Compass
Compass is an endpoint and user search tool that allows the user to
quickly locate information pertaining to an individual network user or
group of users across the integrated wired and wireless network. It
provides searches by user name, switch authentication, physical location,
MAC address, IP address, IP Subnet, and other parameters.
VLAN Tools
Console includes a set of VLAN management tools to simplify the system-
wide deployment of VLAN configuration and monitoring capabilities. Using
these tools a user can easily create VLAN configuration parameters which
may be deployed automatically to multiple devices or to groups of ports.

Alarms and Events
NetSight provides advanced alarm management significantly reducing
problem response time. Any event can be configured to create an alarm
along with a color-coded severity scheme. Alarms may be configured
based on statistical thresholds. Alarm actions such as emails or other
notifications are completely configurable. Alarms are highly visible
including at-a-glance alarm status integrated with existing displays
and visual indicators in device status. Alarm information may be
archived, exported, filtered or searched. Alarm clearing can be manual or
automatic.
Ease of Installation
All NetSight client-server applications are installed in a single step and the
license key automatically determines which features are enabled. Product
upgrades to add additional functionality are fast and straightforward. The

Java
®
-based NetSight client application is automatically installed and
launched by clicking on a URL and is automatically upgraded if not at the
correct revision level. This ensures that the server and client are always in
sync, and all installation and upgrades only need to be performed on the
server. The NetSight client supports single sign-on so users are prompted
just once for their authentication credentials across any of the NetSight
capabilities. Permission consistency also limits user access to only
authorized MIB information.
Database Backups
Administrators can schedule backups of the NetSight database for
easier recovery.
Failover
NetSight may be implemented in failover mode when it is deployed as
a virtual machine. Leveraging VMware ESC and vCenter, an automatic
failover based on hardware failure is provided if contact to the NetSight
server is lost.
