New Features and Feature Enhancements 19
■ Voice Wizard
Starting with 11.2.2 and with enhancements made in 11.4 for the PathBuilder
S400 WAN convergence switch, Web Link provides a new Wizard
configuration tool to aid in the configuration of the voice parameters. The
Voice Wizard eases the task of configuration by creating a dial plan that can be
viewed and later edited.

Autotargeting for SLA Monitoring/Remote Polling
In 11.2, Remote Polling was introduced which provided a mechanism to
periodically poll a list of up to 100 target devices. By pinging a target list of devices
for connectivity, logs could be generated and statistics gathered to measure
latency between devices and to determine service levels. Statistics could also be
gathered using the 3Com remote polling MIB (3com0019.mib), which can give
the statistical result of each poll. The MIB variables can be used with 3rd party
applications, like InfoVista to provide service level monitoring, analysis, and
reporting. A maximum of 100 target devices can be polled.
In 11.4, the requirement to manually configure up to 100 target devices that the
administrator remotely polls has been eliminated. Four predefined “target groups”
will be used:
■ RAS targets are automatically added when a RAS user session is established
■ VLL targets are automatically added when a virtual leased line is configured
■ Tunnel Peers including PPTP/L2TP/IPIP/DNL are automatically added
■ Static targets can still be manually configured, if desired
