Upgrading COI licenses to the new iSNMP solution by Kepware

Leverage a Proven Server Architecture Kepware purchased all SNMP-related assets of COI Software in September 2007. Next, we developed a new iSNMP suite that "plugs-in" to Kepware's field-proven OPC server architecture. The new drivers in the suite are, the SNMP driver for Managed devices and the Ping driver for Unmanaged devices. The OPC server which houses these drivers is Kepware's field proven KEPServerEX which supports the widest range of connectivity for OPC, DDE, and Native Interfaces. iSNMP Upgrade Options With the initial release of the new iSNMP solution by Kepware, the future upgrade path for all legacy iSNMP license will be to the new solution by Kepware. Upgrade Checklist: Download the Project Conversion Utility or the Quick Start Guide and the iSNMP Conversion Document to manually convert your project.     Evaluate your existing (legacy) iSNMP project to map out the conversion of the project file into the Kepware OPC server project format. What is the total device count for Managed devices? For Unmanaged devices?     Review the new iSNMP solution by Kepware to choose the iSNMP license type and form factor that best meets your application needs.   License Types: All license types support identical features so the only differences between license types are the number of devices supported and the price. The iSNMP server does not limit the number of OPC or DDE client applications. Basic – Monitor up to 15 devices ($895) from a single computer. Expert – Monitor up to 50 devices ($1795) from a single computer. Enterprise - Unlimited devices ($2495) from a single computer. Product Forms: The new stand alone iSNMP OPC Server by Kepware is based upon the same technology found in our Industry leading OPC Server, KEPServerEX. The OPC/DDE server features are identical between the new iSNMP OPC Server and KEPServerEX. In applications where only SNMP and Ping connectivity is needed most users will choose the stand alone version of the new iSNMP suite. For customers currently using KEPServerEX with licensed plug-ins for 3rd party connectivity, the iSNMP driver suite which plugs-in to KEPServerEX will be the typical version to choose. KEPServerEX is a single OPC server interface which delivers "plug-in" drivers for robust industrial connectivity to Allen Bradley, BACnet, GE, Mitsubishi, Modicon / Modbus, Omron, Siemens, User-Configurable RS485 & TCP/IP protocols, Yokogawa and many more. So choose the iSNMP driver plug-in suite for KEPServerEX when you also need other types of connectivity supported through a single OPC server interface.     Contact Kepware with your legacy COI license information to confirm the technical and commercial details to complete your upgrade.     Download the new stand alone iSNMP OPC Server or KEPServerEX   Note: All customers can download Kepware's new iSNMP solution and evaluate the fully functional demo mode prior to purchase. No additional installation is required to commission a purchased license.
