Introduction of SNMPc and NetAtlas

With the number of network device increase, the demand to detect and
respond to the network failure or external event in a very short time posts a
great challenge to network administrator. How to easily manage and monitor
network devices across networks becomes more and more important in
network management.

Figure 1 presents main elements of the system architecture. Element
Management System (EMS), NetAtlas provides a centralized remote
management platform and acts as SNMPc manager to perform network
configuration, system management, event/alarm management, performance
management and security for all ZyXEL’s Ethernet Switch solutions. SNMPc is
network management software produced by Castle Rock that constantly probe
the network element (NE) and collect information of those NE for EMS.
Underneath the EMS is Postgres SQL, the enterprise relational database
system, provides query for EMS
