If you're switching from traditional telemetry or integrating non-SNMP remote alarm monitoring with an SNMP-based monitoring system, an off-the-shelf SNMP manager will not provide the visibility you expect.
It's best to find equipment that can give you visibility of all your remote site equipment, not separate systems for SNMP and non-SNMP equipment. Then you can use your SNMP manager where it does well: drilling down for specific equipment problems and network inventory. Don't use an SNMP manager for fault management and network alarm notification. It's missing at least 7 critical functions for this task. Unless you have everything reporting to one system, you won't have complete visibility. This is the role that a remote alarm monitoring system was designed for.
There are seven key functions you need when integrating SNMP and non- SNMP remote alarm monitoring systems. Your SNMP monitoring implementation will be successfully only if it supports all seven functions.
