Heard some rumors a few months ago that Jalasoft was testing their product against System Center Essentials…

And now “Jalasoft Readies Xian Network Manager Io for System Center Essentials” as they say.

Jalasoft Inc., a provider of advanced systems management solutions, is readying a beta version of Xian Network Manager Io for System Center Essentials. Xian Io for SCE extends the features and functionality of System Center Essentials to network devices, Linux and Solaris servers and non-Microsoft applications like VMware VirtualCenter, MySQL and monitors availability of any non-Microsoft ICMP enabled application.

Got some info from my Jalasoft-contct… sad to say, but Jalasoft Xian doesn’t support SNMPv3.

It is being researched but due to the big differences with v2 we didn’t implement it yet. However it is very likely that in our next version we are going to support this.

Well, since you only need read-only SNMP rights it’s not that big problem, but v3 is way more secure than v2.

Bernardo Sanchez has a few links from he’s blog to the new XianIO SMP Brochures…
