Introduction
MCT NMS, an network management platform designed to monitor and manage complex networks efficiently. MCTNMS has evolved into a mature and reliable solution for network monitoring and management. MCTNMS is a powerful, feature-rich network management system that provides end-to-end monitoring and management of network devices, servers, applications, and services. MCTNMS collects and reports on a variety of data from a computer network, including routers, switches, firewalls, load balancers and even endpoints like servers and workstations. The collected data is filtered and analyzed to identify a variety a network problems. The network problems can be of device failures, link outages, interface errors, packet loss, application response time, configuration changes, etc. The functions of a network monitoring and management system can be broken down into several categories, each of which performs a specific function.
Features of MCTNMS
vent collection and processing Event collection relies on Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps and syslog to collect network event data. Event processing is used to identify critical events, reducing the volume of alerts that network administrators must use to identify the root cause of the problems. Network change and configuration management: Network change and configuration management (NCCM) archives network device configurations and can be used to automate configuration updates. Configurations may be retrieved and updated using any the command-line interface (CLI),Configuration analysis identifies day-to-day changes and audit compliance exceptions where configurations don't match network design policies. Telemetry: Devices and monitoring systems may employ network telemetry to push network performance data to a network monitoring system. Some network monitoring systems and related network devices use representational state transfer interfaces to collect data using these same data formats.
IP address management IP address management tracks IP address use and controls the allocation of addresses to network devices. Topology mapping The topology and mapping function of MCTNMS collects device connection data to create physical and logical topology maps that form the foundation of basic troubleshooting. SNMP polling used to collect data on routing neighbors (Layer 3), switching neighbors (Layer 2), address translation tables (Layer 2 to Layer 3 mapping) and neighbor discovery protocols, like Link Layer Discovery Protocol. Digital experience monitoring Digital experience monitoring employs active testing tools, such as ping, traceroute and synthetic monitoring, to test that the network is working as intended. Combining application performance monitoring with network monitoring enables IT organizations to diagnose whether an application problem is due to the network or some other factor, including external networks.
