ManageWise enhances NetWare server management and unifies the management capabilities included with NetWare into one graphical user interface. NMS also integrates with IBM's NetView, including support for native NetView alerts and messages. ManageWise is an integrated server, desktop, and network infrastructure management system. It automatically discovers network devices including routers, hubs, servers and desktops, regardless of protocols. To obtain specific information and focus on your particular group, ManageWise lets you target a specific workgroup or domain.
Discovery can also run unattended or be scheduled for continuous or periodic updates.
ManageWise displays devices discovered in hierarchical, graphical maps. Internetwork maps provide an overview of the network topology, showing how Ethernet and token-ring segments are logically interconnected with routers. Segment maps display active stations on the network for a specific segment, and you can customize these maps to show the geographical location of sites and devices. ManageWise also tracks hardware and software loaded on networked DOS and Windows PCs, Macintosh desktops and NetWare servers. ManageWise automatically scans each node for component information, such as processor type, memory size and installed software applications.
