Requirement

The application is for analyzing a network remotely. If a system is connected to this application the system asset such as CPU speed, hard disk details etc are send to a common DB and it is to be made available to be accessed from anywhere so that the network can be remotely monitored. Also the application must have the capability to send alerts after monitoring the network (System crash, Peripheral problems etc).

Working

A utility created using .Net monitors and reads the assets of the systems in network through WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation). These data will be fed to a central database by the utility. A web system created using JSP and JDBC reads the data from the database and presents it to the user in a user friendly manner. The web system will track the problems in the monitored network through the data in the database. The web system will in turn form displays and message alerts for the user using the application. The data based used was MYSQL.
