BMC MAINVIEW for IP

 Maximize the Throughput of Mainframe IP Networks

IT problem

Mainframes continue to grow, including continued growth of TCP/IP traffic.  With that growth comes increased complexity in terms of monitoring the different technologies associated with TCP/IP traffic.

BMC solution

BMC MAINVIEW for IP aids in maximizing the investment in TCP/IP. It proactively monitoring mission critical TCP/IP resources and prevents costly outages and slowdowns that are the result of problems associated with network connectivity.

Features and benefits

• Minimizes risk associated with network delays
• Aids problem solving by providing detailed statistics about TCP/IP stacks, routers, connections and devices
• Provides automatic pinging capabilities to determine availability
• Delivers real time and historical reporting to minimize future problems
• Improves network productivity with real time PACKET and SOCKET tracing

Key differentiators

• Provides IP Tracing Technology to display all the hops
• Offers PING to automatically capture response times for selected connections
• Delivers packet tracing  and EBCIDIC/ASCII packet data
• Offers IP Pacing for selective slowing down of non critical IP traffic
• Provides OSA card utilization statistics
• Delivers both real time and historical FTP tracking
• Provides a much need single system image of the entire network
