We just released a new build of Unbrowse SNMP R1.5.
Apart from bug fixes this release contains some new features:
1. SNMP Poller Charts enhanced
2. Remote Trap browser enhanced
3. MIB packages updated (All the latest Cisco MIBs (30MB), install in 1-click)
SNMP Poller Charts
Unbrowse SNMP already features a very powerful real time poll chart. You can track any number of objects in any number of windows. You can also track the same object from different routers in a single chart.
Figure : Float tiny poll windows on your desktop
The new release makes the poller even more powerful.
Float poller windows outside the Unbrowse SNMP main window. You can leave these little poll windows on the corner of your desktop while you do your other work. How to ? Click on the “Float icon” on the toolbar
Save/Restore state of poller windows : To start a poll you must first select an object you want to track from the walker sheet, then press the “Track” button. Once you have your favorite pollers up and running, you can select “File -> Save Chart State”. This saves everything about the poller including window positions, sizes, objects. Next time you start Unbrowse SNMP, you can just select “File -> Restore Chart State”. Voila ! Everything is back again.
Continuous tracking : Some users leave the poller running for weeks, but they are interested only in the most recent 24 hours or so. You can now adjust the time window. Select “Tools->Customize->Advanced->Walker”. Then adjust the “Poll Chart Time Window (hours)”. If you want to track only the most recent 2 days, set the value to 48 hours. If you want to track infinitely, set the value to 0 (this is the default)

Remote Trap Browser
The SNMP Trap Console allows you to passively monitor SNMP Trap Activity on your network. Unlike other receivers, you do not have to make any changes to your network elements. Just span a port and Unbrowse SNMP can see everything !!
The remote trap console feature allows you to use a web browser to remotely check trap activity. Unbrowse is installed in the data center and connected to a tap or a span port. This feature allows network admins to to view the traps remotely without having to make a trip to the data center.
Figure : Drop down lets you browse all traps
Faster loading : The previous version had upto 8 seconds delay while retreiving a screenful of traps. This was due to a problem with the way the stylesheet was being retrieved. Now, traps load much faster.
Browse traps : In cases, where Unbrowse SNMP has tens of thousands of traps, we want to show the most recent 100. We also want the user to be able to view the others. The new release paginates the HTML page returned. The user can select any page from the drop down list and access those traps.
