PerfAgent is a multi-platform dashboard editor for the SNMP environment.
PerfAgent offers a real time monitoring diagnostic panel and data collector interfaced with an SQL database for post-analysis in transferred time (trend observation report) of the network components status or of any information processing system. It uses an advanced user-friendly graphical interface to present an overview of the performance of the component. Pop-down menus offer an extended choice of operators to compute metrics. The administrator can create his own formulas in order to have his own view of the component. Thresholds can be set to create an event or an alarm whenever they are reached with a rising or a falling trend. The modules include Expression Editors, MIB Browsers and Compilers, Dashboard Editors, History Editors, Report Builders and Data Browser with an SQL interface. The reports generated may present trend analysis for either a single component or for a physical or logical group of components. The administrator can simply launch PerfAgent through a standard icon for the managed equipment or periodically from a scheduler process.
