Tool to organize your Business Network
Network Management refers to the set of activities, methods, procedures and tools that relate to the operation, administration and provisioning of networked systems. A usual way of describing a network management function is by remembering the acronym FCAPS – Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance and Security.
Functions that are done as a part of network management tools are made up of a very long list of services such as controlling, planning, allocating, deploying, coordinating and monitoring the sources of a particular network, network planning, allocation of frequency, traffic routing to support load balancing, cryptographic key distribution authorization, configuration management, fault management, security management, performance management, bandwidth management, route analytics, accounting management and so on.
The data for network management is gathered through a number of mechanisms, including agents installed on infrastructures. Years ago, network management was done manually because network management software was still unavailable. But today, performance management has become easier but more crucial part of IT.
