Advanced Out-of-Band Technical Fact Sheet
Remote Environment Management
f
Support scheduling a job to update a startup or running configuration file for one or multiple devices across the network,
where the device configurations to be updated are specified through advanced filtering that operates on hierarchical
groups, Local Managers, managed devices, device make, device model, OS name and the OS version
f
Support scheduling a job to upgrade the operating system for one or multiple devices across the network where the
devices to be upgraded are specified through advanced filtering that operates on hierarchical groups, Local Managers,
managed devices, device make, device model, OS name and OS version
f
Display configuration changes made during a user session to a managed device when the session is complete so the
user can confirm the changes are accurate and commit the changes.
f
Automatic rollback of configuration changes made during a user terminal session to a managed device if the session
times out and user does not commit changes
f
Display configuration changes made during a user terminal session to a managed device and enable the user to
automatically rollback the changes
f
Support bare metal restore on a replacement device by installing OS and configuration files
f
Support the ability to independently recover a configuration on a managed device for the case where the configuration is
corrupted
EASE OF USE AND DEPLOYMENT
f
Zero Touch Local Manager Deployment – New, factory fresh Local Managers can now use DHCP and/or DNS to
automatically find and register themselves with the Uplogix Control Center (UCC), allowing network engineers to easily
provision them via the UCC, eliminating the need to stage configurations or send technical personal to remote sites for
deployment purposes.
f
Automatic Configuration of NTP and DNS Servers via DHCP – The Uplogix Local Manager will automatically set primary
and secondary NTP and DNS servers per those delivered in a DHCP Offer if NTP and DNS servers are not already
configured. Any NTP and DNS servers configured via the CLI or the UCC will override server information delivered via
DHCP.
f
Automatically Detect and Configure Internal Modems – Uplogix will automatically detect and configure an internal
modem if one is present – this includes setting the modem make, model and serial bit rate for all internal modems. PPP
settings will be automatically configured for the case of a cellular modem.
DEVICE MONITORING
f
Regularly monitor a device and automatically restore the startup configuration and standard/certified OS for the device if
the device is replaced (due to RMA) or found without its configuration
f
Regularly monitor a device and automatically recover the device if the OS is missing or corrupted, or if the device is stuck
in a boot loader state
f
Monitor and save device CPU and memory utilization
f
Monitor and save device interface status and statistics
f
Monitor and save device log messages
f
Monitor and save power on self test (POST) messages when managed device powers up
f
Monitor commands typed by user in a terminal session
f
Monitor device connectivity using ICMP Ping
SERVICE LEVEL MONITORING
f
Represent interfaces on multiple networks, QOS tagged, performed just as end user devices
f
Regularly monitor network based services to validate availability
f
Execute tests ad-hoc for troubleshooting
