D-View 8 Network Management Software
Tanımlama
D-View 8 is a comprehensive wired and wireless network management tool based on the server and probe architecture, supporting the troubleshooting, configuration, performance and security of your network. It provides end-to-end business management of IT, scalability of system architecture, and accommodation of new technology and infrastructure while supporting the management of D-Link and third-party devices.
D-View 8’s standard and enterprise license options handle any network requirements, from SMBs to enterprise deployments. The standard licence can manage up to 500 nodes for a single organization on multiple sites. Enterprise license handles up to 5000 nodes and supports multiple server probes, local or remote, across multiple sites and networks.
Real-Time Network Analytics
Real-time network analysis provides insight into network operations, where network visibility is extremely important. With D-View 8 you can gain insight on device statistics, critical alarms of managed devices, running status of wired and wireless devices, CPU/memory utilization, wired and wireless throughput of devices.
sFlow Analyser (Enterprise version only)
D-View 8 uses sFlow analyzer to detect network anomalies in your organization, especially when the network is large and complex. It helps collect the sFlow data from devices and generate related statistics reports.
Role-Based Administration
Provides administrators with both the tools and the ability to grant access and privileges to only those features and resources operators need.
Intuitive Dashboard
The user-friendly dashboard can be customized to your needs for network device overview, device statistics, alarm statistics, cpu/memory utilization, response time, temperature and many more.
Centralized Reporting
Provides performance of administrator, operator performance, and options for resource reporting Configuration and configuration changes, network device and connection status, for network properties, Alarms, and the health of
network equipment. Report types are issued in real time and personalized easily. Device data is given for status, mark, IP address, MAC address, type of device, model, supplier, the location and many more.
Highly Flexible and Scalable Deployment
Depending on your network size, D-View 8 has you covered with a whole suite of network capabilities and deployment options.
Rich Resource Management
Provides the exploration and topology of the network, including comprehensive network inventory and precise representations of how it is configured. Sponsored views include both Layer 2 and Layer 3, as well as Like VLAN topology and the ability, like a dashboard homepage, to create custom views.
Inventory Management
Provides holistic management using a single pane of glass for multi-vendor devices. Administrators can access tools to control and monitor several facets of a network topology, IP, or custom view, the system connects devices to the
network and displays devices. Administrators may also assess a system’s health through the specifics of the device page, which reveals real-time data, summary information, connectivity testing, and more.
