This includes providing custom monitoring for different brands of SNMP devices and monitoring Syslog mesages from devices that do not support SNMP. A class is created for each type of SNMP device based on Microsoft.SystemCenter.NetworkDevice. This provides a target for monitors and rules specific to each type. For devices that do not support SNMP, a class is created based on System.HardwareComponent. A device for each type of device is created based on this class that provides the target for monitors and rules specific to that type. Discovery for SNMP devices is targeted at Microsoft.SystemCenter.NetworkDevice since this represents network devices that have already been discovered. The name of the target is used to determine the type of device and which class should be created. Discovery for devices not supporting SNMP is performed from a text log that lists the Name, IP Address, and Type for each device to discover. This discovery is targeted at a proxy agent that is discovered from a registry key at HKLM\SOFTWARE\MPAuthor\NetworkDevices. This registry key must also contain a value called ConfigFIle that contains a path to the configuration file. The classes for the devices are all unhosted. Unhosted object are typically managed on the RMS, but the discovery scripts create a special containment relationship that causes the object to be managed on the proxy agent. Any monitors or rules targeted at these classes are loaded on the agent computer. The managed devices should be configured to send SNMP traps and Syslog messages to the proxy agent.
