  • Method and system for setting expressions in network management notifications at an agent
    Patent number: 6757901
    Abstract: A method for generating notification based expressions includes identifying notifications supported by an agent and specifying objects for at least one of the notifications. One or more expressions are defined based on objects specified for the notification. The method further includes sending a list of objects and expressions to the agent to configure the notifications received at a management station upon occurrence of an event at the agent.

  • User-friendly interface for setting expressions on an SNMP agent
    Patent number: 6286040
    Abstract: Network communication between a management station and an expression management information base (MIB) on a simple network management protocol (SNMP) agent entails complex analysis and configuration during creation of the variables. In order to alleviate this concern, an interface is provided which accepts an expression from a user, parses the expression to determine if it is in proper form, creates SNMP set packets to set the expression on the expression MIB and sends the SNMP set packets to the expression MIB of the SNMP agent. Alternatively, a similar interface may be located within the SNMP agent or node, and requires no communication over the network in order to evaluate expressions.
