[Figure: HP OpenView Interconnect Manager/UX, caption: none]
HP OpenView Interconnect Manager/UX is an enterprise multivendor network
and system management solution.. It combines the power of our SNMP
market-leading products (Network Node Manager, Hub Manager, Bridge
Manager, and Router Manager) to deliver a single-view management
system for global networks. The standards-based management technology in
Interconnect Manager provides the foundation for OSF/DME and makes it
the fastest path to full OSF/DME compliance. Our extensible design
provides a One-Minute Application Builder that allows you to monitor and
control any IP-addressable device. The X-Window/Motif-based color
graphic user interface makes the management of hubs, bridges, routers,
systems, and printers as simple as point and click. The Router
Configuration Management System (RCMS) takes the mystery out of internet
configuration through a color graphic back-of-the-box picture that
allows you to fully configure HP and Wellfleet routers. Our leading-edge
technology, found in automatic discovery, finds and lays out any
IP-addressable device on your network. This easy-to-use manager comes
complete with context-sensitive help and HP's unsurpassed leadership in
worldwide support and training makes it the intelligent choice for
integrated enterprise management.
Features
o Adherence to Standards: HP OpenView Interconnect Manager/UX not only
supports current network management standards, but also defines future
standards. The technology found in Interconnect Manager today provided
the basis for the OSF/DME platform. This will allow you to integrate
other vendors' OSF/DME-based management applications (as they become
available) with Interconnect Manager, making it the first and most
robust single-view manager in the market. Interconnect Manager
supports TCP/IP, SNMP/IP and is capable of monitoring various
protocols and LAN/WAN links. These include TCP/IP, DECnet IV, Learning
Bridge, X.25, XNS, IPX, and AppleTalk II.
o Extensible Management: The extensible design of multivendor
management allows you to create a simple network management
application to monitor and control any vendor's MIB-II and private MIB
extensions in less than a minute. Combining the power of the MIB
browser, MIB loader, data collector, and the One-Minute Application
Builder allows you not only to load, compile, and browse MIBs, but
also to build and integrate the application you created with
Interconnect Manager screens.
o Configuration Management: Combining back-of-the-router color graphic
picture with the ability to create, upload, modify, and validate
configurations for HP and Wellfleet routers makes internet
configuration as simple as activating an interface and accepting or
modifying parameters. Router configuration files can be downloaded
across the network using TFTP. Configuring ports, adjusting the
5
spanning tree algorithm, or setting thresholds for hubs, bridges, or
routers is as simple as pull-down menus. Any changes to the network
configuration, such as adding or removing devices, or disabling an
interface on a router, are automatically reported through the event
notification system.
o Performance Analysis: Tuning your network performance is based on
instant access to network statistics. Upon request, Interconnect
Manager is capable of gathering statistics from any device on the map
and displaying the information in a graph, table, or report format.
The product is capable of collecting and graphing statistics for MIB-I
and MIB-II, as well as private extensions for any vendor supporting
the concise MIB format.
o Fault Management: Continuous monitoring of any IP-addressable device
on your network shows you the real-time status of your
mission-critical network operation. Each of these devices is shown on
the automatically drawn network map and has a comment field displaying
whom to call, so you can start corrective action immediately.
Interconnect Manager is capable of monitoring status down to a
specific port on a hub or an interface on a bridge or a router. This
allows you to monitor specific user connections and to associate user
name and station address and IP address. Also, the System
Administration Management (SAM) allows you to monitor disk space
utilization and CPU utilization, as well as install and configure
software across the network for HP-UX based systems.
o Network Security: Interconnect Manager gives you various levels of
security. These vary from a simple encrypted password for every
HP EtherTwist device on the network to a sophisticated
unauthorized-alarm notification facility. For example, you may
restrict access to a hub using a password or restrict access to a
specific port on a hub by disabling that port and setting a threshold
to be activated as an alarm in the event of unauthorized access.
o Ease of Use: The various task automation facilities, from map drawing
to automatic alarm notification, combined with context-sensitive
online help and a Motif-based color graphic user interface, ensure
that single-view management is achievable without an extended
learning curve.
o World-Class Support: Selecting HP OpenView Interconnect Manager/UX
not only guarantees you the fastest path to full OSF/DME compliance,
but also gives you access to HP's world-class support and training.
With HP support organizations across the globe, you have access to the
services that have been rated number one for the past eight years.
