AdventNet SNMP Agent Helps Speed Development at Spotwave
Wireless
Leading in-building Wireless Coverage
solution leverages AdventNet's management software for rapid
development
Pleasanton, California, November 10, 2004
AdventNet, Inc., the leading provider of
affordable network and systems management software, today
announced that Spotwave Wireless has deployed its Agent Toolkit
C Edition in its SpotCell family of products. Spotwave
Wireless is a leading provider of cost-effective, indoor wireless
coverage solutions solving coverage problems for enterprises
across North America.
AdventNet Agent Toolkit C Edition offers
a comprehensive development suite of testing tools that are
intuitive and easy to use for building SNMP, TL1, CLI agents.
The kit can also build Multi-Protocol agents with SNMP, TL1,
CLI, and HTTP Protocol support in strict ANSI C language.
This makes the agent development process simpler and significantly
reduces the product's time-to-market. The run-time agent is
very modular, portable, and customizable. The source files
generated by the Agent Toolkit are ported and tested in operating
systems, and are fully supported in Embedded Operating Systems.
In addition, AdventNet SNMP Agents provide complete support
for SNMPv1, v2c, and v3 protocols, support for Master Sub-Agent
architecture, Traps, Informs, and Notifications.
"We selected the AdventNet solution
because it provided the only commercially available SNMP V2c
compliant agent that supported INFORM type messages,"
said Steve Allen, Director, Product Development, Spotwave
Wireless. "We were able to integrate the AdventNet agent
into our application and deploy the run-time solution after
a short period of debugging and integration testing on our
test platform. This was followed by a successful live trial
with our customer, which only required 15 minutes of testing
to verify all required functionality."
Spotwave's patent-pending SpotCell family
of adaptive indoor wireless coverage solutions eliminate coverage
trouble spots within buildings, providing cell phones and
other wireless devices with reliable, "always-on"
connectivity. SpotCell products extend wireless coverage into
areas that were previously inaccessible, and are cost effective,
quick and easy to install, and require no maintenance. Furthermore,
a range of comprehensive installation services backs the products.
Spotwave has been deployed in thousands of enterprise locations
across the country in all of the wireless networks of the
North American cellular and PCS carriers.
"Spotwave quickly leveraged the AdventNet
Agent Toolkit's development environment to develop an SNMP
agent for its hardware platform within a short span of ten
days. SpotCell™ products eliminate coverage trouble
spots and provide cell phones and other wireless devices with
reliable indoor wireless coverage," said Rajkumar, Product
Manager at AdventNet. "Our agent offered a customized
solution adapted to Spotwave's hardware platform and helped
reduce their time to market."
