SCOM2007 Trap Enhancer Service + Management Pack is Available!

Today JaxMP announces the release of our first tool targeted to users of Microsoft System Center Operations Manager 2007.  Our SCOM2007 Trap Enhancer is a unique tool that works with or without a System Center infrastructure.

When receiving traps from with System Center Operations Manager, the contents of the trap messages are very cryptic and usually require a manual reference to determine all the values contained with the message.  The SCOM2007 Trap Enhancer provides a way to capture the traps, re-write the contents, and then send that new message to local EventLog and/or a Syslog server.  It "translates" all the SNMP codes into very human readable descriptions.  While all descriptions are customizable, a set of prefabricated files have been assembled based upon the naming conventions and descriptions from within the specific MIB files.

The SCOM2007 Trap Enhancer runs as a Windows service and will process traps immediately as they arrive.  The TIF content can be updated using a simple text editor to manipulate the messages that are generated and then sent to the EventLog.

Premium Subscribers receive a complete set of Cisco Trap Input Files (TIF) as well as many Standard RFC compatible TIFs.  Subscribers enjoy the benefit of receiving all new vendor files and updates to current TIF content.  The SCOM2007 Trap Enhancer can be run without any Trap Input Files.  It just becomes a plain "store and forward" application without TIF content configured.
