Using SNMP for creating distributed diagnostic tools
In this paper we describe how SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) can be extended to do control system diagnostics. Our solution consists of a SNMP agent for LynxOS and a configurable MIB (Management Information Base) browser. We have reused diagnostic modules from the existing diagnostic system and integrated our development into a commercial network management product
Web-Based Network Device Monitoring Tool Using Simple Network Management Protocol (Snmp)
The Internet enables different computer networks to join together into one network in
which many different models of network devices can co-exist with each other. Standard
management protocol is necessary for the purpose of managing these networks. SNMP
(Simple Network Management Protocol), one of the standard protocols, is designed for
this open-class management function and is successfully implemented.
This thesis suggests a monitoring of network device statistical data from a remote place.
This approach reduced the complexity of existing techniques, which are basically
operable in specific operating system and having no standard Graphical User Interface
(GUI). To address this problem, a system based on WWW standard tool is developed
which is SNMP compatible as well as operable with any network device.
The network device monitoring tool is a client program, which is managed and could be
contacted with the server program. A web server and a browser are to provide static,
dynamic, and interactive management information. A web server, which plays a managing role, offers a variety of types of information. An SNMP agent, which cooperates
with a web server, uses SNMP protocol and provides access to management
information of network devices/agents. The implementation of the user interface using
the web-based technique of Java Applet makes it possible for a manager to easily search
and manage agent Management Information Base (Mill) through a browser. Java SNMP
class files and SNMP Applet Server (SAS) classes are used inside the Web-server to
communicate with network devices. The network device monitoring tool is configured
to collect network statistical data. It can monitor the real time graph on the basis of MIB
variable from remote place and shows more efficient than the existing tool
