"AdventNet Device Expert has proven a very useful tool for
Federal Signal, Inc. in managing equipment from multiple vendors
across multiple geographic locations," said Larry Ware of Federal
Signal Global Network Boffin, Ocala Data Center. "It has allowed
us to effectively manage remote device configurations and implement
effective change control for network infrastructure", he added.
"Taking control of the network configuration changes is the
primary challenge faced by today's network administrators, given
the breadth and complexity of the devices that are part of the network.
Even a minor configuration error could cause network downtime that
directly affects business continuity," said T. Subramanian,
Product Manager at AdventNet. "With the latest version of DeviceExpert,
network administrators of large, small & medium enterprises
are better equipped to face this challenge", he added.
Apart from offering multi-vendor network device configuration,
DeviceExpert provides notifications on configuration changes, side-by-side
comparison of altered configuration, detailed operation audit and
trails, easy and safe recovery to trusted configurations, automation
of configuration tasks, templates for commonly used configurations
and insightful reporting.
