WhatsUp Gold

WhatsUp Gold

WhatsUp Gold is a family of widely-deployed network monitoring solutions from Ipswitch, Inc..

Description

WhatsUp Gold is used to monitor the health, performance and availability of an organization's network devices (router, network switch, firewall, printer, etc.) Linux, UNIX and Windows servers and associated applications and desktop computers. WhatsUp Gold can be installed on any system on the network and it uses a SQL Server database to store network devices and network configurations.

WhatsUp Gold is available in four editions:

# Standard is for single-location networks.
# Premium adds the ability to monitor the availability of application services on Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft SQL Server servers. Premium also provides support for application monitoring using Microsoft's WMITM, which allows users to monitor performance counter values and trigger alarms based on thresholds.
# Distributed extends Premium Edition to support networks that are segmented across multiple geographic locations.
# MSP gives managed solution providers the ability to use all of the features of WhatsUp Gold Premium Edition to monitor their customers' remote networks from a central location in the managed solution provider's network operations center.

There are two user interfaces: The WhatsUp Gold Console is a Windows application through which users can configure and manage WhatsUp Gold and the database it uses; and the Web interface which provides access to WhatsUp Gold functionality from a web browser via HTTP or HTTPS.

Device discovery

There are four ways to discover network devices with WhatsUp Gold:

# a network management protocol (SNMP) scan
# scanning an IP address range
# a check of the “network neighbourhood” as can be performed with any Windows system
# or importing a “hosts” file, which maps hostnames to IP addresses

Reporting

WhatsUp Gold generates a broad array of reports based on network and device activity logs. It gathers real-time and trending network information across all mapped devices for technical and business reporting. The reports fall into the following categories: System, Group, Device, Performance, Problem Areas and General. Users can define their own categories and choose which reports go into them.
