sync modules

qsync for Alcatel-Lucent VitalQIP

Considerable additional value can be added to your exisiting network management tool sets through porttracker Sync modules.

sync modules, designed as 'plugins' to porttracker, feed porttracker information automatically into your existing network management systems without the need for scripting. This allows the augmented information to be accessed in a familiar environment by your operational staff.

The key to porttracker’s qsync module benefits is the link between the logical addressing contained in VitalQIP and the physical layer-2 connectivity that porttracker adds to this.

 

 

qsync Benefits

• Valuable connectivity detail to VitalQIP UDF object records, including MAC address, switch name, Slot/port, link speed/duplex, VLAN info, last seen times
• Real world validation of VitalQIP objects
• Searchable and Reportable porttracker fields in VitalQIP
• Provides accurate reclaim reports using ‘last seen’ data
• Enhances audit information by adding host detail for static objects.

Future sync modules are planned for other IPAM systems, Asset Management systems, CMDBs as well as generic database adapters.
