Introduction to understanding the assignment::
As
a network manager for a small/medium company, you are required to be
aware of the health of your LAN and help in taking decisions regarding
its growth, security and utilization rules by remotely monitoring some
probes. You started your Remote monitoring project by setting a number
of objectives:
1. The current utilization percentage of the bandwidth and its trend.
2. Create history reports
3. Know which conversations (communicating hosts) are generating most traffic.
4. Define the settings to capture a specific type of frames.
5. Set a number of alarms raised by some critical states.
6. Monitor the traffic for some upper layer’s traffic.
Task 1.a:
For
each objective described in this task, the students are required to
find the RMON group and tables (History group, Capture group, alarm
group) that will be pulled to get or set from it some parameters as well
as all objects that will be used. For some objectives, the student need
to set first the control table associated.
Just take a look at the group that we’re talking about the objective and see how many table in the group.
Task1.b:
The
students need to give an example for the selected objects with a clear
explanation. (History group, Capture group, alarm group)
Example:
In “hostControlTable”:
hostControlTableSize=10:
The number of hostEntries in the hostTable is 10. It is calculated by
counting distinct MAC addresses in the frames read.
hostControlLastDeletedTime=0;is
the value of sysUpTime in the System group of mib-2 at which a row in
the hostTable was deleted. If no deletion was done than this number is
set to 0.
For all other objects described in task a), the students need to provide an example and its explanation.
Task 1.c:
Explain five programs and comparison about (Network monitoring).
