Selective Network Model

• Agents can be equipped with “selection criteria”.

• Only those components that meet the selection criteria are reported to the browser applet for display

  • Brings processing to device
  • Avoids needless traffic to the Browser applet of unwanted components

Examples :

• All components that support SNMP

• All hosts with CPU utilization > 90%

• All links with latencies exceeding x msecs

• All paths between x and y

• All available paths with a given QoS

• All components that provide a service (eg. ftp, web, database, registry)
