What is the communication mechanism used in the application? Is WMI used?
Our message formats use standard TCP/IP interfaces so that they work on any network (Novell, Linux, Windows) and they are also routable over the Internet. Input (alarm) messages are sent via TCP/IP via HTTP requests, just like any web server. The hardware products use the same HTTP interface, but at the socket level. There are additional parameters used by the appliance products, such as software version, type of product, and so on, that are recoverable at the server. We use Win32 API, similar to the functions provided in WMI in Lynx key.exe and LynxPro.exe to collect the CPU Name and User ID properties for transmission to the server. ZFP shortcuts are created by VBScript and are easily modifiable by your IT department to fit your exact network setup, such as looking into active directory or the file system for additional information. Output messages are typically sent in SMTP (email), SNPP (pager), and HTTP (web-like) formats that are specific to the application. The API and message f
