Data acquisition

Each probe uses a different method to acquire data. The method that a probe uses is based on the target system from which the probe receives data.

The Probe for Tellabs FOCUS NM2100 is a socket probe that connects to the Tellabs Focus NM2100 Network Manager. On startup, the probe opens a telnet session to the socket on the NM2100 machine and receives all outstanding events. The probe then waits to receive new events as they occur.
