Manually managing an organisation’s network can get tedious for technicians. Common problems faced by admins include:
- A higher chance of device misconfigurations occurring. This can lead to network outages and poor performance, negatively impacting the organisation’s processes.
- Managing device policies individually can be time-consuming and make IT admins inefficient in their daily tasks.
- Troubleshooting devices individually can be laborious with admins having to be on-site to resolve device issues.
How can your organisation avoid these problems?
With ManageEngine’s Network Configuration Manager, network devices can be managed with confidence. Network Configuration Manager is a multi-vendor network change, configuration, and compliance management (NCCM) solution for switches, routers, firewalls, and other network devices. Network configuration management (NCM) helps automate and take control of the entire life cycle of device configuration management.
Here are some of the benefits that come with Network Configuration Manager:
- Real-time alerting: stay alert on changes made to devices in your network from a single console.
- Compliance: compliance rules can be set for network devices, and flags raised for non-compliance. Devices are categorised as Critical, Major, or Warning violations.
- Troubleshoot efficiently: troubleshoot devices from any location directly from the NCM console, without having to be on-site.
- Configlets: configure a set of command templates to enable or disable SNMP for devices in bulk, saving time and effort. These templates can also be used to troubleshoot multiple devices at once.
- Automation: automate repetitive and time-consuming configuration management tasks by centrally applying configuration changes to devices in bulk.
- Identify firmware vulnerabilities: NCM helps reduce the impact of firmware vulnerabilities and upgrades firmware remotely to avoid potential, early stage threats from occurring.
