Network Administrators using their everyday-use Internet Browser can securely access PerleVIEW and manage their Perle devices from their centralized server.
Automated Event Handling - Alert Notification via email, SMS text messaging and X
Alerts sent to PerleVIEW as SNMP traps can initiate a notification to designated support staff via email, SMS text messaging and/or a user X account. Information contains device name, IP address and a brief description of the problem. This enables rapid response to problems that may occur in your managed network.
PerleVIEW In-Band Management Tools
PerleVIEW provides the facility for users to directly access a specific device through their Internet browser. Both web and CLI ( Telnet/SSH ) based communications are supported via the browser. Unlike most management systems, a Java client download is not required. Simply run CLI or web management sessions via your browser. This enables users to use their troubleshooting tool of choice when resolving problems. As an additional aid, a local ICMP PING tool is also available.
