Overview
 Windows-based Application Neon Software, Inc
 Monitor switches, routers, hubs, servers…. Etc.
 SNMP and MIB II
 Automatically create:
 utilization graphs
 daily, weekly, and monthly quality of service (QoS),
 Receive alerts for both non-responsive devices and traffic thresholds
 Monitor 5, 10, 20 or 100 devices
How it works
 sends an SNMP query over network to router's MIB
 Several SNMP queries were sent to the router to compile a list of
the network interfaces present on that router, along with each
interface's maximum speed and its type.
 another SNMP query was sent to obtain the router's name, type,
location, how long the router had been running, and the person
responsible for maintaining the router.
 determine how much bandwidth was consumed during the
Monitoring Rate interval, and calculates the percentage of the
total bandwidth available

Conclusion
Visual Route Server
Function
This VisualRoute Server provides a graphical
traceroute from this server to any other network device
you choose, useful for pinpointing network
connectivity problems and identifying IP
addresses.
VisualRoute Personal Edition combines essential
networking utilities, including traceroute, ping, WHOIS,
and reverse DNS, to determine precisely where and
how traffic is flowing on an Internet connection,
providing a geographical map of the route and the
performance of each segment.


VisualRoute Features
See actual IP address locations - identifies the
physical city/country location of IP addresses -- which is
often quite different from the IP registration location -and shows the path of an Internet connection on a global
map.
Worldwide WHOIS reporting - get instant domain and
network registration information from worldwide
databases, so you can easily report a network problem
or investigate an IP address.


VisualRoute Features
Internet connectivity analysis - answers the question "Why can't I
get there from here?" by providing an analysis of the Internet from
where you are to where you want to go. VisualRoute will help you to
determine if a connectivity problem is due to your ISP, the Internet,
or the host you are trying to reach, and pinpoints which network (ie.
WorldCom, Verio, Ebone, MSN) a problem is in.

Automated ping reporting - the Ping Grapher tool
continuously monitors the response time of a network
host.
Application port testing - reports the availability of
popular IP services including POP3, FTP and SMNP.


VisualRoute Features
eMailTracker - traces an email address to its email
server, providing helpful information for resolving email
problems. For identifying the source of emails that have
been received, use VisualRoute together with the
popular eMailTrackerPro product.

VisualRoute Outputs
VisualRoute provides three types of data: an overall
analysis, a data table, and a geographical view of the
routing.
The analysis section provides the number of routing
hops, where problems occurred, the web server software
running at the destination site, and identifies any routing
loops.
The data table lists information for each hop, including
packet loss, IP address, node name, geographical
location, ping response and the major Internet backbone
where each server resides.

WHAT IS Perl?
• Perl is a language like C/C++, C#,
JAVA…etc.
• Open Source.
• Can be run over most existence platforms.
Perl & Network Management
• Two ways to implement SNMP in Perl:
 Call command-line programs
 (e.g. UCD-SNMP)
 Need a community name on the command line.
 Using Perl SNMP module.
 Net::SNMP by David M. Town
 SNMP_Session.pm by Simon Leinen
 SNMP Extension Module v.3.1.0 for UCD SNMPv3
library (or SNMP)by G.S. Marzot.
Perl SNMP modules
Net::SNMP SNMP_Session
.pm
SNMPv1

SNMPv2

Perl SNMP modules (cont.)
• SNMP need to be linked against a separate
pre_built UCD-SNMP library, while
Net::SNMP and SNMP_Session.pm can
work with Perl alone.
• UCD-SNMP library can be built in your
platform.
• Best selection is SNMP.

Two types offered
• SNMPc Enterprise Edition employs a distributed
polling agent architecture to provide a high
performance solution capable of monitoring networks
from several hundred devices to tens of thousands.
Remote software and Web based consoles provide
network information to everyone who needs it.
• SNMPc Workgroup Edition is an affordable version
of SNMPc suitable for a single user and small to
medium sized networks.
Scalability
Multiple Login Consoles
SNMPc Enterprise provides remote access consoles through JAVA or
Windows based client software. Each remote user is assigned a security level
and unique view of the network based on their user login. The ability to
provide individual network views is useful in large corporate or MSP/ISP
environments.
Manager of Managers
SNMPc Enterprise can be deployed as a hierarchical management
system providing a single view for multiple branch level SNMPc installations.
A full peer-to-peer architecture is supported where each SNMPc
Enterprise can be both a branch and top level manager simultaneously. This
lets you to deploy a scalable fault tolerant management system. Existing
customers have used this architecture to deploy solutions monitoring
networks in excess of 200,000 devices.
Reliability
Live/Standby Servers
To ensure a reliable 24/7 network monitoring
solution SNMPc Enterprise supports live/standby
management servers. The backup SNMPc server
continually monitors the primary server and in the
event of a failure automatically takes over all network
management functions. An automated failover process
includes the reconfiguration of any distributed polling
agents in the network. Through the standby server
feature, users can continue to monitor their network if
the primary system is disabled through system failure,
human error or other unforeseen circumstances.
Console options
•
JAVA Console
The SNMPc Remote Access
Extension supports a JAVA based remote
console. The JAVA console can be used
from any Internet or Intranet connected
computer, including Apple, Linux and
Windows systems. The SNMPc Java
Console is optimized for low speed WAN
lines, making it well suited for use by
outsourced Network Service and Help Desk
personnel.
Basic functionality includes user
specific topology map displays, event log
views, and real-time MIB table/graph
displays. Long-term trend reports can be
viewed after selection with a calendar
control. Also included is a JAVA proxy
Telnet application for configuration of
Cisco routers and other devices.
Network mapping
Advanced Network Mapping
SNMPc supports a multi-level hierarchical map.
Each hierarchy can represent cities, buildings, or
subnetworks. Imported bitmaps of geographic maps or
floor plans, along with manual or automatic network
placement, lets you create a layout that closely matches the
actual network.
SNMPc can automatically lay out each map
network as a tree, ring, or bus topology. Each map object
uses a device specific or user selected icon, and the object
color indicates the device status. You can start any device
specific application by double clicking map icons.
The Map Navigation Tool Window displays the
map as a tree for direct selection of objects. The
Navigation tree also displays the current alarm status of
each subnet to quickly locate failing devices.
The map window Full Zoom feature
automatically moves and zooms the view so that all devices
are always visible in the window. The Pan/Zoom feature
lets you select a region to zoom into from the complete set
of devices in a view.
Monitoring & Alerts
•
•
•
Availability and Status Polling
SNMPc automatically discovers and polls SNMP/ICMP, WEB, FTP, SMTP, and TELNET services, as
well as up to 16 user-selectable TCP services per node. Each application can also be configured to match on
"success strings" returned by the service. Along with real-time service status, SNMPc Enterprise also provides
WEB-based Availability Reports.
Automatic Threshold Alarms
Once Trend Reporting is setup, Polling Agents monitor all report variables for a learning period and
calculate a baseline for typical patterns.
Thereafter, the Polling Agents compare the actual polled data to the baseline and generate alarms when
variables deviate excessively from the baseline. Polling Agents automatically adjust baselines as traffic patterns
change. You can also manually configure alarm thresholds for any polled variable.
Alerting
SNMPc changes the color of map objects and performs other actions based on received events. Event
Action Filters select the action to take when an event occurs. An "easy event" filter option lets you to create
event filters directly from log file entries.
SNMPc offers a wide range of event actions including:
–
–
–
–
–
Email, Page
Play WAV Sound
Execute Application
Forward SNMP Trap
Pop-up Alarm Window
Trend Reporting
•
Scheduled Printed and WEB Reports
SNMPc Enterprise automatically
generates scheduled daily, weekly, and monthly
statistic reports. Report formats include graph, bar
chart, distribution, and summary. They can be
exported to a variety of destinations, including
printers, files, or a WEB server.
SNMPc Enterprise report setup is very
simple. After selecting a group of nodes, simply
select the report, the reporting style, destination,
and schedule. SNMPc Enterprise automatically
collects the data and gererates the reports. You can
use the included TrendView application or a WEB
browser to view reports from any workstation.
•
ODBC Export
SNMPc Enterprise can automatically
export all saved long-term statistics to industry
standard ODBC databases. Use familiar tools such
as Seagate Crystal Reports or Microsoft Access to
generate customized trend reports.
