What is Lan-Secure Switch Center?
Switch Center is an all-encompassing software application tailored for the oversight and management of network switches, routers, and hubs from multiple manufacturers that employ SNMP BRIDGE-MIB, allowing users to effectively detect, oversee, and evaluate network performance and connectivity. This application enables users to connect through any network port without the need for remote agents or intricate configurations, thereby enhancing user experience. Its state-of-the-art monitoring engine is proficient at providing detailed network topology mapping and performance evaluations for both local and remote devices, including information on interconnecting trunks and VLANs. It supports SNMPv1/2 and SNMPv3 discovery methods, incorporating functionalities for VLAN monitoring and port mapping. The centralized software interface is designed to accommodate various levels of management, simplifying automatic network discovery and mapping while implementing OSI Layer 2 and Layer 3 topology monitoring paired with real-time reporting features. Additionally, Switch Center plays a crucial role in optimizing IT operations by offering a more transparent view of network interactions and encouraging proactive management approaches. Ultimately, this solution not only enhances operational efficiency but also empowers organizations to make informed decisions regarding their network infrastructure.
What is AdRem NetCrunch?
NetCrunch is commercial, self-hosted, agentless network and IT infrastructure monitoring software for Windows Server. It monitors network devices, servers, virtualization platforms, cloud services including AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, applications, websites, logs, telemetry, and custom data using technologies such as SNMP, WMI, REST APIs, and scripts.
NetCrunch supports 680+ monitoring targets and provides 270+ ready-to-use Monitoring Packs for devices, applications, and operating systems. Policy-based monitoring automatically applies monitoring settings, Monitoring Packs, thresholds, and alerts to matching devices and systems. Licensing is based on monitored nodes and network interfaces rather than individual sensors, checks, or metrics.
Real-time dashboards and automatic Layer 2 and routing topology maps provide visibility into network status and performance. NetCrunch supports event correlation, dependency-aware alert suppression, predictive thresholds, escalation, and 40+ automated response actions, including script execution, notifications, webhooks, and integrations with external IT and collaboration tools.
NetCrunch also provides hardware and software inventory, network device configuration backup and change tracking, bandwidth monitoring, and network traffic analysis using NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, and other flow technologies. Distributed Monitoring Probes extend monitoring to remote and isolated locations, while REST APIs support integration and automation with external systems.
NetCrunch is self-hosted on Windows Server and can monitor on-premises, air-gapped, cloud, and hybrid IT environments.
