In addition to the printed documentation, N-Plex includes enhanced electronic documentation in Adobe's Acrobat format. N-Plex up and running in about an hour. The IMC can be installed and run remotely on any NT workstation or server, as long as the proper remote-access management agents also are installed.

A mistake in setting up the management account or directory configuration would obviously lead to a lot of problems later on. To its credit, N-Plex allows the use of an external LDAP directory.
