Has anything been added to AHM to address VOIP/SIP monitoring since these messages were posted? It's been 3-4 years now.

Actually, I would say there are a few discovery options needed: Discover only [tab] (i.e. ping sweep or AD query) Discover & scan [tab] (Netbios, SNMP, WMI, etc.) Discover & scan - new only [tab] (discover would verify existing, find any new, but only scan the new ones) Discover & scan s...

I would suggest for large networks establishing a distributed discovery model. Maybe use Remote Monitoring Agents to collect info that is 'pumped' to a 'discovery repository' on the AHM server. Or allow the admin to 'target' machines to do discovery on their subnets, or as part of their AD OU. (I as...

Network discovery?!!! It's been a while since I've checked into this forum, but I seem to remember requesting this a couple of years ago. :lol: In fact I was going to ask if you'd looked at implementing something similar to NMAP. Since you have a pretty nifty set of IP Tools already, generating a li...

You say "Active RMA do not require to open incoming port on firewall.", but that ignores the fact that the default outbound ports are not typically open in ANY enterprise environment. I have to answer a whole series of questions to justify opening up 5056/TCP or 5057/TCP. Of course you are...

WHEN!!!??? I think I mentioned AD user/group integration almost five years ago. Love the product, but I'd love it even more if this were implemented. And it's actually pretty easy to query AD for user/group info so this seems, on the surface, to be a pretty easy 'win'.

Why not use SSL for RMA and RCC comms?

Especially for RMA, since most firewalls are already configured to pass SSL traffic? It's a hard sell sometimes to convince IT Security to open up additional ports.

Does/can Active RMA post events to System/App event log

Is there a setting to turn system event loggging on/off for the Active RMA agent? If so, I'm just overlooking it. In trying to troubleshoot a network event on a remote agent host it occurred to me that it would be nice if the agent posted start/stop and especially commnication events (back to the Ho...

Yes, but you'll need an additional port for RMA Manager communication (default 5057/TCP)

This was asked of me. I'm not sure I understand the question either. I'm familiar with sync/async comms in serial environments, but I've never been asked this re: TCP/IP.

Percentile should probably be flexible. For some measures 80th, or maybe even 60th percentile would be relavent.

No, but it's simple enough to write a script to do what you are looking for. I have in-house apps that are dependant on multiple services, which I test for using a VBScript/WMI query. The beauty of extesibility! That's why I love this product so much. Tthanks for all the latest features & fixes!
