MIMIC simulates 10000 devices in VOIP network

Avaya Visualization Performance & Fault Manager (VPFM) discovered a simulated network of 10000 devices (routers, switches, VOIP phones) simulated by MIMIC SNMP Simulator:

Cisco adds sFlow support

With recently announced Cisco support for sFlow it is now becoming a wide spread standard for network and data-center monitoring.

MIMIC NetFlow/SFlow Simulator simulates large network and data-center environments and is the only tool that can integrate SNMP and sFlow data to generate any type of traffic flow pattern.

Below we are simulating memcached statistics and displaying them in the Ganglia Monitoring System.

General availability of Windows Server 2012

Microsoft today announced general availability of Windows Server 2012:

MIMIC SNMP Simulator 12.10 is fully supported on Windows Server 2012 as well as Windows 8, Fedora 17 and Oracle Solaris 11.

How long does it take to double a network of 5,000 devices?

With MIMIC SNMP Simulator it was very easy to double our 5,000
device demo network to 10,000 devices. Starting the devices took 25
minutes, discovery through EMC Smarts took several hours.

MIMIC simulates 5000 devices managed by EMC Smarts

This post demonstrates how EMC Smarts discovered a large network
simulated by MIMIC SNMP Simulator.

The network consists of 1 Cisco router that connects to 11 other Cisco routers,
each one of them is surrounded with 30 Cisco switches. Then each switch
is connected to Windows 2008 hosts for a total of 4646.

This was a hand created network by Gambit's engineers in MIMIC which took
about 10 minutes to add and start.

Then, in SMARTS, the first router was provided as a seed address with
appropriate discovery filter. It found almost all of the devices in the network
in a little more than one hour.

MIMIC SNMP Simulator on Oracle Solaris 11 11/11

 FYI, we have tested that MIMIC SNMP Simulator runs on Oracle Solaris 11 11/11.

MIMIC SFLOW Simulator for data center monitoring

This video shows the use of MIMIC SNMP Simulator and sFlow Simulator for interoperating
with data center monitoring apps that collect sFlow statistics. By integrating the SNMP
Simulator with the sFlow module, any interesting scenario is easily created to verify
application functionality and performance.
