PowerSNMP Network Manager Features

• Network Discovery - Easily discover SNMP Agents and Network Devices using enhanced network discovery tools. SNMP device discovery functions by either sending an SNMPv1 broadcast over a specified subnet, or by sending SNMPv1 requests to a range of IP addresses. For devices that do not support SNMP operations, ping-based discovery is available.
• Network Monitoring - Monitoring discovered devices is simple and easy. PowerSNMP Network Manager supports network device monitoring by configuring watches for devices. It supports two main watch types that can be set; ping-based watches and SNMP-based watches. Ping-based watches provide device up-time monitoring, while SNMP-based watches are capable of monitoring any SNMP variable that a device may support. All watches have a configurable update interval that specifies how often a watch should execute, as well as an option to report failures via email. PowerSNMP Network Manager also supports SNMP Trap monitoring.
• SNMP Features - PowerSNMP Network Manager supports SNMPv1, SNMPv2, and SNMPv3, including SNMPv3 security features such as AES encryption. These feature are FIPS-compliant, excluding MD5 and DES. PowerSNMP Network Manager also supports the loading of device specific MIB files, for monitoring SNMP Agent variables, not included by default.
