Which tool or software to use to check either network switch is down or up? I am looking for free tool / software or with minimum cost.

Sajjad, see our Network Monitoring / SNMP for Video Surveillance Guide for details.

Excerpt:

There are many network monitoring platforms available, all with varying featuresets and protocol support, both paid and free. Some popular platforms include:

In our demonstrations for this guide, we used PRTG because it is one of the most popular platforms available. Additionally, it offers a wide variety of sensor types (SNMP, Windows Management Instrumentation, SSH for Linux/MAC, HTTP, Ping, and more), and free licensing for up to 100 sensors.

I'll defer to others on their personal preferences, etc.
