Comprehensive enterprise network analyzer, scanner and intrusion detection framework

A fulfillment server () for managing ATP data in a distributed supply chain planning environment receives an ATP request () from one of multiple clients (). The ATP request () includes multiple request line-items that each correspond to a desired product. The fulfillment server () then generates one or more component ATP requests () based on the request line-items and communicates component ATP requests () to at least one of multiple local fulfillment managers (). In response, the fulfillment server () receives component quotations () from the local fulfillment managers (), each corresponding to a component ATP request () and each including product availability information for the corresponding desired product. The fulfillment server () generates a quotation () that includes product availability information for all desired products, according to the component quotations (), and communicates the quotation () to the client ().

System and method for managing ATP data in a distributed supply chain planning environment

A system, method and computer program product are provided for reporting on network analysis. Initially, network traffic information is collected utilizing a plurality of agents installed in computers distributed among a plurality of zones. Next, the network traffic information collected from the agents associated with each zone is received at separate controllers. Next, a report on the network traffic information is sent from one of the controllers to a computer coupled thereto via a network.

Enterprise interface for network analysis reporting

A system, method and computer program product are provided for analyzing a network utilizing a host controller/zone controller interface. Initially, network traffic information is collected utilizing a host controller. Then, a predetermined interval setting is tracked, and the system polls for the receipt of a demand over the network. In response to the demand or the cessation of the predetermined interval setting, the network traffic information is transmitted to a zone controller over the network.

Enterprise network analyzer host controller/zone controller interface system and method

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for analyzing a network utilizing an agent/host controller interface. Initially, an agent is sent an interval setting from a host controller. Such agent is adapted to transmit network traffic information based on the interval setting.
