M1 - Monitor One
NMS (Network Monitoring System) for SNMP based IT infrastructure monitoring.


M1 is a complete solution for network infrastructure monitoring that supports multi-level mapping and a basic Service Desk functionality.
Smart implementation of Poseidon and Damocles products enables fast building of applications, without a need for detailed SNMP knowledge.
The M1 “Monitor one” network monitoring software is the primary product of the Netherlands-based FineConnection company.
- M1 supports all SNMP-compatible devices
- M1 can be ordered with an “X type” license for 20 devices (IP addresses), standard licenses work with 50 / 200 / 200+ devices (S/M/L type)
- M1 is robust – data are accessible through a web interface, stored in a SQL database, etc.
- Complete alarming management can be customized with external scripts (e.g. to send a SMS)
- Thanks to direct Poseidon and Damocles support, working with M1 is easy and effective (predefined detections, trends, etc.)
- Trial version of M1 is available for evaluation purposes (limited to 8 IPs and 24 hours of continuous operation)

Application examples
- Monitoring of operating conditions: Temperature, humidity, power status, equipment state and functionality
- IT infrastructure: Server room monitoring, monitoring of individual 19” racks, monitoring of individual servers and devices
- System monitoring: Monitoring information is displayed as a map (information terminals, ATMs, power supply systems, ...)
- Security: Monitoring of access to critical points of ICT infrastructure
Intended users
- Organizations: M1 is a solution for companies that need to monitor LAN, WAN, etc. over SNMP and cannot afford an outage or unreliability
- Operations center: Monitoring of networks, services and infrastructures enables centralized network management
- Service organizations: M1 allows flexible monitoring of services being provided, problems can be prevented or fixed in the shortest time possible
Basic features
Graphical network maps
- M1 can display multi-level interactive maps of network topology. Maps can be tied to a background image (city map, building plan, etc.)
- Maps are accessed via the M1 client application or the WWW interface
- Color-coded device states
Uptime monitoring
- M1 tests device status via ICMP (Ping) or SNMP every 10 to 90 seconds
- Non-responsiveness can be considered a failure after a defined time, or under specified circumstances
Network performance / SNMP monitoring
- Basic data about network performance, throughput, etc. are obtained by SNMP polling of individual devices
- M1 supports standard SNMP v1, v2 and works with MIB files
- Acquired data can be displayed as tables, graphs (2D, 3D), comparisons, meters, etc.
- Data are continuously logged into a SQL database
SNMP trap reception
M1 receives SNMP traps and analyzes them based on MIB files. Hence, polling interval can be increased while maintaining fast alarm response
- Received traps can be filtered and analyzed within input processing
Trend analysis, baselining
- Threshold monitoring provides a quick overview over thousands of input values and warns about suspicious changes without a need for setting all variables manually
- Smart detection aids the network administrator with built-in detection of common situations
- Trend analysis supports the use of M1 as a data source (CSV export) and as a front-end for a RRD (Round Robin Database) application executed externally
Alerting
- Alerting to unexpected situations, such as:
- Sensor not found
- Value out of range
- Value OK again
- Tolerance exceeded
- All reactions can be sorted by priority and time of occurrence, situations can be handled by Service Desk features
- Alerting methods: E-mail, SMS, sound, IP-controlled relay, external program / script
Other functions
- M1 Syslog can receive system messages and filter them with overflow protection
- “Event logging” stores special events and can export them to CSV
- “Extensive Monitoring” is a special feature that can alert to, for example, disconnected cables
