D-View 6.0EOL EOS
Description
The D-View® 6.0 SNMP Network Management System is a software tool that facilitates the central administration of a network with various SNMP-enabled devices. The D-View 6.0 Standard version (DV-600S) is tailored for networks with up to 1000 nodes. Flexible and versatile, D-View 6.0 provides network management to SNMP-based devices, including third party devices.
Automatic Discovery of Network Devices
Administrators can create a topology diagram to graphically represent
planned or existing networks with a simple click of a button. Through
SNMP or ICMP, a topology is automatically generated from your network
devices. Traps can be sent to remote network devices to obtain status
information. D-View 6.0 can recognize a device’s standard (SNMP or
non-SNMP), type (router or switch, wired or wireless) and network
domain. That’s only the beginning of the types of analyses
administrators can perform on all their network devices. Import a
bitmap of your building’s blueprint and display your network’s topology
on top of the blueprint to provide a realistic representation of the
network topology.
Batch Configuration or Firmware Upgrades
D-View 6.0 makes switch firmware upgrades and configuration changes
easier. Simply select the network devices you wish to upgrade and, with
the click of one button, upload your software. This feature is
especially useful in setting up a network. It is also useful for
maintenance, as a group of switches can be scheduled for the same
services: rebooting, port status monitoring, or enabling such features
as Spanning Tree or the D-Link® Safeguard Engine™.
MIB Browser/Compiler/Utilities
D-View 6.0 supports third-party devices as well. With the D-View MIB
compiler, an administrator can compile and load third-party MIB files
into D-View. In this recognizable format, D-View can then communicate
with the third party devices making them manageable through D-View.
Valuable information can then be polled to provide a complete status of
the switch. Even in environments with products from mixed vendors,
D-View can still provide a unified management platform.
Network Status – Real Time Management
D-View 6.0 is a useful tool for monitoring network status and
performance in real time. It allows trap and alarm notification to be
set, and can notify the administrator via e-mail. With the Event
Viewer, Filter Setting can extract the exact information needed by
event (type or severity), time (all or specific period), device (vendor
or type), and source. Trap Log and Filter can be set to facilitate
troubleshooting and monitoring.
D-View 6.0 can also present network performance in colorful bars and graphs, displaying easy-to-read charts with percentage of packet flow, types of packets, port flow, and much more, any time you want.
Microsoft SQL Server/Access Format Database
Completely integrate managed devices into your network environment with
MIB support. With the MIB compiler and network topology data organized
according to the Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Access formats,
you’ll have the option of editing their database using D-View,
Microsoft SQL Server, or Microsoft Access software.
