So is it going to be released? -----Original Message----- From: Mark Symons [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 10, 2004 7:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WhatsUp Forum] What'sUp Gold Pro
1) At install time you will be given the option to run an Upgrade. This will process your WhatsUp Gold Maps. The Upgrade will pick up maps that are specified in the configured WhatsUp Gold map directory, in "Load on start up", and in contexts. When it looks at the configured map directory it will process all three WhatsUp Gold map formats - WUP, XML, and INI. Bear in mind, though, that such a process cannot be psychic.. it cannot know which are your production maps and which your experiments. It will import everything. So, it will be worthwhile to perform a bit of a cleanup on the WhatsUp Gold side before running WhatsUp Professional install. 2) For the web interface, we support ASP 3.0. Your local Borders or Barnes & Noble should have all the documentation you could wish for.

At least if I have my version history right. That's because the Group Report "State Summary" is new, added since the CD was produced. The reason I point this out is that the "State Summary" report only took a few hours to develop. The whole idea with the new web interface is that users should be able to customise or add additional reports just as easily as we added this particular report. You can change anything you don't like. The WhatsUp Gold tags also allow for a lot of customisation.. but they are proprietary. You can't go to Amazon.com and buy a book to help out. Or use 3rd party development tools. Or call in a consultant to develop a report for you and have them already familiar with the concepts. You asked a couple of other questions. When running WhatsUp Gold and WhatsUp Professional together you will indeed have to resolve port conflicts. They can't both use port 80 as a webserver in exactly the same way that IIS and Apache can't. Reconfig is easy.. a quick visit to Program Options. Concerning "switching", are you referring to running WhatsUp Gold as a service and then having to stop the service in order to run the console? That is not an issue in WhatsUp Pro: the service runs all the time.

Personally, I'm not going to make any judgements one way or the other as I've seen too many demos of different products that behave entirely different than the demo'd versions (not just IPSwitch's stuff) and until I try it out, I'll ho9ld my comments. FWIW, it's good to see I can run them both on the same box without problems (how's the WEB interface between the two versions work out- do we need to specify different ports to use to access the two versions so so I can transparently switch them when the time is rigth and the users won't notice anything different in the way they access it until they get into the new WEB interface??). I'm also really looking forward to not having to shut down the WEB interface to run the console piece to fix the layout of maps with newly discovered devices! ------------------------------------------------------------ Bryan Harrell, SPII Network Infrastructure - Tallahassee Fla.
