For example, green is used for indicating that the device communication is good, red stands for no communication with the device, while yellow points out that there are some warnings about the device in the alarm log.The devices are also shown on a map and you may drag and drop them to the desired position. The multi-tabbed layout gives you quick access to a set of monitoring options, such as current and history events, network inventory, link inventory, connected agents, service inventory, top 10 interfaces, web monitor and TFTP server.There’s also support for a web-driven interface that can be accessed via computers/tablets/phones regardless of the OS (Linux, Mac OS), Android phones/tablets, iPhone/iPad and Win8 phones/tablets.
