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.
- Dynamic system updates across submanagers, which allows you to simultaneously query your device in a submanager application as you view the topology map through Optivity Switch Manager.
- Access control and security using community strings.
- 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.
