Discovery
This module is used to automatically detect active devices on the network by polling within a specified
network address range or community. Discovery sends commands out to the network and waits for
responses. When a device responds, EliteView queries its functionality. If it responds correctly, a
corresponding bitmap icon is added to the Discovery window.
EliteView Main Program
The main EliteView program provides the primary interface to all EliteView modules. The Tools and
Utilities menus provide access to nearly every module under EliteView. The main program also provides
all the tools you need to generate a detailed map of your network via menus and tool buttons. Moreover,
it supports MDI (Multiple Document Interface) which allows you to simultaneously manage several
submaps. After locating the required device on your map, simply double-click on it to invoke the relevant
management application.
Event Manager
This module serves as the management center for all events generated under the main EliteView
program, Log Manager and Trap Manager. In response to input from these modules, the Event
Manager can define and dispatch responses in various forms. Actions may range from sounding an
audible signal, displaying an on-screen message, logging the event into the report window, running a
user-specified program such as a beeper, fax, pager, email, etc., or logging the event into a database for later
analysis.
Log Utilities
The Log Manager can collect the current value of SNMP MIB variables at a specified interval. A wide
range of parameters on device status and network traffic can be sampled for selected nodes and stored
in the database for long-term analysis. This information is displayed with the Log Database Manager in
numeric form (including date, time and data).
MIB Browser
This module is a generic SNMP management tool used to browse device MIBs. By browsing MIBs, you
can send commands to get or set information defined in the MIB.
Information to be recorded into the Log Manager can be selected directly from the MIB. Moreover, the
MIB Browser also provides a convenient editing tool which can be used to quickly extract information from the
MIB and store it for future reference or prepare it as a technical report.
