About browsing the MIB tree and compiling new MIB files
The Monitor one MIB browser is a full-featured SNMP MIB browser with advanced features for visualizing and navigating the MIB tree. It is also the key component for building new customized SNMP sensors (Shooters). When you view the MIB tree, the program automatically collects the values of the variables on the current node and displays them in a response box.
Monitor one also provides a built-in MIB compiler. You can use the compiler to add new OIDs to the tree in order to support new hardware. The Monitor one out-of-the-box MIB tree contains about 7000 of the most commonly used OIDs from rfc and enterprise specific MIB files.
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.
