sMonitor

sMonitor is a dedicated network monitoring solution designed to give a "single source of truth" for the reachability of your IT infrastructure. The software is intended for both local area networks (LANs) and internet-facing assets, and it performs pings and validates TCP/UDP ports on user-specified computers, servers, and routing gear. When a destination host fails to reply, sMonitor launches a comprehensive notification sequence that includes audio alarms, visual prompts, automated emails, and third-party software alerts. It even supports legacy fail-safes such as modem and telnet connections in remote situations.

Beyond basic alerting, sMonitor excels at operational automation. It can run custom scripts to administer remote systems, allowing for activities like power management and system reboots in reaction to certain test failures. For in-depth examination, the application generates complete log files in CSV and HTML formats, which can be automatically uploaded over FTP to give a real-time web status dashboard. Whether running as a conventional Windows application or as a background NT service, sMonitor provides a lightweight, high-reliability architecture for IT professionals who require rapid, scriptable, and audit-ready network awareness.
