Large networks with IBM Tivoli Network Manager

We have recently simulated increasingly large networks with MIMIC SNMP Simulator and discovered them with IBM Tivoli Network Manager.

First, a 1000 node network with 181 routers and switches, the rest end systems:

Time to discover the network: 32 minutes

Next, a 3000 node network with 525 routers and switches:

Time to discover the network: 1 hour 32 minutes

And a 5000 node network with 617 routers and switches:

Time to discover the network: 9 hours 24 minutes

Finally, a 7000 node network with 1200+ routers and switches:

Time to discover the network: 15 hours 31 minutes










 

MIMIC allows you to easily test scalability of your network management application.

MIMIC SNMP Simulator exports network with 20000 devices

MIMIC SNMP Simulator ran the 20000 agents on an Amazon Web Services (AWS) EC2 instance, and the devices were discovered by Avaya Visualization Performance & Fault Manager (VPFM) over the internet.

The network consists of about 20 routers, 1000 switches, and the rest are servers.

Avaya VPFM needed 12 hours to discover and layout the network.

Nearly 1 million interfaces are monitored.
