Large or global organizations often distribute network management by domain, region,
or country. Cisco Prime™ Infrastructure offers One Management to help you achieve
the highest levels of wireless and wired network performance, application visibility, and
user experience. It brings automation and best practices to the management of your
Cisco® networks throughout the technology lifecycle, from design and deployment to
day-to-day operations and service assurance.
For reasons of geography, scalability, resilience, or visibility, Cisco customers may deploy
more than one instance of Cisco Prime Infrastructure to manage their network. If you’re
one of those customers, you also need to manage all those instances together — as one.

Now you can manage your network and prove service assurance faster and more
accurately. Operations Center streamlines how your administrators access and interact
with multiple instances of Cisco Prime Infrastructure. You no longer need to generate
reports one by one and manually consolidate results. Nor do you have to check for
alarms at each dashboard. These tasks take time and may result in human errors. With
Cisco Prime Infrastructure Operations Center, you get easier access to information
about the health of your entire network managed by multiple instances.

Spotlight on Operations Center Capabilities
Cisco Prime Infrastructure Operations Center offers the following:
• Central dashboard: Provides a searchable, central view of assets, alarms, and clients
• Central dashboard: Provides a searchable, central view of assets, alarms, and clients
(Figure 2) associated with up to 10 Cisco Prime Infrastructure instances in the Cisco
Prime Infrastructure 2.2 release. The user interface offers you the same menu and
visual interface as individual Cisco Prime Infrastructure instances, requiring minimal
additional operator training. A single sign-on enables seamless cross-launch into any
instance from the central dashboard. Administrators can aggregate dashlets from
each instance into the central Operations Center dashboard.

• Centralized troubleshooting: Gathers and presents alarms from all instances into
a single pane or pop-up window (Figure 3), and also monitors the health of each
Cisco Prime Infrastructure instance to ensure consistent performance. With one
click, administrators can launch a particular instance to begin troubleshooting. This
capability helps administrators prioritize and assign critical alarms more quickly than
when checking instances one by one.
