Network Management System (NMS) & Client Portal Our Network Management
System (NMS) provides all essential monitor and control operations from
a centrally-located network operations center (NOC).
The iBuilder product provides all configuration and control capabilities,
including the ability to send software and firmware updates over-the-air
to remote locations. The iMonitor product provides extensive tools for
passive monitoring and active investigation of network behaviour. Both
products provide graphical views of network layout and allow all system
parameters to be viewed and configured from an intuitive, easy-to-use
graphical user interface (GUI).
Scalability is a one of the major network management issues for large
distributed networks. Our NMS currently allows networks to be partitioned
as required taking into consideration, geographic areas, satellite transponders,
or groups of remote sites separately, as appropriate.
Our NMS provides individual user login capability along with privilege
levels to distribute monitoring and control functions across the operations
staff as appropriate. The iDirect SNMP proxy agent bridges iDirect’s NMS
into SNMP-based management systems. The proxy monitors all components
of the iDirect network (remotes, protocol processors, Hubs), and provides
both asynchronous traps SNMP-Get functionality for monitoring the status
of iDirect network elements.
