IPPulse 1.65 is a Network Monitoring Software product from nwpsw.com, get 4 Stars SoftSea Rating, ipPulse is a Connectivity Status Monitoring Tool. Use ipPulse to monitor the up/down status of IP connected devices (nodes) on any IP connected network. ipPulse uses a variety of methods, including ping packets, tcp connects, and SNMP to poll and check the network connectivity of a list of user-defined nodes.
ipPulse alerts you to failures using a variety of techniques ranging from audible messages to email and pager notification. You can even control ipPulse remotely by logging into Remote Control using any Telnet application.
ipPulse draws on our extensive experience working with NetScanTools Pro. ipPulse is envisioned run unattended on a single workstation. The workstation running ipPulse would monitor the accessibility or health of the other computers that you have specified.

including ping, tcp connects, and SNMP to poll and check the network connectivity of a list of user-defined nodes. ipPulse alerts you to failures using a variety of techniques ranging
from audible messages to email and pager notification.
Supports a large list of target hosts entered as either hostnames or IP addresses. The list can be imported from a text file.
Polls the list on a cyclical basis with full control over the list cycle timing parameters.
Supports a primary and secondary test.
Supports standard Ping ICMP Echo Requests/Replies and automatically uses UDP High Port Ping under Winsock 2 for failed contacts. Primary test only.
TCP Port numbers for TCP connect tests are assignable on a per-node basis. Primary or secondary test.
Optionally uses SNMP v1 as a secondary test by requesting MIB2 OID interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifOperStatus for every interface found on the target node. Community names are assignable on a per-node basis.
Optional SNMP queries can be made for obtaining more extensive data from the target host. ipPulse includes a number of OID presets and 12 user defined OIDs. Example: you can obtain MAC addresses for every interface from an SNMP enabled host.
Multiple alerts and logging. Alert options include beeping your computer, playing a wave file, notifying someone by email, or paging someone using either standard numeric or TAP compatible alphanumeric pagers. Logging options include logging all test results to a text file, logging only errors to a text file, or logging errors to a dynamically created HTML page. Any combination of logging options can be used. Alerts are issued upon failures using user-defined criteria. Changes from a FAIL state to a PASS state can now generate email messages or pager messages.
