E-Monitoring Microtic Network uses the Dude in Musamus University

Abstract

This study aims to carry out the monitoring process of wireless local area network (WLAN) microtics using the Dude application at Musamus University. It is expected that the monitoring results can be in the form of messages / notifications to network administrators. Network monitoring will be increasingly difficult if the computer network topology in an institution is very broad and complex. The network devices used in this study are the Mikotik operating system with the Dude tools with the specifications of Mikrotik RB433, The Dude server and The Dude Client. Based on the results of the implementation and testing carried out on the WLAN network of Musamus University, it was found that the use of The Dude Application can make it easier for network admins to know the position of the proxy router that has trouble, up and down on the proxy router. Another advantage is that the admin simply monitors the network on the server because if there is trouble or the system down the admin gets a notification in the form of an email from the Dude.
