New Features
Express discovery
Are you new to network and application monitoring? Express discovery simplifies the process of setting up the most commonly used monitors (including email, web servers, and more) to get you up and running even faster.
New and improved SmartMonitors
ipMonitor’s list of SmartMonitors continues to grow with each release. The latest version includes a new monitor supporting Exchange 2007, a generic WMI Windows monitor, and an enhanced SQL SmartMonitor that supports individual instance names.
SNMP v2 trap support
ipMonitor now supports both SNMP v1 and SNMP v2 traps.
Network mapping
The latest version of ipMonitor auto-discovers network devices and creates rich network maps that can be customised to show the connection between elements or to add nested elements. Maps enable you to visually monitor network health with dynamically managed status indictors that offer drill-down capabilities for quick problem resolution.
Centralised dashboards
ipMonitor’s new cutting-edge dashboards offer centralized, customizable summary views that provide instant visibility into the health of your IT infrastructure. With support for drag and drop, it’s easy to add and remove elements from the dashboards to ensure you have the reports, statistics, and gauges you need - right at your fingertips.
SmartMonitor recommended settings
ipMonitor’s SmartMonitor technology suggests optimal monitors and data collection settings for almost everything on your network – saving you time and eliminating the need for you to configure settings by hand. During the automated discovery process, ipMonitor auto-selects the best monitors for each device and chooses the best “interrogation method' – SNMP, WMI, or RPC – to obtain the most accurate data.
