Koshna SNMP JMX Toolkit  _{Includes JMX(TM) Technology}

Overview

The Koshna SNMP JMX Toolkit provides a generic SNMP adaptor for JMX & tools for developing JMX agents.

The SNMP adaptor for JMX is generic and can be configured at run time with the protocol mapping information of the JMX MBeans using a XML map file.

The SNMP adaptor can work with any JMX implementation like the MX4J or the JMX reference implementation from sun

The toolkit is designed to aid in implementations that start with a SNMP MIB and implement a JMX agent representing the MIB and also to aid in implementations where the JMX MBeans are designed & the JMX agent is implemented first and then a MIB is designed to provide access to the existing MBeans through SNMP.See Usage for more information

The toolkit includes a SNMP stack that supports SNMP v1, v2c & v3 versions.

The toolkit also provides a GUI based MBean stub code generator tool that can be used to generate JMX MBeans representing the groups, tables and also the classes representing the enumerated data types defined in the MIB.

The toolkit also includes a full featured MIB browser with excellent debug capabilities to dump the sent/received SNMP packets that can be used to test/debug the JMX agents using SNMP.

Key features
