You can't afford to replace large sections of your network

If you had a handful of small, cheap non-SNMP devices in a network of mostly SNMP equipment, I'd tell you to go ahead and replace them. But that's probably not your situation.

I bet that, if you're reading this white paper, you've got enough non-SNMP or non-TL1 equipment that the thought of replacing it all makes you go green.

Depending on the size of your network, the cost of a forklift swapout of your non-SNMP and non-TL1 equipment can range from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars.

And it's not just the cost of replacing equipment. Do you have the manpower to install all that new equipment? And how much will that cost you in overtime?

The bottom line is, keeping your non-SNMP and non-TL1 equipment in place is going to save you a ton of money … more than enough to justify the much smaller cost of a protocol mediation solution.
