Common Holes in an SNMP Network Management System
Budgets are tight in today's business environment. You may be asked to do more with less. Take a look through your equipment room. You may have several devices that work just fine, but they are not visible via your network management system (NMS). The devices are too expensive to replace, but at the same time, you need to be able to monitor them with your NMS. The Asentria SNMP-Link™ Remote Site Manager can provide the integrated monitoring capabilities you need at a small fraction of the replacement cost. Many devices lack a network interface, but they have ASCII-based protocols that can help you monitor and control them. Asentria can develop special software tools for the SNMP-Link to communicate with these protocols in order to bridge the gap with your SNMP network. There are three levels of integrating legacy devices into an SNMP network. |
