SimpleAgentPro (8.0) adds support for HTTP(s) and SSH |
|
MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, February 18, 2004: SimpleSoft, a leading provider of SNMP test and simulation tools, today announced the release of SimpleAgentPro (Ver 8.0), a network simulator that allows users to develop, test, train and demonstrate network management applications without requiring thousands of real hardware boxes. |
|
While SNMP is the leading internet standard for network management, management applications continue to utilize a variety of protocols to monitor and control networking devices. Telnet/CLI, SSH, HTTP, HTTPs, TL1, DH, TFTP and FTP are often used in addition to SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3 to effectively manage a multi-vendor, heterogeneous environment. Recognizing this need, SimpleSoft has continued to enhance its popular SNMP simulator, SimpleAgentPro, to support all the above protocols. |
|
"As Network Management paradigms and protocols evolve, we have continued to enhance SimpleAgentPro to make it not just a SNMP simulator but a true Network Management device simulator," said Sudhir Pendse, SimpleSoft CEO, "Our customers can now simulate large scale networks with thousands of network elements to carry out scalability, performance, disaster recovery and pre-deployment testing." |
|
SimpleAgentPro can dramatically reduce test setup costs by simulating thousands of expensive devices on one machine. Version 8.0 can quickly create new networks or learn from existing ones using built-in discovery wizards. Error conditions, trap storms, and syslog events can be easily created to test disaster recovery scenarios. Pre-deployment testing of large networks can be carried out to ensure that management solutions in place can scale up to handle the load. SimpleAgentPro can also be useful during development, demonstrations and training. |
|
AVAILABILITY |
|
SimpleAgentPro (ver 8.0) is available immediately on Windows, Solaris and Linux. For more information, please contact SimpleSoft at 650-965-4515 or visit www.SNMPtest.com |

SimpleSoft also produces the SimpleTester, an automated agent tester that enables protocol conformance testing of SNMP agents and SimpleSleuth, an SNMP vulnerability probe that quickly and easily tests SNMP implementations for vulnerability to denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. |
