This excellent, low-cost network and service monitor puts its awareness of connections between devices, subnets, and services to work in achieving highly efficient, scalable 24x7 surveillance. Keeping watch over your entire network can be a daunting task. Ideally, data collection and presentation should reflect relationships between network devices and services. Here, in part five of our entry-level NMS series , we take a look at WhatsUp Gold from Ipswitch . We installed WhatsUp Gold 5.0 on a PIII 500 running Windows NT4 SP5, using the supplied setup program.
Installation is quick and painless.
You must make install ODBC before WhatsUp Gold, because graph support cannot be added later. This demo provides an excellent overview of WhatsUp Gold features and navigation. Network Discovery Pt. Network Monitoring Pt. Corp. All Rights Reserved.
