SNMP Research and Interpeak Enable Network Management for Dual Mode IPv4/IPv6 Systems.KNOXVILLE, Tenn. & STOCKHOLM, Sweden -- First Integration of IPv6 Protocol Stack The set of protocols used in a communications network. A protocol stack is a prescribed hierarchy of software layers, starting from the application layer at the top (the source of the data being sent) to the data link layer at the bottom (transmitting the bits on the wire). with IPv6 SNMP Agent (networking) SNMP agent - A software process that responds to queries using the Simple Network Management Protocol to provide status and statistics about a network node. 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. Research International today announced a partnership with Interpeak AB, a leading provider of IPv4/IPv6 networking stacks and security protocols. SNMP Research and Interpeak have now integrated SNMP Research's EMANATE em·a·nate intr. & tr.v. em·a·nat·ed, em·a·nat·ing, em·a·nates To come or send forth, as from a source: light that emanated from a lamp; a stove that emanated a steady heat. (R) family of SNMP agent development tools with Interpeak's IPNET and IPLITE dual-mode IPv4 and IPv6 TCP/IP stacks. This combination creates the first integration of an IPv6 protocol stack with and IPv6 SNMP agent, and offers a market-leading solution for deploying standards-based IPv4 and IPv6 networking and management capabilities for embedded systems Embedded systems Computer systems that cannot be programmed by the user because they are preprogrammed for a specific task and are buried within the equipment they serve. . The products are available on most popular operating systems Operating systems can be categorized by technology, ownership, licensing, working state, usage, and by many other characteristics. In practice, many of these groupings may overlap. including Green Hills INTEGRITY, Enea OSE OSE - Open Systems Environment , VxWorks, Nucleus and Linux. "The combination of the IPNET and IPLITE TCP/IP stacks with the EMANATE family of SNMP agents extends the network management capabilities available for our INTEGRITY and VelOSity operating system operating system (OS) Software that controls the operation of a computer, directs the input and output of data, keeps track of files, and controls the processing of computer programs. ," said Dan Mender, Director, Business Development at Green Hills Software. "Our customers will benefit from these new capabilities as they are creating the next generation of embedded IPv6-enabled applications." "We believe in offering software from the best vendors for our customers to use our OSE operating system," said Anders Flodin, Director of Strategic Alliances at Enea Embedded Technology. "Interpeak and SNMP research are recognized as the leading suppliers of TCP/IP stacks and network management respectively, and we recognize the importance of their integration of IPNET and IPLITE with the EMANATE SNMP agent." The solution includes protocol support for sending SNMP traffic over the Interpeak IPNET and IPLITE stacks and SNMP-based access to the instrumentation within the stacks. The instrumentation includes support for standards-based management objects for both IPv4 and IPv6. Embedded systems developers may license IPNET and IPLITE products from Interpeak and SNMP toolkit products from SNMP Research. The companies have established a partnership model to insure that their mutual licensees have access to the integration code. For pricing and technical information, please contact SNMP Research or Interpeak. About SNMP Research The primary business of SNMP Research International is creating, licensing, and supporting software for the management of networks, systems, applications, and legacy devices. Our objective is to help companies deploy standards-based management with shorter time-to-market, lower costs, better fidelity to standards and interoperability with less risk. We provide innovative solutions for extensible agent, manager station, and mid-level manager implementations that are based on SNMPv1, SNMPv2, SNMPv3, HTTP HTTP in full HyperText Transfer Protocol Standard application-level protocol used for exchanging files on the World Wide Web. HTTP runs on top of the TCP/IP protocol. , and other protocols. SNMP Research provides products and services worldwide to end-users, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and ), value-added resellers, and system integrators.
