NetPlus
Local Configuration Database Editor |
The NP_LDBED application provides the mechanism for editing the
local database(s) used by Auto*Manage. A default local database
(NP_WSNMP.INI) is provided . The local database is used to specify
friendly names to be associated with community strings and network
addresses, default timeout and retry values.
Note: If you are upgrading from an
earlier version (than WinSNMP 3.0), you must first run the
LDBConversion.exe utility provided to convert the LDB format.

NetPlus
Node Discovery and Status Monitor |
The NP_DISCO application provides a mechanism for you to discover
nodes on a network which have an SNMP agent and to monitor the status
of those nodes.
The system discovers nodes on a network and displays an icon on the
screen representing the current operational status of each element
using easy to understand (and user-configurable) color coding. You can
include your own background file (e.g., floor plans or geographical
maps) and reposition icons using a simple drag and drop interface to
create your own network diagrams. You can create groups of nodes and
multi-level topologies.
A network diagram can be saved in a file and retrieved at a later time.

NetPlus
MIB Browser
|
The NP_BROWZ application is a MIB browser which allows you to Get
and Set the values of MIB variables at an SNMP agent. MIB variables are
selected from MIBs (which are compiled via NP_MIB). You can select
either single variables or groups of variables. Tables will be
automatically expanded to retrieve all instances of the variables
unless specific instances are requested.
The application can use a local database to hold configuration
information for Entities and Contexts.
All SNMP transactions may be recorded in an ODBC-compliant database or
in a log file.

NetPlus
Interface Utilization Monitor
|
The NP_BUSY application allows you to monitor the interface
utilization on one or more network devices. The user can select the
devices and the interfaces to be monitored. Up to twenty interfaces may
be monitored simultaneously. The application performs repeated SNMP Get
operations at regular intervals to retrieve the values of MIB variables
from the agent, then calculates the utilization and presents the
results either as text or in a chart.
The application can use a local database to hold configuration
information for Entities and Contexts.
All SNMP transactions may be recorded in an ODBC-compliant database or
in a log file.

NetPlus
Real-Time Graphic Reporter |
The NP_CHART application allows you to poll and retrieve the values
of MIB variables from one or more SNMP agents. Values of up to twenty
counter or gauge MIB variables may be charted. The application performs
SNMP Get operations at regular intervals to retrieve the values of
specified MIB variables from the agents.
The application can use a local database to hold configuration
information for Entities and Contexts.
All SNMP transactions may be recorded in an ODBC-compliant database or
in a log file.
|

|
NetPlus
MIB Table Grabber |
The NP_TABLE application allows you to retrieve the values of MIB
Table variables from one or more SNMP agents. The application performs
SNMP GetNext operations to retrieve all rows of the specified MIB
Tables from the selected agents. The retrieved data is displayed in
tabular form with each table appearing in a separate window.
The application can use a local database to hold configuration
information for Entities and Contexts.
All SNMP transactions may be recorded in an ODBC-compliant database or
in a log file.
|

|
NetPlus
Notification Monitor |
The NP_TRAPS application captures SNMP Traps or Inform
messages received from an SNMP Agent entity and presents the results
using a graphical user interface. The application can be used to set up
filters to display only a subset of the received traps. Traps can be
automatically forwarded to another device. NP_TRAPS may also be used to
"manually" forward a trap to another device or to send a
user-defined trap message. |

|
NetPlus
MIB Walker |
The NP_WALK application allows you to do a MIB walk to discover all
or a selected range of MIB variables for an SNMP Agent. MIB variable
names can be displayed for variables whose OIDs are known (because the
MIBs that define them have been compiled via NP_MIB), otherwise just
the OIDs and their values are displayed.
The application can use a local database to hold configuration
information for Entities and Contexts.
All SNMP transactions may be recorded in an ODBC-compliant database or
in a log file.

 |
NetPlus
MIB Complier |
The NP_MIB application lets you compile MIB definitions so that they
can use by the other Auto*Manage applications. NP_MIB can also be used
to view and print the compiled MIBs.
You can assign an alias name to a MIB to be displayed instead of the
original name in the list of MIBs in the Auto*Manage applications. MIBs
compiled in one location may be copied or moved to another location and
then imported into the MIB database.
