Management Operations
Iotellect Network Manager provides a wide choice of management and control operations a user can invoke interactively or automatically, say, in response to a monitoring event.
Generally speaking, control operations available for different types of managed items are countless. Depending on the type of your managed device, applications it runs and services it provides you can use a variety of control operations. These can be:
- HTTP requests, if you HTTP service maps certain URLs into some control operations it can execute;
- SQL requests to relational database management systems;
- SNMP traps or other types of unsolicited notifications sent to devices, if an SNMP device is configured to execute some action upon specific event arrival, etc.
This chapter covers common control operations supported by Iotellect Network Manager:
- SNMP management via SNMP set operations.
- Remote shell script execution using SSH.
- Network management actions like sending SNMP traps or Syslog messages, or remotely starting PCs via Wake-on-LAN.
These actions can be invoked interactively or automatically as, for example, alert's corrective action or scheduled job.
