is also able to publish router status and other information to the iControl GSM’s router plug-in.
This plug-in ins responsible for collecting, displaying, and updating router status in the GSM.
Some routers are also SNMP-enabled, and can send alarms to the iControl GSM. A specific
SNMP driver is available for each router type.
SNMP Devices
This broad category covers any hardware or software that is able to send SNMP traps. For each
supported device, an SNMP driver exists that enables some or all of the available SNMP
parameters to be captured and displayed in the GSM.
In some cases, iControl interfaces to a software application that itself is used to manage a
distinct set of equipment. The third party software, running on a PC or other hardware
controller, usually has an SNMP agent that can be configured to send status and/or alarm
messages. For each such agent, an SNMP driver exists that enables some or all of the available
SNMP parameters to be captured and made available via the GSM.
Special Devices
Where particularly complex devices are to be monitored by iControl, a Special Device service
exists to manage the flow of information.The status and alarm information from these devices
may use SNMP, HTTP or any of a number of other protocols. Custom drivers are available for
these multi-protocol devices, enabling custom GUI displays to be created within iControl.
