Augmented Category 6 (Cat 6A) is the new cabling kid on the block! Many once thought copper cabling would never support speeds above 1 Gig, but Cat 6A has proven that wrong and allowed copper cabling to live on. There is even talk that copper cabling may still be around when we reach 40 Gig! |

You can really improve your network management by implementing SNMP monitoring on your devices. Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used in network management systems to monitor network-attached devices for conditions that warrant administrative attention. SNMP is a component of the Internet Protocol Suite as defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It consists of a set of standards for network management, including an application layer protocol, a database schema, and a set of data objects.[1] SNMP exposes management data in the form of variables on the managed systems, which describe the system configuration. These variables can then be queried (and sometimes set) by managing applications. |
