在您计划下一步的管理方针之前，请先认真的考虑一下：什么技术和工具是你可用的。很多的相互竞争的产品和技术，从价格昂贵的到免费的，从私有的工具到基于某种标准的，浮现在您的视野中。 Apr. 16, 2005 - By Bruce Boardman 对于中型或者稍大一些的企业来说，有更多用的起的解决方案。我们在赞颂Ipswitch, Netcordia, Neon Software 和 SolarWinds的监控功能是多么的好用。2006年SolarWinds 和 Netcordia 会增加网络配置管理在它们的产品中。免费的网络管理产品在2006年也将被人们认为是一种选择。尽管，Big Brother被Quest收购了；Nagios和其他的一些自由软件部落依然在提供一些有价的服务，freeware管理软件依然存在。特别的是，freeware软件有很好的可用性监控、性能和配置管理的功能。其他的一些功能，除了OpenNMS GNU project之外，像支持transaction applications、服务管理、中央集中的统一数据存储和分布式计算等功能是不存在的。OpenNMS已经追上了一些庞大的商用企业管理套件。但是，在2006年它做为管理软件市场中的一个严肃的竞争者可能只是表现。 Bruce Boardman, executive editor of Network Computing, tests and writes about network and systems management.

Before you plan your next management step, consider carefully what's available. A wealth of products and technology--from expensive to free, from proprietary to standards based--is out there vying for your attention.



	Introduction Before You Buy Don't Forget Freeware Monday Morning Quarterback

A? 16, 2005 - By Bruce Boardman

For the midtier enterprise, there are more affordable solutions. We've sung the praises of Ipswitch, Netcordia, Neon Software and SolarWinds for ease of use and monitoring functionality. Next year, SolarWinds and Netcordia will add network configuration to their products.

Freeware management products should be considered a viable option in 2006. Although Big Brother, for instance, was purchased by Quest, and Nagios and other freeware folks are offering support for a price, freeware management software is still free.

As for features, freeware has good availability monitoring, performance and configuration functionality. Other functions, such as support for transaction applications and service management, centralized common data stores and distributed computing, are nonexistent, with the exception of the OpenNMS GNU project. OpenNMS has yet to catch up to the large enterprise management suites, but it just might surface in 2006 as a serious contender in the management market.
