And yes, SPM is much more powerful feature than a single software initiated test, as a port verification may need many tests from different parts of the net. SPM then maps them all into a single destination host alarm, or source - depending on how you want it to work. A nice thing with SPM is that you easily can built dynamic collection policies that gather all devices of a special type, which SPM monitor dynamicly using the SPM templates. Once the logic is created, Spectrum will create/delete monitoring dynamicly. This is speciall useful if you have a large environment. /Rob.

Cristi and Roberth are right, I didnt think about SPM at all. …but still you have to have a host (SNMP agent, or some network device) that will run the test that Spectrum SPM can manage and run the test from. If such SNMP agent will reside directly on SS server than we could say SPM + this agent can deliver UDP tests initiated by Spectrum directly. ;) Ales From: Mahdal Ales [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, February 18, 2009 8:54 AM To: spectrum Subject: RE: [spectrum] Ability to monitor ports Yannick, Ability of SPECTRUM to this kind of job ends in the point that it accepts traps or imported status data from a script or other tools that would do such a check. If you program a script by yourself or use Nagios or other tools to check the port as you want is up to you, but Spectrum will not help here.

The scenario we have is a firewall and the device on the other end only has access to port 3389 (RDP), no SNMP or ICMP. Was wondering if there is any way Spectrum is able to query the device only on port 3389. If the port goes down to generate a critical alarm. Any help is greatly appreciated.
