ActiveXperts Network Monitor is a network and server monitoring tool that allows administrators to monitor the network for failures and irregularities automatically. It can monitor all aspects of your LAN- and WAN servers, workstations and IP devices.
For years, System Administrators, Network Operators and Helpdesk Employees have relied upon the power, flexibility and reliability of the ActiveXperts Network Monitor tool.

ActiveXperts powerful Network Monitor Engine technology has been adopted by several software companies all over the world. ActiveXperts Network Monitoring technologies is used by thousands of companies all over the world, making ActiveXperts the leading provider of Network Monitoring solutions.

The mission of the product is to maximize the reliability of your production servers and applications through the automatic detection and correction of problems and issues.

The product runs as a service on the Windows 2003/2000/XP/NT platform. ActiveXperts Network Monitor supports Windows, UNIX, Linux and Novell platforms. When problems are detected, youre immediately notified by network message, e-mail or SMS message. When a failure is detected, the network monitor tool will try to correct the problem.

Network Monitor Engine (a Windows service)
The Network Monitor Engine is the service that continuously monitors the servers in your LAN/WAN for availability. The service is also responsible for notifying, triggering actions, recovery and logging. The engine is multi-threaded, capable of monitoring many servers simultaneously. It can monitor various platforms, including Windows, Novell, Linux and Unix. It has many built-in monitor checks. Operators can write new checks in VBScript or RSH and add these to the configuration.
There s no agent software required on the servers being monitored; the monitoring service uses protocols and application layers of the Operating System to do its job.

ActiveXperts Network Monitor includes many built-in monitor checks. You can add new monitor check routines yourself, using VBScript. This is explained in the online Network Monitor VBScript Guidelines.

Network Monitor Manager
The Network Monitor Manager application is used to view the results and to make changes to the configuration. This Manager application allows you to visually monitor the network from any desktop PC.

Use the Network Monitor Manager application to view results and to make changes to the configuration

The Manager application can be installed on any Windows 98, Windows NT or higher computer (workstation or server), and has different authority levels. You can restrict help desk employees to only view results, while you can allow network operators to make changes to the configuration.

Web Interface
The Web Interface is a collection of read-only XML based Views of the network. They can be viewed by an Internet Browser by the use of XSL style sheets. This only requires one port on the firewall (default: port 80) to allow monitoring the network from a remote location. The Web Interface pages can be customized by editing the XSL style sheets. It is very easy to configure the XSL style sheets, for instance to change: colors, sorting, listed items, column and row sizes, and more. This is a unique feature of ActiveXperts Network Monitor, and very often used by the HelpDesk staff.
