Overview
Business and network transformation brings new challenges to traditional IT network management organizations.
The proliferation of mobile devices, pervasive voice and video collaboration, and cloud and data center
virtualization are driving the need for higher levels of service, application delivery assurance, and improved end-
user experience
and quality of service (QoS). Today’s IT organizations must maintain business continuity and
lower operational expenses while supporting these major shifts.
Cisco Prime

One Management
Cisco Prime Infrastructure simplifies and automates many of the day-to-day tasks associated with configuring and
managing the end-to-end network infrastructure. The converged solution delivers extensive wireless management
capabilities, including radio frequency (RF) management, user access visibility, reporting, and troubleshooting,
along with network infrastructure lifecycle functions such as discovery, inventory, configuration and image
management, compliance reporting, integrated best practices, and reporting.
Cisco Prime Infrastructure permits network managers to:
●
Assess, plan, and create configurations required to roll out new network services and technologies
This includes creating templates for monitoring key network resources, devices, and attributes. Cisco Prime
Infrastructure also comes with default templates and best practice designs to provide quick out-of-the-box
implementation, automating the work required to use Cisco validated designs and best practices.
