Network License - Syslog, SNMP and More

The Network License in ELM Enterprise Manager is designed specifically for network devices including firewalls, switches, routers and other devices. It is the perfect compliment to Windows event log and performance monitoring across your domains.

Listed below are the core features found in the Network license. Notifications and Reporting features are shared across all licenses within ELM Enterprise Manager.

SNMP Alarm

The SNMP Alarm includes a MIB browser that queries a SNMP Object ID (OID) and triggers an Action if the value is greater than, less than, or equal to a specified value. It extends the status monitoring of ELM beyond Windows systems and into SNMP supported network devices.

SNMP Collector

The SNMP Collector monitors on a scheduled basis the SNMP Object ID's and returns the values to the ELM Server. They are stored in the Primary Database for reporting and trending.

SNMP Receiver

The SNMP Receiver is configured to process SNMP Traps from network devices. These traps can be translated against stored .mibs and converted into a Windows event log format. Like Windows events, they are stored in the Primary database for reporting, Filtered to create concise Views and used to trigger a Notification. Use ELM event log management technologies monitor non-Windows systems.

Syslog Receiver

The Syslog Receiver is configured to process Syslog messages from network devices and UNIX-based systems. Supporting both UDP and TCP, these messages are converted using the standard Windows event log format. Like Windows events, they are stored in the Primary database for reporting, Filtered to create concise Views and used to trigger a Notification. When used to supports firewalls, they fortify the security barrier around Windows networks.

Ping Monitor

The Ping Monitor sends custom ICMP echo requests to verify TCP/IP connectivity and the Quality of Service. It provides an early warning alert of a problem with the remote system's status, whether it be a server, workstation or other network device.

The Ping Monitor feature is included with all of the licenses in ELM Enterprise Manager 6.5.
