IPSWITCH WhatsUp Gold

What's new in WhatsUp Gold v16?

Wireless Infrastructure Management included (WhatsUp Gold Premium)

Allow monitoring of wireless infrastructure performance historically or in real time. It supports Wireless LAN controllers from Cisco and Aruba hardware vendors and allows you to receive alerts for excessive bandwidth consumption, signal strength degradation and access point saturation. Be vigilant of unauthorised activity on your wireless network and be alerted of rogue wireless access points. Know where your wireless users are at all times and how much bandwidth they consume on their devices with real-time alerts and scheduled reports.

Wireless features are available in WhatsUp Gold Premium.

Integrated layer 2 discovery, mapping, inventory and asset tracking

You no longer need to buy a separate networking mapping and asset tracking tool. Get rich functionality for Layer 2 discovery and mapping, port-to-port connectivity information, inventory and asset tracking directly in the WhatsUp Gold web console.

WhatsUp Gold scalability pollers and distributed polling architecture

WhatsUp Gold now supports up to 20,000 devices and 100,000 monitors per WhatsUp Gold server. So no matter what your size, WhatsUp Gold gives you a single pane of glass view of your entire infrastructure.

PowerShell/.NET scripting support for monitoring and alerting

New PowerShell/.NET support makes it easy to track your Active Directory, Exchange, SQL and other Windows services with direct access to Windows/.NET management methods and functions.

Support for formatted WMI counters and SQL query performance monitors

New SQL query and WMI formatted monitors enable administrators to customise their monitoring for specific business-critical data.

Alert Center thresholds based on average CPU across multi-CPU systems

Stay ahead of CPU-related device performance problems by evaluating average CPU consumption across the device rather than by individual CPU.
