network traffic of the hyper-v virtual?
