What are the Benefits?
- Network Configuration Manager (NCM) offers comprehensive support for major network device vendors like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Juniper, and more.
Multi-device baselines are available for identifying out-of-compliance configurations efficiently, allowing the use of a single baseline or multiple baselines across the network to monitor critical configurations.
Deployment options include both on-premises and cloud-based solutions.
NCM, built on the Orion Platform, allows seamless integration with additional network monitoring modules such as network performance monitoring, NetFlow traffic analysis, WAN management, VoIP, device tracking, and IP address management, all accessible through a single web console.
Device configurations are audited for compliance with standards such as NIST FISMA, DISA STIG, HIPAA, and DSS PCI.
SolarWinds Network Configuration Manager identifies IOS devices with potential vulnerabilities using the NIST CVE repository service and provides tools for managing investigation, remediation, or waiver of each vulnerability.
Automatic backups of device configurations are set up with the ability to roll back to the last known good configurations if needed.
Automated bulk deployment of standardized device configurations is facilitated by NCM.
