Chapter 4 - Manage the Computer About Managing the Computer in Your Network When you have multiple mobile computers and peripherals in your network, it is essential to have an easy way to manage updates, configure all the devices, and remotely troubleshoot problems. Intermec provides two free software solutions for managing your computers: • CloneNGo is a peer-to-peer license-free way to easily clone settings from one computer to another. • SmartSystems™ is a device management software platform that helps you manage your devices. • You can also purchase third-party device management software through a vendor. How to Manage the Computer Using CloneNGo Intermec CloneNGo is a software application that allows you to copy the settings and parameters from a master computer onto one or more client computers. Cloning reduces redundancy and error by providing an efficient and accurate way to copy and transmit settings from a master computer to one or more client computers through an adhoc wireless network. For more information on using CloneNGo, see the CloneNGo User Guide. How to Manage the Computer Using SmartSystems Intermec SmartSystems is a software platform that lets you manage all of your SmartSystems-enabled devices simultaneously from a central server. From the Intermec website, you can download this application at no charge. For help, see www.intermec.com/SmartSystems. The SmartSystems console displays all SmartSystems-enabled devices and peripherals in your network. Through the console, you can: • drag-and-drop configuration bundles, operating system updates, and firmware upgrades to multiple computers. • save configuration settings from a single device and deploy those settings to many devices simultaneously. • remotely change settings on the computer and peripherals. 68 CK3R and CK3X Mobile Computer User Manual
