Ho Brijesh, Let me introduce myself. I'm Rodolfo Carvalho, the one who wrote the code for UmitWeb. First of all, thank you for you interest in this awesome organization which is Umit. I'll comment some parts of your thoughts further in this e-mail:

This way we can keep track of several private networks (Co-locations, private data centers, VPSes, Cloud-based services, and so on) on just one centralized web-based service. Another feature that Luis didn't mention is that we can implement the "Topology" Tab from the desktop app, into the web app. >> >> As far as I understood in Network Inventory project to make it real >> time, the network inventory will first probe the application that we have >> developed and installed on host machine, which will then get activated and >> start sending services status to the server when any change event occurs. >> The server should be capable of starting and stopping such real-time >> capture.

It's a good idea, though. You know, nowadays we have HTML5 in our back, and we surely can implement features using local storages or even transient scans saved into user session, and this way we can compare two "open tabs" scans. as all modern browsers support tab browsing, we don't need to disturb the Front-end's view to simulate tabs inside the app. we could just run separate scans into separate browser tabs, and it should be OK IMO. I'm looking forward to extend this discussion with you, Kindly Regards, -- Rodolfo Carvalho Web Developer [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enable your software for Intel(R) Active Management Technology to meet the growing manageability and security demands of your customers.
