Key Benefi ts

Surveillance IP alerts you when any DHCP or DNS server is down or if there is a problem communicating with it.

Alerts network administrators if any QIP services/daemons fail, and can automatically restart them if desired.

Monitors DHCP scope utilization and alerts when a scope exceeds a user-defined threshold. Monitor for the scopes filling up, or identify underutilized scopes as well.

Searches through BIND logs for errors such as Rejected Zones, and reports the information in real-time monitoring windows. Searches through any ASCII file or log for key phrases desired, parses out data, and analyzes the data to generate alerts, perform automated corrective actions, and store the information in a repository.

Allows users to specify scripts to execute, and then parse the output looking for error codes. For example, you can execute nslookup to verify that DNS is providing proper name resolution.
