MIMIC SNMP Simulator simulates 500 devices, and we discover them with
OpenNMS on a 4-CPU virtual machine with 12GB RAM, with this precise inventory
first router = 1
second level routers that connect to first router = 17
third level switches that connect to second level routers = 82
fourth level end systems of phones, Windows and printers = 400
A 16GB RAM VM is not enough for OpenNMS to discover 1000 simulated
devices. With MIMIC, you can easily test scalability of your NMS
deployment.
