|
Creating a Network |
By drag and drop of
devices from device tree. By adding bulk devices
of same type using network design wizard By adding bulk devices
of different device types,
at random Adding new devices
individually or in bulk, to existing network. For
SNMP devices, the IP address assigned to the device is added to the ipaddrTable.
and the unique name of the device is updated as the sysName
in the system group of RFC1213-MIB. |
|
Unique Value Configurations |
Option to configure unique OID values while
creating a network. The following options are provided:
By increment the given
values By assigning ipaddress/unique
name macro By assigning random
values. By assigning constant
values. |
|
Virtual IP Configuration |
Supports dynamic virtual IP configuration for
the simulated devices, in Windows NT, 2000, XP, 2003 and Linux/Solaris
OS. |

TFTP client and server
support for all the devices in the network. FTP client support
for all the devices in the network. Execution of file transfer
from GUI or at runtime using scripts or through RMI. Script execution on
file upload/download. Start and Stop of TFTP
server from the UI or at runtime through scripts or using RMI. Configuration of common
root directory for all or a specified range of devices. Copying of a common
file to all TFTP root directories. Stop the TFTP server
from the UI or at runtime through scripts or using RMI. |

Network Configurations |
|
Bulk Modification |
Modification of IP
address of all/selected devices in the network Modification of Port
number of all the devices in the network Modification of OID
values in all or selected devices present in the network |
|
Template based bulk modifications |
Modification of SNMP
and TL1 device values, Traps, Informs and Behavior Scripts. The modification
will be reflected on all the template devices in the network. Modification of protocol specific properties.
The modification will be reflected on all the template devices in the
network. |
|
Bulk Script Addition for SNMP Devices |
Configure the same script file to the specified range of IP address
in the network. |
|
Topology Editor |
Topology
Editor enables you to visualize interconnections between the devices in
the network. You can connect new devices or disconnect existing devices
in the topology. |
|
Logging Levels |
Configurable debug levels: OFF, Non-Critical, Critical
and debug |
|
Character Encoding Format |
Configurable character encoding format. When the network
is started, any string provided in the simulator, will be encoded as per
the encoding format provided |
|
Initialization of Trap/ Autonomous and Behavior Service |
|
|
RMI Support
|
RMI (Remote Method
Invocation) is implemented in the network simulator to control the simulated
SNMP and TL1 agents in the network from a remote client program. The RMI client APIs,
defines the methods in the network simulator, which can be accessed via
RMI from the client program. |
|
