SNMP Platforms (cont.)
OSI’s NetExpert - They provide for proprietary management and have also implemented SNMP capabilities and CMIP capabilities for the platform and enhanced the rule engine. They seems to have a niche following from companies that need diverse integration.
Cabletron’s Spectrum - Thought of as a very jazzy tool, with wonderful user and presentation capabilities, not necessarily as popular as HP-OV or IBM in integration capabilities, or 3rd party application availability.
