Forklift swapouts place a huge strain on budgets: they create high capital expenditure costs, they require man-years of billable time to install, and warehoused equipment generates no ROI.
A controlled migration to SNMP monitoring from your existing system can stretch these costs over several budget cycles, ensuring a positive balance sheet during each budget cycle.

| Controlled migration lets you transition to SNMP-based alarm monitoring at your own pace. |
Here's how controlled migration works:
In first phase, alarm outputs from existing telemetry equipment is re-routed to a combined telemetry master/protocol mediation device. The protocol mediation device converts the incoming data to a single stream of SNMP data, which is forwarded to an upper-level SNMP manager.
Depending on your network's individual needs, you can stop right here or you can start migrating your network to SNMP.
If you choose the migration option, non-SNMP network elements are gradually replaced by SNMP devices. Sections of the network can be cut over to SNMP as your Cap-X and purchasing budget permits, without interfering with your network monitoring.
