Optivity Switch Manager features

Optivity Switch Manager is a configuration tool for troubleshooting and limited network monitoring and has the following features:

• A consistent look across the Solaris and Windows platforms.
• Spring algorithm that balances distances between devices and minimizes crossing lines when creating the topology map.
• Consistent graphical user interface (GUI) across Optivity Switch Manager and submanagers and single point-of-access to the submanagers.

• Network discovery that you can specify to be as large or small as you want.
• Ability to save the layout of a managed network for future use.
