Automatic Discovery and Mapping
Network Supervisor automatically
discovers and maps—as both a Layer 3
subnet view or a Layer 2 flat view—all IP
devices and links on local or specified
subnets, gathering additional management
details for 3Com equipment and some
common third-party devices.

Real-time Network Stress Monitoring
The software automatically monitors
network stress for all key switches and
links on the network, as well as the stress
levels of end stations, servers, and their
links to the core devices.

Comprehensive graphs display stress levels
for an instant view of network performance.
Experienced users can choose a more
detailed depiction of important parameter
values. To make troubleshooting faster, trace

Easy-to-use Notifications and Alarms
Alarm-forwarding options let managers
stay in constant touch with the network.
Any network event can generate alerts to
proactively communicate potential network
problems. Notification of these can be sent
as e-mails, audio alerts or visual pop-ups,
and can start third-party applications or
scripts.
