Technical Specifications PHP 5.x or more emagic user interface has been developed using PHP framework. IT has a secure directly structure. Core files are hidden from public access. Database Server MySql/MsSQL / Oracle emagic can work with any of MySQL, MSSQL, and Oracle database server. It can be easily switched to any database just by changing the database connection string. Queries used in emagic are active record queries which are compatible with any of the above database. Perl or more emagic uses cron jobs for monitoring and watchdog purposes. All cron scripts are developed in Perl to achieve multithreading for fast execution of data fetching job from hundreds of servers. Generally frequency of cron job is 1 min. emagic also use daemons for collecting traffic data. A part of this daemon is developed in Perl. Traffic data collection and filtering also uses Perl scripts.

4 SNMP emagic supports SNMP version 1, 2 and 3. This makes it possible to add any device/server in emagic which supports SNMP. SNMP is used for getting bandwidth, performance parameters and required device information. SNMP is useful for fetching the data and updating it in RRD file for monitoring paramerers like BW, RAM, CPU usage, NW load etc. RRDTool There are many dependencies for installing RRD tool. For more details about installation on Linux please refer to the following link : All monitoring graphs are generated using RRD Tools. Cron jobs update RRD file at the pre-scheduled frequency. This process finally generates RRD file graphs. emagic Dashboard Rack Layout This is GUI interface provides an overview of the racks deployes. Users can easily deploy or add devices in the racks. Racks can be deployes based on parameters like location, zone rows. Device Console This module lets you directly access the server console. Device List This module presents a list of all devices in the emagic system. Different icons denote the type of device. User can filter the device list by hardware / deployment type. Component Stock It displays the hardware component stock report for all type of hardware including server, storage, network, rack, cloud etc. Users can select the device type/hardware and its available status (free/used) to display the report. Users can search for a particular component property in the report. Netflow Netflow function analyses the router traffic and generates the different types of reports. This includes reports on dashboard, applications, IP and conversations. Device Dashboard This module displays all the information related to a device. This information includes device details, network details, asset details, IP address, sys logs etc. 3/7

5 System Dashboard Provides a quick overview of the entire system and its various components. Includes information about power utilization, rack space, device deployment, ISP bandwidth usage, subnet report, logs, system alerts etc. The dashboardis fully customizable to include relevant, required information. System Requirements Hardware RAM : 2 GB (For 50 Interfaces) HDD : 10 GB Software OS : Linux CentOS, Ubuntu PHP 5.x + MySQL Fping RRDTool SNMP client Hping3 4/7

6 Subnet Report It display the subdivision of IP addresses. User can add a subnet by specifying CIDR format of subnet. If the subnet is routable, then IP from these subnets get automatically routed on Routers functioning in access mode. Activity Report emagic keeps track of each activity done by users while updating or creating any parameter. It also maintains the IP from where the user activity done. Admin user can search for any activity using filters like username, operation, IP, time span etc. Virtualization emagic supports virtualization Vmware, Hyper-V, enlight platforms where users can create and manage virtual machines from emagic. Cloud discovery operation enables system admin to cross check VMs on the actual Cloud and VMs in the emagic and also displays if any host or storage exits on the Cloud but not in emagic. If any VM exists on the cloud but not it emagic, then it enables to import that VM into emagic. Modules Benefits Inventory It provides dynamic information for IT inventory, Repeat generated for stock with availability status. Auto-discovery of all SNMP enabled devices in network, Auditing of stock, Server Assembly, Stock Report, provide a a complete inventory management solution. Service : It monitors services and ports. User can add as many parts and services using monitoring settings. Performance : Monitors device performance parameters like RAM, CPU, Temperature, Memory, Bandwidth, Max Bandwidth etc. IP Netflow monitoring It provides all information regarding IP allocation-subnet report, conflict in IP, Blacklisted IP, and IP allocation report. Give a perfect IP monitoring & management capability. Netflow function analyses the router traffic and generates the different types of reports. This includes reports on dashboard, applications, IP and conversations. 5/7
