RealOps TrapBlaster is the industry's leading Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) A widely used network monitoring and control protocol. Data are passed from SNMP agents, which are hardware and/or software processes reporting activity in each network device (hub, router, bridge, etc. ) multiplexer See multiplexor and multiplexing. multiplexer - multiplexor and processing engine, providing secure, distributed, standards-based and completely fault-tolerant trap management. "RealOps values the feedback we receive from our customers and the latest version of TrapBlaster offers specific feature enhancements requested by our customers to address their ever-changing operations environments," said John Scott There are many people who have been called John Scott: Politicians
Red Hat Linux 1.0 was released on November 3, 1994. v8. Another key enhancement of the latest release of TrapBlaster lies in the expanded support for traps with object identifiers (OIDs) containing up to 128 sub-identifiers since some NMS See NetWare Management System. point systems send traps with OIDs containing more than the industry standard of 32 sub-identifiers. "Trap management is essential for secure and streamlined IT systems management. TrapBlaster compliments RealOps' flagship operations management Operations management is an area of business that is concerned with the production of goods and services, and involves the responsibility of ensuring that business operations are efficient and effective. technology, RealOps AMP(TM)," said Scott. IT systems operators are responsible for an increasingly large number of devices across their networks, and each device generally has a large number of objects associated with it. RealOps TrapBlaster is a software-based solution that receives, filters and converts SNMP traps across a wide range of standards-based protocols. SNMP traps generated from any device can be sent directly to TrapBlaster where they are filtered, converted or forwarded to any network management application securely and reliably. The new version of TrapBlaster can migrate existing SNMPv1 and SNMPv2 devices to standards-based SNMPv3 traps with strong authentication (1) Verifying the integrity of a transmitted message. See message integrity, e-mail authentication and MAC. (2) Verifying the identity of a user logging into a network. and encryption. In addition, TrapBlaster guarantees trap delivery and allows users to replicate traps for delivery to multiple network management devices. TrapBlaster can be used as the distribution point for all SNMP traps, enabling easy reconfiguration of management tools without changing the trap destination on devices. The new RealOps TrapBlaster provides: --Secure encryption of management networks --Full compliance with SNMPv3 --Fault tolerant and high availability Also called "RAS" (reliability, availability, serviceability) or "fault resilient," it refers to a multiprocessing system that can quickly recover from a failure. There may be a minute or two of downtime while one system switches over to another, but processing will continue. architecture --Extended management beyond current Network Management Software --Increased visibility to additional IT infrastructure --Reduced Mean Time to Repair (MTTR (Mean Time To Repair, Mean Time To Restore) The average time it takes to repair a failed component. See reliability. MTTR - Mean Time To Recovery ) --Secure interconnection of disparate networks --Support for traps with object identifiers (OIDs) containing up to 128 sub-identifiers --Optimized memory enhancements RealOps TrapBlaster will now run on Sun Solaris 7, 8, 9, 10 and Red Hat Linux 8 platforms. "TrapBlaster guarantees trap delivery and permits users to replicate traps for delivery across multiple network management systems," said Chris Schroeder, Vice President, Engineering and Co-Founder of RealOps.
