Re: SNMP script required

Hi Siva,

If your goal is finding an application to monitor the Alteon itself, I have 
heard people reporting good results from Nortel's own Application Switch 
Element Manager, or Nortel ASEM for short.  You can find some information 
about it on 
http://support.nortel.com/go/main.jsp?cscat=OVERVIEW&poid=16001 - and as far 
as I know (although I don't use it myself, we've got other systems 
monitoring our load balancers), it's free to use.

Have a look at it and see if that's what you're after?


Good luck!
