Integral Systems Continues to Drive Down Network Management Costs by Offering Free Interface for SNMP-enabled Satellite and Tran
June 20 2011 - 8:35AM
Integral Systems, Inc., (Nasdaq:ISYS) announced today at the
CommunicAsia 2011 exhibition and conference in Singapore, that its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Newpoint Technologies, has expanded its
free driver program to include SNMP interfaces into satellite and
transmission equipment. The new version of COMPASS™ SNMP Manager
makes it even easier to manage SNMP equipment, virtually
eliminating the development time required to interface SNMP
equipment into a COMPASS Network Management System (NMS). Users
will also be able to auto-discover SNMP-enabled devices on the
network, quickly and easily import all or part of the Management
Information Base (MIB) and automatically build out device-detailed
screens for effective equipment management.
"One of the most costly aspects of maintaining a
network management system is the cost of building new drivers into
equipment as the network grows or technologies evolve," said Wally
Martland, President of Newpoint Technologies. "The high cost
vendors charge for this development causes many network
administrators to forgo managing any new equipment, eventually
rendering the NMS completely useless."
Previously, Newpoint Technologies offered free
driver development for serial and proprietary Ethernet equipment
when purchasing a COMPASS software license or for customers under
COMPASS Gold maintenance plans. With the new version of COMPASS
SNMP Manager, customers will receive the SNMP interfaces at no
charge.
Martland continued, "Our driver library has
blossomed to approximately 1,500 drivers. Even so, we still receive
new requests weekly. Customers will now have peace of mind knowing
that they will never face the high cost of driver development or be
stuck with components on the network they cannot afford to manage.
As more equipment providers move to SNMP as a supported protocol,
we want our customers to know that they will be able to manage all
equipment on the network, regardless of the equipment
protocol."
Integral Systems and its family of companies –
including Newpoint Technologies – will be exhibiting at
CommunicAsia 2011, being held June 21 through 24 at the Marina Bay
Sands Convention Center, Marina Bay Sands, Singapore. For
