About the graphical network topology map
To achieve a better understanding of the network, for better status, availability- and health monitoring and to understand the consequences of a failure more quickly, Monitor one allows you to create a graphical multilevel representation of your network that lets you move easily between parent maps and sub-maps (zooming-in and zooming-out). The graphical network map uses colors and icons to indicate network status at a glance. The Map makes it easy to view the IP subnets and the IP hosts that have either been added manually or with help from the Discovery utility. The network maps can be viewed and accessed locally via the native interface and/or remotely through the web-interface.
The Monitor one software lets you create an intuitive multi-level hierarchical network topology map that closely matches your actual network. The use of imported geographic maps or floor plans as backgrounds make the map easier to understand and more attractive.
FineConnection is pleased to announce the availability of the new stable Monitor one version FP1.106.391 (February 2008).
For superior trending and long-term analysis, Monitor one can act as a "front end" for RRD. RRD is a system to store and display time-series data. The RRD can also perfectly be used for exporting logged trending data to text files for use in spreadsheets or databases.
If you're using HP/Compaq servers with Insight manager agents in your network,
Monitor one provides an interface to messaging gateway systems, making it easy to send alert messages to pagers, mobile phones, PIMs and wireless devices.
The Monitor one "Desktop" option allows you to save Monitor one desktop configurations to the database for quick access later.
The new version also comes with a new licensing policy. The required license type is now only determined by the number of device objects on the network map from which you want to monitor uptime. The number of concurrently running Shooters (SNMP monitors) is now "unlimited" in all versions (was dependent of the license type!)
The new version allows you to define the font name, size and color for object labels on the network map.
