Software to check Monitor Internet Protocols

Standard Checks

Monitor Internet Protocols

• DNS - Monitors if a DNS server is working well by reading a particular 'A' record on the DNS server and verifying the result. More...
• FTP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check the availability of FTP sites. With the FTP check, you can check for a file in one of the subdirectories on the FTP server, and even check for a specific pattern in the file. More...
• HTTP(s) - ActiveXperts Network Monitor allows you to check the availability of HTTP and HTTPs sites, on default ports (i.e.: 80 and 443) or on alternate ports. If the HTTP(s) server is not directly accessible, you can configure ActiveXperts Network Monitor to go through a Proxy server to access the particular HTTP(s) server, even passing credentials for that Proxy server (to be able to make use of the Proxy). Additionally, you can pass credentials (username and password) to access the actual HTTP(s) site if required. ActiveXperts Network Monitor supports web site content checking; contents of web sites can be searched for text patterns (including tags). More...
• ICMP Ping - ICMP Ping checks a remote host for availability. Local hosts should normally respond to ping requests within milliseconds. However, on a very congested network it may take up to 3 seconds or longer to receive an echo packet from the remote host. If the timeout is set too low under these conditions, it will appear that the remote host is not reachable (which is almost the truth). ActiveXperts Network Monitor checks servers for availability by sending ICMP Echo commands and wait for the responds. An ICMP timeout failure doesn't necessarily mean that the remote host is actually functioning beyond its ability to echo packets. More...
• IMAP MailServer - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check IMAP mail servers by establishing a connection on the remote IMAP port (usually port 143) and do a handshake. By handshaking, ActiveXperts Network Monitor can verify that the remote server's IMAP protocol is working well. More...
• LDAP - LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is a protocol for querying (and modifying) directory services like Microsoft Active Directory and Novell Netware. More...
• NNTP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check NNTP news servers by establishing a connection on the remote TCP port (usually port 119) and do a handshake. By handshaking, ActiveXperts Network Monitor can verify that the remote server's NNTP protocol is working well. More...
• NTP - The NTP protocol is the protocol used to synchronize times between workstations and servers, and external time sources. ActiveXperts Network Monitor uses the IP based NTP protocol to check availability of internal and external time sources. More...
• POP3 - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check POP3 mail servers by establishing a connection on the remote TCP port (usually port 110) and do a handshake. By handshaking, ActiveXperts Network Monitor can verify that the remote server's POP3 protocol is working well. More...
• RADIUS - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) servers by authenticating a user against the remote RADIUS server using a username, password and RADIUS secret. More...
• SFTP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check the availability of secure SFTP sites. SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) allows secure network file transfer over an insecure network, such as the Internet. More...
• SMTP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check SMTP mail servers by establishing a connection on the remote TCP port (usually port 25) and do a handshake. By handshaking, ActiveXperts Network Monitor can verify that the remote server's SMTP protocol is working well. More...
• SMPP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check SMPP (Short Message Peer-to-Peer) servers by logging in using credentials provided by the SMPP SMSC. More...
• SMTP/POP3 Roundtrip - Monitors if an e-mail service is working properly by sending a test e-mail message through an SMTP server and verifying that it has been delivered to the recipient's mailbox. More...
• SNMP GET - SNMP means: Simple Network Management Protocol. The SNMP GET message allows the Network Monitor Engine to request information about a specific variable on a remote computer or device. The agent, upon receiving a GET message, will issue a GET-RESPONSE message to the Network Monitor Engine with either the information requested or an error indication as to why the request cannot be processed. More...
• SNMP Traps - The SNMP Trap Receive check listens for real-time network traps for processing. An SNMP Trap Receive check works different than other checks in Network Monitor: the SNMP Trap Receive check is event-driven. The check is not executed at timed intervals, but is triggered as soon as a new trap is received.  More...
• TCP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check local- or remote servers by challenging a specific port. It makes a connection to it, and performs a challenge/respond (by sending a sequence of bytes to it, wait for the respond and analyzing the received information). More...
• TFTP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check the availability of TFTP hosts. With the FTP check, you can check for a file in one of the subdirectories on the TFTP host, and even check for a specific pattern in the file. More...
• TraceRoute - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check the route packets take from an IP network on their way to a given host. If a hop does not reply in a timely manner, an error is reported. You can allow/disallow particular hops on the route. More...
