Monitoring

Upon importing device topology from
IP Availability Manager
,
performs its own discovery on the devices to gather OSPF topology information. It models this information as logical OSPF topology objects in its repository, and maps the OSPF topology to the underlying physical-transport topology discovered by
IP Availability Manager
.
monitors the availability of the OSPF objects in its repository by:
  • Subscribing to certain device, card, interface, and network-connection status updates from
    IP Availability Manager
    .
  • Monitoring the status of the OSPF objects through:
    • SNMP polling.
    • SNMP trap message processing (optional).
    • Syslog message processing (optional).
