toptools User Guide IIS IPSEC IPX/SPX IS ISP IT Kerberos LAN LINUX MAC MEDS MIB MIF MIS NIC NNM NT WebAdmin Page POST RDMI RMON Microsoft Internet Information Server or Services. A standard for securing IP transmissions between nodes on an IP network. Internet Packet eXchange/Sequenced Packet eXchange. Routable Network and Transport layer protocols primarily used in Novell NetWare solutions. Information Systems. Internet Service Provider. An organization or company that offers a POP (point of presence) to computers attempting to access the Internet. Information Technology. A method of securing and authenticating a connection through encryption and certificate technologies. Windows 2000 authentication can now apply Kerberos technology to authenticate Windows client sessions. Local Area Network. A network that connects computing resources within a site or location. A freeware version of unix. Also runs on Intel platforms. Media Access Control. Generally referred to for addressing of network adapters communicating on the OSI Datalink layer. MAC addresses are designed to be 'unique' and contain a code identifying the manufacturer of the network adapter or interface within the beginning of the address. Because of their unique identifier, MAC addresses are used by ARP and RARP to identify IP networked devices within a network or segment. Managed Element Data Store. The toptools database of discovered devices which is ODBC compliant and resides on the toptools server. Management Information Base. A coded, hierarchical description of the SNMP objects that a device supports. A MIB is used by the SNMP agent and SNMP manager to communicate. In common usage, SNMP agents and managers (sometimes referred to as SNMP 'browsers') support standardized MIBS that contain information offered by most managed devices. Vendors like HP then extend the standardized support by creating proprietary MIBS to offer detailed management control of their products. Both the proprietary agent and the manager must be aware of the 'MIB". Typically, this is referred to as 'compiling' a MIB. Management Information Format. A standard description of management information used by DMI. Management Information System. A function or department that provides computer and information services to an organization. Network Interface Card. Also referred to as a 'network adapter', it is typically an expansion card that resides within a computing or networking device. It provides a physical connection to the network. HP OpenView Network Node Manager. A network management platform created and distributed by HewlettPackard. HP Toptools for OpenView NNM integrates toptools with NNM. HP and non-HP systems. Launches to the management page of Microsoft IIS if enabled and detected by toptools. Power-On Self-Test. A series of tests the computer performs when it is turned on. Remote Desktop Management Interface. A program designed by HP to enable remote management of DMI 1.1 agents on HP personal computers. Because DMI 2.0 includes remote management support, all recent and current models of computers sold by HP that support DMI (Toptools for Desktops 3.x and higher) do not require the use of RDMI. Remote Monitoring. An extension of the SNMP standard, RMON provides for use of SNMP in monitoring detailed network traffic information. A network traffic capture utility or network probe typically uses RMON to collect statistics and packets for later analysis by a central monitoring console. HP ProCurve and AdvanceStack networking products support and provide Extended RMON within the HP Toptools for Hubs & Switches applications. RPC RPO RWU 94 Remote Procedure Call. This facility permits management applications to reside locally (on the managed desktop) or remotely (on the management platform). RPC is used by DMI 2.0 for remote management. Remote Power On. A method whereby a PC (which has been powered off) can be powered on by a different PC on the network. RPO uses Magic Packet technology. Remote Wake Up. A method whereby a remote PC may wake up another PC on the network which is in suspension mode. RWU uses Magic Packet technology.
