NetWatch
NetWatch was the first SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) manager for NeXTStep. It supported MIB-II compliance (RFCs 1213) and contained comprehensive user-defined hierarchical topology maps with user-defined background graphics and device icons. NetWatch will automatically discover all devices in NetWatch and monitor routers, bridges, concentrators, or any device with SNMP capability. Alarms could be set for any MIB-I or MIB-II variable. All alarm events were written to a detailed alarm log. Actions resulting from alarms included: dial a pager, send e-mail and run a user program.
NetWatch was tightly integrated with Ridgeback's SNMP AGeNT, which enables NetWatch to monitor workstations running NeXTStep. AGeNT allowed the system administrator to automatically monitor and generate alarms for: a process dying, login status, swap file size, free disk space, virtual memory status and CPU utilization.
NetWatch was fully compatible with HP Openview, SunNet Manager and IBM Netview 6000 SNMP management systems, allowing seamless integration of computers running NeXTStep into an SNMP managed environment. Academic discounts were available.
