Network mapping, as you want it
Network mapping: one of the essential needs for any network administrator, whether to identify where the problem is or for a quick visual inventory to identify what/where the device is.. Though an admin can get the picture from static network maps,
OpManager now has options to export automatic network maps to business views (custom map).
You can add custom background images to your exported network maps in a Business view.
In addition to all these, you can even export the business views or the network maps directly to Visio.

- A static map fails to scale with the growing network, especially in the SMBs, where business demands change quickly
- It is also ineffective for an administrator to refer to a static map whenever a fault happens in the network, one needs live maps!
- A quick means to come with a complete network diagram
- Scheduling of network scanning to include newly added devices in the network
- Ability to customize these maps (e.g. adding a background image)
- A live network map, showing links or devices having trouble
- And finally the reporting, for a particular network segment or a group of devices

Good post guys!
thanks for the info it will surely can help me a lot Cheers
Hi Kevin, all these are good to see but you are forgot the enterprise users who purchased the Opmanager Distributed edition user, Like me still we are working with limitations of the product where as other product which is meant for Small network growing more and more, we are unable to fix few issue, what about all these features in Distributed edition to have, regards Girish
Girish, Your point is valid and we understand your requirement. The new Distributed Edition release is scheduled (tentatively) for middle of Q4. The never-ending rat race to capture the new functionality of standalone models to Distributed model will come to an end after this new release (hopefully :-) ). i.e. there will be a common functionality release across all editions of OpManager. Having fingers crossed like you ;-) -Kalvin
