Networks that use SNMP can be managed with a good understanding of advanced SNMP Management.

SNMP network can be used to refer to a collection of networked devices that utilize SNMP, or Simple Network Management Protocol. Simple Network Management Protocol is an open source protocol. This protocol defines how information is exchanged between SNMP network management applications and SNMP agents

While SNMP can be managed with network monitoring application software, it is only the best option if you have no devices on your network that use other protocols.

A Basic SNMP Manager Works Only If You Don't Need to Monitor Other Protocols

For an exclusively SNMP network of monitored devices, basic SNMP managers will get the job done. If you have devices that use other protocols, however, that same basic SNMP manager will not be an effective solution for your monitoring needs.

An Advanced Network Management Platform Provides Clear View of Your Network - Regardless of Differing Device Protocols

To provide for the most comprehensive monitoring for your network devices, you may want to consider the advantages of an advanced network management platform, such as T/Mon. T/Mon allows your operators to view standing alarm messages from all of the devices along your network, combining notifications in over 25 different protocols into one convenient window.

Effective Monitoring Reduces Network Downtime

Effectively linking your SNMP network of devices with your non-SNMP devices can boost your revenue and slash your costs. T/Mon gives more detailed information regarding network activity, increasing the efficiency of network technicians when responding to alarms. By having a clear, unified picture of your network status at all times, your operators will be able to react to network events much faster than they could ever before, saving you from losing customers or revenue to network outages.

With T/Mon deployed in your network, you'll also have a reduced screen count at your NOC, reducing required monitoring manpower and training expense.
