The bulk of your infrastructure expense comes after
installation in the form of maintenance and management. New problems, such as
capacity and performance issues, can easily arise without continuous, expert
assistance. When you outsource your network management and monitoring to Argus,
we take complete responsibility for maintaining your network at peak levels of
performance. Our experts continuously manage and monitor your network systems,
solving problems before they impact your business, and your internal IT staff
can stay focused on their core responsibilities.
Network Management Services
Argus Network Monitoring Center is staffed and
equipped to remotely monitor and manage your network systems and devices. We
are equipped to manage all Cisco devices (routers, VPN concentrators, network
IDS, PIX firewalls, and switches). We can also manage Check Point and Sonicwall
firewalls. Our monitoring center takes responsibility for OS updates, bug fixes
and patches, and changes made to the device (user rights, access rights, and
passwords).
Link-State
Monitoring
When you outsource your network
management to Argus, our certified network experts will monitor your
infrastructure 24/7/365 and rapidly detect, diagnose, and resolve any issues
that threaten or impair performance.
Our center provides active
link-state monitoring for any network device that is IP addressable and can
accept an SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) trap, including:
Incident Escalation and Online Report
The Monitoring center utilizes
GFI network monitor and its related software to escalate link-state disruptive
events throughout your organization as well as to the necessary carriers.
Escalation activities are customized to meet your individual needs and
organizational structure.
All
information is stored in a database from which you can generate logs and
historical data at any time through a secure portal/GUI. For each monitored
device, we provide comprehensive statistics on availability, status, and
detailed incident reporting (including time/date stamp and escalation details).
