Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and control system for monitoring plurality of equipment in industrial plant connected over SNMP based network. Each of plurality of equipment is associated with a server which is communicatively connected with client. One or more equipment which are capable of reporting monitoring objects are identified using a configuration file. Further, polling for monitoring objects based on capability data associated with one or more equipment is performed. Secure configuration of plurality of equipment in SNMP based network is achieved. Management of network traffic is performed. Unauthorized extraction of monitoring objects is reduced in the network.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and control system for monitoring plurality of equipment in industrial plant connected over SNMP based network. Each of plurality of equipment is associated with a server which is communicatively connected with client. One or more equipment which are capable of reporting monitoring objects are identified using a configuration file. Further, polling for monitoring objects based on capability data associated with one or more equipment is performed. By proposed invention, efficient and secure configuration of plurality of equipment in SNMP based network may be achieved. Also, efficient management of network traffic may be performed. Unauthorized extraction of monitoring objects is reduced in the network.

Abstract: A computer system for authorizing a user to process data received from one or more devices includes: an interface component for receiving the data; an application component for receiving requests from the user, the requests including one or more requests to perform data processing operations on at least a subset of the data; a data storage and data access component for storing and access the data; one or more evaluation components for processing the data; and an authorization component for granting or denying to the user access to process at least a subset of the data, a grant or denial being based on user specific data stored in a user directory for a registered user. The user specific data includes data on a geographical location associated with the user and data on a type of a device to which type the user is authorized to get access.
