NetBoss^® Manage.IT

The NetBoss Manage.IT application suite enables reliable, carrier-class, scalable resource management solutions for any size network and any application. Manage.IT helps network managers effectively predict and isolate network issues, reduce downtime and provide a higher quality of service to customers—all while controlling cost of ownership.

Featuring open, standards-based architecture and an extensive library of Harris Stratex smart agents, Manage.IT enables integration of existing element-manager systems and databases into a single fault management framework, allowing network operators to more closely align network operations to business objectives.

Applications and utilities in the Manage.IT family include:

• Build.IT. Our large array of ready-to-use smart agents provides specific interfaces to network elements, element and network managers, applications, and operation support systems. The Build.IT application lets you quickly and easily extend your current smart agents or create new, customized ones using an intuitive graphical interface.
• Root Cause Analysis. To manage today's complex networks, you have to be able to effectively analyze data from many sources. The optional Root Cause Analysis utility isolates network issues and helps ensure maximum network availability.
• Agent Manager. With the increasing cost of running a network and growing customer demand for less expensive, more reliable services, operators need to be more efficient and responsive to network issues. Agent Manager lets you view attributes across multiple network elements and domains and define rules and policies for triggering alarms. These capabilities speed fault isolation and reduce outage duration and operating costs.
• Reporter. The key to successful management of an enterprise-wide network is information—large quantities of reliable data delivered in formats that allow you to make decisions quickly and effectively. NetBoss Reporter is a multi-output, Web-based system for sophisticated reporting, analysis and information delivery.
• Performance Reporting and Management. Efficient management of an enterprise-wide network requires continuous performance reporting. The Performance Reporting and Management utility is designed to ensure proactive identification and isolation of potential network problems.
• Executive Dashboard. As a network operator, you are committed to quality of service at the highest level. Executive Dashboard helps you deliver top-tier service quality by quickly and clearly conveying critical information—such as network status and usage—to the busy managers and executives in your organization.
