What are all the Pieces/Parts?
- Cartographer GUI -- Graphical user interface application written in Java which can query Cartographer agents and display dependency relationships. It communicates with Cartographer agents via the XMP. The Cartographer GUI is not available via open source.
- XMP Jar -- Java support for XMP is encapsulated in this Jar file. It is available separately via open source for use in the Cartographer GUI, OpenNMS, and various other integration projects.
- Cartographer Agent -- an agent engine and plugins supporting various MIBs and functionality. The agent engine is written in C and is open-sourced. The agent engine is called xmpd. The agent engine implements a small core MIB.
- MIB2 Plugin -- a plugin for xmpd that implements MIB-2 RFC 1213 plus minor extensions. The plugin is written in C and is loaded automatically by the agent engine. The MIB-2 plugin is open-sourced. Plugins are written as shared libraries which are loaded at run-time by the agent engine or xmpd.
- Test Plugin -- a simple, example plugin designed to serve as a template for plugin development. It is written in C and is open-sourced.
- Cartographer Plugin -- this C plugin is the heart of the Cartographer project and implements the Cartographer MIB and accompanying functionality. This plugin is not available via open source.
