Integration & Device Support

Uplogix integrates with various network devices and server platforms by tying the device's command line interface into the Uplogix unified CLI framework. The unified common interface not only eliminates the need for administrators to remember individual device commands, but also makes automating common management tasks simpler. Devices not currently supported can be managed natively by using the device CLI.

An example device integration includes the following:

  • Authentication to the device
  • Granular authorization to device commands
  • Configuration management and recovery for the device
  • Firmware / OS upgrade and re-imaging in event of failures
  • Collection of device system logs
  • Reboot / power cycle
  • Constant performance / error monitoring for the device
  • User session and keystroke logging
  • Storage and reporting of device changes

 

Devices currently supported include:

  • Routers: Nortel, Juniper, Cisco, Tasman
  • Switches: 3Com, Alcatel, Cisco
  • Firewall: Netscreen, Cisco
  • GPS: Garmin
  • Satellite modem: Comtech, iDirect
  • VSAT: NDSatcom
  • Servers: HP, Sun, Dell
  • Server operating systems: Linux, Solaris, Windows 2003

 

Uplogix Envoys serve a two-fold purpose for us. They allow us to control and monitor our network devices and also automatically diagnose and resolve issues with connectivity to the Internet. We rely on these active management capabilities worldwide to provide automation that is accurate, uniform, and customizable.”
