- Remotely configure, monitor and troubleshoot modems using industry standard SNMP over a LAN or across the WWW
- Attach Zypcom management port directly to 10Base-T LAN or PPP port.
- LCD for full control of modems from chassis front panel and VT100 command port for local or remote control of modems
- Embedded SNMP agent, PPP, Telnet and FTP servers
- ZSNMP bundles Castle Rock SNMPc for network discovery, mapping, real time monitoring, event action filters, alarm setting, threshold levels and tracking as well as short and long term statistics
- Graphical User Interface for point and click optioning, monitoring, and diagnostics of chassis and modems
- Built-in applets for chassis fault and performance monitoring, modem statistics, errors and protocols and utilization
- ZSNMP integrates with HP OpenView/Windows
Zypcoms Z3200E control card for the Z32CH chassis marries the SNMP
agent to the modem pool. SNMP management and embedded agents normally
reserved for smart routers, hubs or servers are now available for analog
modem pools. The Zypcom modem pool consists of a chassis and various dual
rackmount modem cards. Combine the modem pool and a Z3200E control
card and get a SNMP managed modem pool that becomes a full blown network
node. Manage this network node using ZSNMP PC software using a point
and click graphical user interface. Or compile the Zypcom MIB and manage
the chassis and modems using your existing SNMP manager software.
Network Computing rated SNMPc number one in a recent review of SNMP
network management software.
Manage Your Entire Network
The Zypcom's SNMP network management system (NMS) which combines a
Z3200E control card for the modem pool chassis and ZSNMP
software offers full functionality for managing Zypcom modems as well as
including management information bases (MIBs) for over 350 other SNMP
manageable devices.
Simplify Complex Tasks
The combination of a Z3200E control card and ZSNMP software
will simplify the most complex tasks of managing a small or large modem
pool. Copy modem configurations from existing modems to newly installed
modems. Schedule all modems for a firmware upgrade with a few clicks of the
mouse.
Know What's Wrong
With the Zypcom SNMP network management system you will know about modem
problems before anyone else does. Call the telephone company to fix lines
before your customers call you to complain. Busyout troubled modems and put
into service your spares from your desktop computer at work or your laptop
from home. Know when you need to add capacity before your users tell you.
Price/Performance
With its ease-of-use, SNMP compatibility, manageability, versatility and
graphical user interface, the Zypcom SNMP management system offers the best
price/performance ratio available today for industry standard SNMP managed
modem pools.

SNMP Statistics and Status
|
SNMP Statistics | Statistics are available using PC software
ZSNMP or other SNMP managers (H/P OpenView, etc.). The event log file can
be exported to Excel (Office '97) for statistical analysis and graphing.
The events tracked are: Number of ring-no-answers, incoming connection
failures, incoming connection completes, failed dial attempts, outgoing
connection failures, outgoing connection completes, number of modem
retrains, number of connections at various speed ranges (less than 2400bps,
2400-14.4K, 16.8K-24K, 26.4K-33.6K and greater than 33.6Kbps), number of no
error control connections at various speed ranges (less than 2400bps,
2400-14.4K, 16.8K-24K, 26.4K-33.6K and greater than 33.6Kbps), number of
error controlled connections, number of connections with data compression,
data compression efficiency, sent bytes, received bytes, sent data frames,
