Monitoring
Upon importing device topology
from
IP Availability Manager
, performs its own discovery on the devices to gather critical VoIP application information. It
models this information as logical topology objects in its repository, and maps the logical topology to the underlying physical transport topology discovered by IP Availability Manager
. then monitors the availability of the objects in its repository by monitoring the status of the managed devices and by subscribing to certain device, card, and interface status
updates from
IP Availability Manager
. It also monitors the performance of the objects in its repository through status updates received periodically from . uses SNMP polling and SNMP trap processing to continuously monitor the status of the objects in its repository:
- The uses a combination of SNMP polling and SNMP trap processing to obtain status update information for the discovered Avaya topology.
- The uses SNMP polling to obtain status update information for the discovered Cisco topology.
- The uses SNMP trap processing to obtain status update information for the discovered Nortel topology.
- The uses SNMP trap processing to obtain status update information from .The enablement packs apply the status updates to the appropriate attributes of the corresponding topology objects in the repository.
