WhatsUp generates performance-, event- or statistics-based reports that are easy to read and create.
The canned performance reports can be generated for hourly, weekly or monthly spans. Information reported includes availability and response times for devices, interface outages and downtime. Reports include detailed daily performance statistics on each device mapped within WhatsUp and are very thorough, citing stats most commonly used by systems administrators, including device utilization and response times. Administrators can also generate reports from the event log through the command line. Customized reports are available using a Crystal Reports plug-in.
WhatsUp Gold ships with a proprietary Web server for deploying network maps so network administrators can monitor their systems remotely. We set up the Web server and assigned users in a matter of minutes. For additional security, you can set the IP security function to grant access only to those in a certain subnet.
From inside the Web display administrators can add and remove hosts, change settings, and view event and statistical reports. Selecting the details of a device gives you extensive information about individual interfaces, such as response time, poll statistics and downtime. The Web interface's functionality is on par with SNMPc's Remote Console and OpenView's Launcher application but is not as flexible or easy to customize as Orion's.
Also included are basic networking tools, such as trace route, ping, finger, lookup, scan IP and throughput. The SNMP viewer, SNMP graph and MIB browser are nicely laid out and easy to work with.
