Abstract
An Internet-based method of and system for monitoring, configuring and servicing planar laser illumination and imaging (PLIIM) based network remotely situated from and using any Internet-enabled client computing subsystem functioning as the network management station (NMS). The PLIIM based network (i) has a plurality of nodes, (ii) is operably interconnected to the infrastructure of the Internet, (iii) has set of parameters related to network, system and/or subsystem characteristics of said PLIIM-based network, and (iv) is capable of performing a predefined set of object identification and attribute acquisition functions in a network environment. The method comprising using the NMS to remotely monitor the set of parameters related to network, system and/or subsystem characteristics of the PLIIM-based network. The NMS, its supporting client machine, and/or remote servers supporting servlets, analyze the monitored parameters so as to diagnose either actual or potential performance failures in the PLIIM-based network which might prevent the performance of one or more of the predefined set of object identification and attribute acquisition functions. By virtue of the present invention,…
