Proactive monitoring: safeguarding your network and saving costs

theGuard! NetworkManager monitors the availability and performance of all network devices (hubs, routers, switches, servers, and storage resources), and of all other SNMP-enabled, IP-based equipment. These components and their status are displayed in real time. What’s more, you can analyze data to spot long-term trends and optimize the performance of your network. And you can monitor network services based on protocols such as TCP, HTTP or FTP. theGuard! NetworkManager also features an integrated service level analyzer. This enables you to define tailored service-level rules for network services, generating considerable potential for savings.

One user interface for all components and vendors

Time is money: To perform their day-to-day activitiesquickly and cost-effectively, your administrators need a bird’s-eye view of the entire network – no easy task when each component has its own vendor- and device-specific attributes. theGuard! NetworkManager is the only software solution capable of detecting all network devices – from all vendors.

Devices and their attributes are depicted via a single, user-friendly graphical overview. This is made possible by over 280 integrated, product-specific modules (PSMs) developed by REALTECH, and regularly updated and enhanced. A list of all currently available PSMs can be found at: www.realtech.com/psm
