Monitis Announces a Product Upgrade - Enterprise-Grade SNMP Network Monitoring Is Now Available

Nov. 23, 2009 - PRLog -- This new release close a major gap in delivering a true, all-in-one monitoring solution that unites application performance management (APM) with back-end server, Cloud infrastructure, network monitoring, and network management to deliver a consolidated picture of a system’s health and performance.

According to Hovhannes Avoyan, Monitis’ Founder and CEO, “This upgrade is a torpedo in the rudder of old-school, software-based network monitoring software and network management software.  With it, we’ve removed any reason for network managers and system administrators to stay bound by inefficient software-based systems, and we’ve given them every reason to switch to Monitis.  We’ve just changed the rules of network performance management again.”

SNMP or Simple Network Management Protocol is a network based protocol used for monitoring network-attached devices for conditions that warrant administrative attention.  It is a standard protocol used by all network equipment vendors for managing and monitoring switches, routers, access points, VPNs, firewalls, VoIP devices and more. SNMP is also widely used by software vendors for remote management.  SNMP monitoring is a standard feature supported by software-based network management systems.  

Monitis’ MonitorSNMP has been a free service for more than 11 months, and now Monitis launches its premium version, which will provide more advanced features, including:

-  MIB views
-  SNMP traps (SNMP notifications) monitoring
-  SNMP walk (an SNMP application allowing the user to gather a tree of information)
-  1 min interval monitoring
-  events’ filtering
-  and advanced notification rules giving the user an integrated holistic picture
 
Monitis’ SNMP monitoring can be used by small and medium size enterprises (SMEs), freelancers and managed service providers (MSPs).Monitis’ SNMP monitoring enables network monitoring at anytime from anywhere, with hassle-free deployment and updates, and easy management and usage.  

This upgrade also enhances support of features already present in the free version, such as MIB viewers, custom MIBs (Objects managed by SNMP are arranged in management information bases (MIBs). MIB is a collection of hierarchically organized information used to manage the devices in a communications network.  MIB comprises a collection of objects in the virtual database used to manage entities, such as routers and switches in a network).
