Compass

Compass is an endpoint and user search tool that allows the user to

quickly locate information pertaining to an individual network user or

group of users across the integrated wired and wireless network

provides searches by user name, switch authentication, physical location,

MAC address, IP address, IP Subnet, and other parameters.

VLAN Tools

Console includes a set of VLAN management tools to simplify the system-

wide deployment of VLAN configuration and monitoring capabilities

Using

these tools a user can easily create VLAN configuration parameters which

may be deployed automatically to multiple devices or to groups of ports.

MIB Browser Tools

Console’s Management Information Base (MIB) Browser allows the user

to examine the SNMP MIB variables of network attached devices and set

the values of writable MIB objects.

Alarms and Events

NetSight provides advanced alarm management significantly reducing

problem response time. Any event can be configured to create an alarm

along with a color-coded severity scheme

Alarms may be configured

based on statistical thresholds

Alarm actions such as emails or other

notifications are completely configurable. Alarms are highly visible

including at-a-glance alarm status integrated with existing displays

and visual indicators in device status. Alarm information may be

archived, exported, filtered or searched

Alarm clearing can be manual or

automatic.

Ease of Installation

All NetSight client-server applications are installed in a single step and the

license key automatically determines which features are enabled

Product

upgrades to add additional functionality are fast and straightforward.

The

Java

-based NetSight client application is automatically installed and

launched by clicking on a URL and is automatically upgraded if not at the

correct revision level

This ensures that the server and client are always in

sync, and all installation and upgrades only need to be performed on the

server. The NetSight client supports single sign-on so users are prompted

just once for their authentication credentials across any of the NetSight

capabilities

Permission consistency also limits user access to only

authorized MIB information.

Database Backups

Administrators can schedule backups of the NetSight database for

easier recovery.

Failover

NetSight may be implemented in failover mode when it is deployed as

a virtual machine.

Leveraging VMware ESC and vCenter, an automatic

failover based on hardware failure is provided if contact to the NetSight

server is lost.

Deployment Flexibility

NetSight is typically downloaded and installed on enterprise server

machines. It is also available as an appliance or virtual appliance for

enterprises that seek the benefits of these other deployment alternatives.

NetSight Appliance – server with all capabilities pre-installed (activated via

license keys) for enterprises that prefer the easy deployment of an appliance.

NetSight Virtual Appliance – virtual appliance with capabilities

pre-

installed (activated via license keys) for enterprises who wish to further

leverage their virtualized environments. It provides all the benefits of the

management suite with the advantages of a virtual environment – simple

installation and cost savings from the use of existing hardware.
