1. Introducing Network Node Manager i

Network Node Manager i software contains a toolset to help you maintain a healthy network across your organization. NNMi can discover network nodes (such as switches and routers) on an ongoing basis, providing an up-to-date representation of the network topology. As NNMi maintains an accurate picture of the network, it also helps you handle problems through management by exception; that is, the ability to pinpoint network problems by using event correlation and root cause analysis (RCA). Unlike other network management software, NNMi applies sophisticated RCA algorithms to an accurate, ever-changing view of network topology to support dynamic fault management.
