ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
First of all, all praises to Allah the Almighty for His bless and guidance to me
throughout the Projek Sarjana Muda II (PSM II). For all His knowledge that revealed
to me, I am thankful.
I would like to express the deepest appreciation to my supervisor for PSM II,
Puan Azlina binti Mohd Sanusi. who has always respond to my question and her
willingness to share her knowledge and time to guide me. Without all her advices
and opinions the development of the PSM II would not have been possible.
I would like to thank all my friends who have help and share their knowledge.
They always willing to share and sacrifice their time for me. which I am very
grateful and many thanks for their concern over my proj ects.
Last but not least, I would like to thank my beloved family. They always
support me in good times and bad times, and always been my source of inspiration in
making this report and PSM II a success. Thank you for supporting me.
In addition thanks to Un.iversiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM) and all
who has helped me in any way to complete this report and PSM II. I really appreciate
it.
ABSTRACT
The main purpose of developing the network monitoring system is to ease the
lab technician' s job in monitoring the network performance. This tool can help
technicians early detect the network whether is up or down by location. The
approach used in this project is OOAD and the methodology is based on RUP model.
Development tool used for this project is VB.Net 2005. The expected result from thi s
project is to help technician increase their alertness in monitoring network
performance.
ABSTRAK
Tujuan utama pembangunan network monitor ini adalah untuk memudahkan
juruteknik makrnal melakukan kerja dalam pemantauan status rangkaian. Sistem ini
dapat membantu juruteknik mengesan keadaan rangkaian itu sama ada dalam
keadaan baik atau tidak. Pendekatan berorientasikan objek digunakan bagi aplikasi
ini . Rational Unified Process dipi lih bagi membangunkan aplikasi ini berdasarkan
kebolehan pendekatan tersebut dalam kaedah pembangunan sistem berorientasikan
objek.
Perkakasan
yang
digunakan
seperti
VB.Net
2005
Hasi l
daripada
pembangunan projek ini, diharapkan ia dapat membantu juruteknik meningkatkan
tahap kepekaan terhadap pemantauan rangkajan.
