New product lowers operational costs by efficiently automating
management of device parameters MELBOURNE, Fla., Nov. 8
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS), a leading
global provider of turnkey resource management and service
assurance systems, today introduced NetBoss(R) Agent Manager(TM)
(NAM), a new Resource Management product that extends the
capabilities of its flagship product, NetBoss Manage.IT(TM), by
incorporating efficient, policy- based automated management of
critical device parameters. NetBoss Agent Manager allows network
managers to establish the conditions that represent trouble areas
on the network, and continually monitors incoming events and
determines which management policies, if any, have been violated.
Operators are then notified of those violations through a set of
notification options including configurable NetBoss(R) alarms, SMS
or text messages, or email. "In an increasingly complex networking
world, successful and efficient monitoring and control of network
resources depends not only on processing events and alarms, but
also on evaluating device parameters in a timely manner," said John
Koenig, vice president of the Harris NetBoss business unit. "The
new NetBoss Agent Manager, together with NetBoss Manage.IT(TM) and
Harris Smart Agents, forms a robust, flexible, and efficient
Resource Management Operational Support System (OSS) of unmatched
power and effectiveness." Network Operation Center (NOC) operators
will find NetBoss Agent Manager an easy, user-friendly way to
organize managed devices on their network, and even managed
services into a set of simple networking policies. NetBoss Agent
Manager also gives operators dynamically updated views of detailed
historical information using powerful graphs. NetBoss Agent Manager
offers multiple benefits. Its user-friendly graphical user
interface (GUI) for rules creation enables operators and
technicians, rather than software engineers, to create policy-based
rule sets. This simplifies management agents and lowers operations
support costs. Once rules are created and activated, device
parameters supplied by Harris Smart Agents are automatically
evaluated to generate events and reports, lowering operator
workload, automating monitoring, and further reducing operations
costs. NetBoss Agent Manager is available now. Contact Harris for
more information via phone: 1-800-442-7747, or email: . About
