SystemEDGE can track the values of various integer-based MIB objects (counters, gauges, and so on) over time and store them for later retrieval. This functionality, commonly referred to as history sampling, can greatly reduce the amount of management station polling across the network.
Instead of having to continuously poll to collect the value of a MIB variable over time, the manager can instruct the agent to sample and store the values. The management system can contact the agent periodically to upload the complete history of samples. The agent continues to sample and store the specified MIB values even during periods of network outage when the management system cannot communicate with the agent.
