2. ZABBIX – Live DEMO
2.1. Introduction
RACOM has many years of experience with Network Management System (NMS) – 15 years ago
we started to build our own proprietary NMS called RANEC. RANEC is built upon similar principles like
today's NMS. It was optimized to be used within narrow bandwidth radio networks so the customers
could get all the valuable information about the network.
The NMS development and customer requirements to integrate our proprietary solution into their NMS
have led us to implement Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support for all the new
generation RACOM products.
Many RACOM customers use their own NMS, in which they need to manage our products. We can
offer them this opportunity with general SNMP implementation. The following text is intended for all
customers who are searching for the network management system applied to the RACOM products.
The text will demonstrate the possibilities of a standardised NMS.
Almost any NMS can be used for accessing SNMP values. The Zabbix open source monitoring system
was chosen as a demonstration of basic functionalities. We have prepared a Zabbix Live demo so
you can browse the Zabbix web interface and see most of the important features.
