  1. Multi Router Traffic Grapher (MRTG) The Multi Router Traffic Grapher (MRTG) is a tool to monitor the traffic load on network links. MRTG generates HTML pages containing PNG images which provide a LIVE visual representation of this traffic. MRTG consists of a Perl script which uses SNMP to read the traffic counters of your routers and a fast C program which logs the traffic data and creates beautiful graphs representing the traffic on the monitored network connection. These graphs are embedded into webpages which can be viewed from any modern Web-browser. In addition to a detailed daily view, MRTG also creates visual representations of the traffic seen during the last seven days, the last five weeks and the last twelve months. This is possible because MRTG keeps a log of all the data it has pulled from the router. This log is automatically consolidated so that it does not grow over time, but still contains all the relevant data for all the traffic seen over the last two years. This is all performed in an efficient manner. Therefore you can monitor 200 or more network links from any halfway decent UNIX box.

  2. Multi Router Traffic Grapher (MRTG) MRTG uses the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to send requests with two object identifiers (OIDs) to a device. The device, which must be SNMP-enabled, will have a management information base (MIB) to look up the OIDs specified. After collecting the information it will send back the raw data encapsulated in an SNMP protocol. MRTG records this data in a log on the client along with previously recorded data for the device. The software then creates an HTML document from the logs, containing a list of graphs detailing traffic for the selected device.

  4. CiscoWorks LAN Management Solution (LMS) CiscoWorks LAN Management Solution (LMS) is an integrated suite of management tools that simplify the configuration, administration, monitoring, and troubleshooting of Cisco networks. Built upon popular Internet-based standards, CiscoWorks LMS applications help enable network operators to manage the network through a browser-based interface that can be accessed anytime from anywhere within the network. CiscoWorks LMS maintains a centralized list of all Cisco network devices and their credentials that serves as a single repository for all CiscoWorks applications whether they are installed locally or distributed in a multiserver deployment.

  12. CiscoWorks Campus Manager Features: Device discovery, mapping, and monitoring • Link and device status display based upon Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) polling • Identification of Layer 2 configuration discrepancies and many other new physical and logical discrepancies • Automatic location and correlation of information on users by MAC, IP address, NT login, or UNIX host name, with their physical connections to the switched network • Visibility and launch point of Cisco CallManager from topology services as well as tracking of phone handset to IP, MAC address, and switch port • Ability to form hierarchical groups in Topology View based on criteria like SysLocation, SysName, and IP address or subnet mask with unlimited levels of nesting • Support for Spanning Tree Protocol-Per VLAN Spanning Tree Plus (PVST+), Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) support for configuration, recommendation reports, and visualization reports for modeling Spanning Tree Protocol configuration in offline mode

  13. CiscoWorks Campus Manager Features: Device configuration management Configuration of VLAN/LAN Emulation (LANE), PVLAN, and ATM services and assignment of switch ports to those services Troubleshooting • Diagnostic tools for connectivity-related problems between end stations and Layer 2 and Layer 3 devices • Layer 2 and Layer 3 path trace between source and destination handsets • Support for time delay reflectometry (TDR) to detect faults in a cable and locate open circuits, short circuits, sharp bends, crimps, kinks, impedance mismatches, and other such defects

  14. CiscoWorks Campus Manager Features: Graphical user interface and usability • Intuitive workflow and dashboard user interfaces for easy data access and administration • Intelligent discovery and display of large Layer 2 networks on browser-accessible topology maps, independent of VTP server • Java plug-ins to improve GUI performance • New lightweight HTML-based user interface for the user tracking and campus administration functions • Export of topology maps to Visio

  15. IBM Tivoli • The list of products from the Statement of Work is reproduced below: • IBM Tivoli Framework • IBM Tivoli Monitoring • IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Web Infrastructure • IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Databases • IBM Tivoli NetView • IBM Tivoli Switch Level Analyzer • IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console • IBM Tivoli Manager for Exchange • IBM Tivoli Web Site Analyzer • IBM Tivoli Business Systems Manager • Peregrine Service Center

  16. IBM Tivoli • This design describes the architecture, general configurations and guidelines for the implementation of following solutions: • Tivoli Infrastructure, Base Monitoring and Event Management • It ensures that Tivoli can communicate with the managed resources; hardware and operating system components are monitored and a central server is defined for event management. The Tivoli infrastructure, the measurement data and event information produced by this first step is the basis for all further steps of the solution • Database and Web Application Monitoring • Databases (Oracle, MS-SQL and DB2) will be managed with pre-configured, best-practice monitoring solutions. IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Databases and Web Applications are installed on top of the infrastructure provided in step 1.

  17. IBM Tivoli • Business Impact Management • The business impact management is realized using the IBM Tivoli Business Systems Manager. Once the product is configured it will provide a map of business systems required for business processes. • Helpdesk management • Helpdesk functions will be enabled to identify a business impact in case an IT-component is not working or exceeds defined thresholds. • Network Management • IBM Tivoli NetView will be responsible for managing all of the components distributed Network. The network admin will be able to monitor their networking devices, define network monitors and thresholds with the solution and receives reports and alerts on the status of the defined monitored devices.
