Check out the z/IPMon "Tired of" Campaign Commercials!

Your organization has invested an enormous amount of time and money in building your mission-critical mainframe system. Over the last many years, you’ve also transformed your network to the industry standard TCP/IP environment. But despite the critical nature of TCP/IP to your mainframe operation, you’ve never been able to peer inside and monitor the status, be alerted of a problem, or even look back historically. Until now.

With illustro’s new z/IPMon™ for VSE product, you can finally See What You’ve Been MissingTM.


 

z/IPMon delivers all the functions you need to have a comprehensive look at what’s happening in your VSE TCP/IP systems, both on-demand or historically with z/IPMon’s exclusive Retrospect™ feature.

As the first company to pioneer and release AJAX capabilities for mainframes, illustro has developed z/IPMon from the ground up with a 100% Web-based AJAX interface, bringing a rich, Windows application user experience that anyone can use.. Even non-mainframers such as your generic network support team will be able to use the natural, simple interface. And all functions are available from any standard Web browser.

Multiple Function Views—And Alerts to Keep You In the Know

z/IPMon becomes the central nervous system for monitoring your VSE communications. You can see all activity for your interfaces, hosts, connections, protocols and applications. Select one of the interfaces and all of the data changes to show you its activity. Select chart view for any of the categories and watch your network traffic grow and shrink graphically. The dynamic tree pane on the left gives you another way to navigate through your system.

Setup dynamic alerts to be notified when something critical in your TCP/IP network happens, and you are immediately notified on the interface where you can drill down for more information. Or optionally, receive an email to let you know what's happened. You're always in the know.

Current Data, Shift Interval or even Look Back Historically

The Dashboard displays the current sample interval as well as a user defined "shift"  interval for monitoring across a time period. But looking back at past data is easy with z/IPMon's Retrospect Feature. Simply change the date and time fields to a previous point in time, and z/IPMon will recreate the data as it occurred. This makes it invaluable to understand why a particular problem occurred.

Formatted Packet Trace and Direct Command Interface

Need to drill deeper for diagnostic purposes? Then you’ll want to use Packet Trace View to look at detailed packet data. With a click of a button you can start and stop the trace and look at the data. We take all of the work out of the cryptic trace by fully formatting the data and color coding according to traffic type. Click on one button and print the trace for offline review.

With the TCP/IP Command Interface View, issue commands and get responses from all TCP/IP partitions.

No More Flying Blind

You've tried everything through the years to keep your critical VSE TCP/IP systems up and running. z/IPMon’s features and revolutionary interface ensures you can finally manage one of your most important VSE sub-systems without so much pain and agony.

It takes less than 1 hour to install and have real data at your fingertips. Come out of the dark TODAY!

  Product Features and Benefits
   
 
Consolidates and Presents All Important TCP/IP Network Activity
The heart of the z/IPMon interface is the Dashboard where an overview of all TCP/IP activity in your system is constantly refreshed. The z/IPMon Dashboard gives you an overview of all activity in your network, including full support for all hardware interfaces, applications, protocols, connections and hosts. Using the AJAX/Web interface, you can click on any specific component to drill down to more detailed information.
Monitor Dynamically Updated Live Data, or Look Back Using Retrospect™
AJAX technology allows for updates to be retrieved on demand in the background meaning z/IPMon is always working for you. Using the innovative Retrospect feature, you can request data from another date and time in the archive if you need to look back to a particular period of time to review the activity or to troubleshoot a past problem.
Dynamic Alerts Means You Know About Critical Events
z/IPMon works hard to keep you informed. The product features a robust Alert interface allowing you to set criteria to be notified of specific events in your TCP/IP system. Using AJAX, the Alert feature works in the background, dynamically notifying you visually when a threshold is reached. You can optionally setup an email notification for an event as well to keep you abreast of what's happening.
Packet Trace Facility for Deeper Diagnostic Needs
Need more detailed data of your network traffic? Using z/IPMon’s integrated Packet Trace facility, you can start, stop and view a packet trace directly from the AJAX/Web interface. And the data is fully formatted including breaking out all network headers, color coded by protocol--even giving you the ability to translate the data into ASCII or EBCDIC.  You can also print the trace either to a printer attached to your PC, or through POWER on the VSE system.
Direct, Integrated Command Interface for TCP/IP
z/IPMon provides one place for the full management of your TCP/IP environment. With the integrated Command Interface, you can issue commands directly to the TCP/IP partitions and receive the responses directly in the AJAX/Web Interface. A scrollable console log is kept for the duration of your session.
Supports Standard Interfaces to Security Managers
z/IPMon supports the RACROUTE standard interface so you can utilize any security product including BIM-Alert and CA-Top Secret. If there is no external security manager installed, z/IPMon provides a basic security management facility.
Delivers a 100% Web-Based Interface Using AJAX Technology
z/IPMon rich web-based interface is based entirely on industry-standard AJAX technology. AJAX provides a Windows-application like environment complete with drag-and-drop capabilities, context-sensitive menus and more—all from any standard Web Browser. z/IPMon takes full advantage of this exciting open standard, improving response time and usability, and allowing non-mainframe personnel to feel comfortable using the software.
Runs Directly on your Mainframe—All TCP/IP Stacks are Supported
z/IPMon runs natively on your z/VSE or VSE/ESA system in any partition, static or dynamic. No additional software is needed or is installed on the PC. Full support is included for all VSE TCP/IP stacks, whether licensed from IBM, Barnard Software, or Connectivity Systems, or even if used in combination.
