Castle Rock Computing Expands Remote Access and Polling Capabilities
Saratoga, CA, September 19, 2007
Castle Rock Computing announced the release of the SNMPc 7.1 Network Management
System. SNMPc 7.1 supports a larger number of remote users and remote polling agents
in the base system and provides expanded polling capabilities through the use of custom
applications or scripts.
SNMPc 7.1 Enterprise now supports up to ten Remote Polling Agents, ten Windows Console
logins, and unlimited JAVA Consoles in the base edition. This new architecture provides
a more complete and cost effective solution for management of medium to large sized
enterprises. For situations requiring a larger number of polling systems and user logins,
such as for Management Service Providers, the optional Remote Access Extension license
provides unlimited remote access.
SNMPc 7.1 includes facilities for extended polling using customer developed
applications or scripts. Custom polling can be used for polling older legacy systems
that do not support SNMP or even IP protocols. By performing a detailed analysis of
network status, custom polling applications can also provide more information to
management staff about root problem causes and suggested remedial actions. The custom
polling feature uses a new Quality of Service metric that can monitor issues related
to performance degradation, rather than just device failures.
SNMPc 7.1 also includes a number of new utilities that can be used from any scripting
language to develop script based applications. The use of scripting instead of a full
programming language can greatly simplify development of custom application suites and
integration with existing management environments. Custom scripts can be executed on
trap reception, when you double-click a map icon, from custom menus, and as custom
polling applications.
The new scripting commands perform a variety of common functions such as device SNMP
operations, and the query and configuration of SNMPc map data. The source files for all
custom scripting commands are included with SNMPc 7.1.
SNMPc 7.1 is available immediately. Please see the How to Buy page at
