Features and Benefits

Management

- Integration with HPE Aruba Networking Management Software (AirWave), ClearPass, and HPE OneView
allows administrators from IMC to use AirWave for "user centric" wired management and wireless management while IMC provides edge to core infrastructure management, monitoring, and troubleshooting. Integration with ClearPass ensures IMC has the user context, allowing the administrator to easily associate an IP address to the logged on user. OneView integration automates the provisioning of ToR switches when VLANs are added.

- Resource management
provides comprehensive element management for multi-vendor devices using a single Web portal. Operators have access to a feature set for managing and monitoring many different networking devices and can manage them individually or in a group. Operators can also add devices manually, by CSV file, or through auto-discovery. Operators can view devices by topology, IP view, device view, and custom view and see key device details.

- Configuration and change management
combines the tasks of network device change and configuration management to effectively manage devices and audit changes Like the IMC Resource Management feature, the Configuration Center has a portal for accessing most IMC change and configuration management features. Operators can view and deploy software to devices, access configuration templates, utilize a system software library, clean the device for new deployments, and back the system up.

- Performance monitoring and management
provides the ability to monitor the performance of devices managed by IMC. The Performance Management features provide the ability to customize the collection, alarming, and presentation of performance data. IMC enables real-time and historical performance management for managed devices like routers and switches on data like IPSec VPNs, WSM, and QoS. Also customizable are threshold settings, performance views and data, and global monitors> Allows real-time viewing.

- Virtualization management

HPE IMC Software integrates management and the capability to integrate, discover, map, manage and monitor virtualized environments, helping to identify VM sprawl.
Provides insight and management of virtual networks, and reduces migration complexity by aligning as well as automating network policies with virtual images.
Supports VMware®, Hyper-V, and KVM; IMC Virtual Network Management Software; and automatic tracking of the network access port of virtual machines.

- Flexible, centralized reporting
offers administrator performance, operator performance, and resource reporting options by template. Other reports offered include real-time reports and ick custom reports. Quick custom reports give device and link reports. Device reports give information like IP address, status, location, hardware/software version on devices while link reports show connected to either end of a link. Reports can be customized in the interfaced to meet specific needs.

- Global ACL management
provides operators with a comprehensive feature set for managing ACLs including viewing and configuring ACLs on devices managed by IMC, and importing ACLs. The ACL Manager supports basic, advanced, link, and user-defined ACLs. The ACL Assistant facilitates ACL template rule creation and easier management. The ACL Resource List provides a portal for viewing and managing ACLs with a Rule Set List. The ACL Deployment Wizard assists in the deployment of ACLs.

- Role-based administrative controls
provides administrators with both the tools and the ability to grant access to only those features and resources operators need. IMC also provides controls and audit trails to support IT management best practices. Management rights and access to all resources managed by IMC are granted through operator groups, device groups, and custom views of the devices. An administrator can use operator groups to grant or restrict access to a variety of IMC features.

- Compliance center
IMC includes predefined policies for the compliance center as well as alarm generation when devices fail compliance checks

- Network asset management
administrators and operators can track assets as well as changes to assets. This feature provides operators with a list of asset and drilldown capabilities into individual device details or device audit details. Operators can also query IMC for specific audit records and manage the device auditing process.

- Real time fault management
integrates network management system of fault, performance, auditing, security, and configuration reduces the effort required to manage complex network infrastructures, allowing network managers to have one database of network devices in IMC that drives various tasks of network management. The database integrates with all IMC functions. The alarm or event management system in IMC uses the existing device database and generates alarms in an events of interest.

- Customized functions and third-party device support
IMC Enterprise Software extends device management and configuration functions; users can either extend an existing function to support third-party devices by compiling interactive scripts and XML files, or customize a function by compiling interactive scripts, XML files, and UI configuration files.

- Security Control Center
the Security Control Center can be used to define policies and enforce device settings consistently on selected devices; you can also use policies to manage VLANs and VLAN port settings or automatically apply a configuration template on newly discovered devices. Configure policies to send alarms when device configurations become noncompliant.

- Network data collection
generates, packages, and sends archived information about your network, device, or IMC software to the appropriate Hewlett Packard Enterprise support or sales organizations in one simple step. This feature gathers the data you selected and generates reports and data files containing the relevant information. It delivers the reports to your selected destination, either by email, FTP, SFTP, or to a file location.

- Intuitive user interface
Desktop UI provides up to eight customizable icon-based screen interfaces that can be organized along specific tasks. Includes many features enabling administrators and operators to manage the network infrastructure. IMC also provides operators with many paths to the same destination. Operators are provided with quick start guides. With the My Favorites feature, operators can create links to the IMC features they use most often.

- Includes Wireless Services Manager Module
Manages HPE Aruba Wireless devices, HPE MSM series ACs, fat APs (also called autonomous APs), and fit APs (also called controlled APs) and manages Comware-based ACs, fat APs, and fit APs. It also supports many Cisco wireless devices. (Consult Hewlett Packard Enterprise about the models supported by WSM). Supports 50 APs, with additional 50 APs licenses optionally available

- Network traffic analyzer
informs administrator of real-time network bandwidth consumption by users. IMC Enterprise Software includes 5 nodes.

- Extensible platform and module services
IMC Software has an open platform to support a service-oriented architecture (SOA); features within the software can be integrated with third-party software, utilizing the available APIs

- Features-based administrative controls
supports secure operator access to IMC via LDAP or RADIUS authentication, the ability to view the online activity of IMC operators, logging operator access temporarily or permanently, IP-address access, as well as audit trails that detail changes that IMC operators have made to devices in the infrastructure.

- eAPI library and third-party applications
the IMC eAPI library utilizes a RESTful implementation for simplified integration with Hewlett Packard Enterprise and third-party applications. eAPI calls are available in the library, which is included with IMC Enterprise software.

- Service Monitor
monitors the availability and responsiveness of common network services via probes that you configure; the probes reside on local and remote IMC software agents and test services from servers and devices that you select when configuring the probes; monitor these protocols: DNS, FTP, HTTP, TCP, UDP, VoIP (using NTA module), SMTP, DHCP, ICMP, Radius, TACACS+

- Telnet/SSH proxy
with the Telnet/SSH proxy, an administrator can use a browser to remotely access and manage devices through Telnet/SSH without installing a Telnet/SSH tool on the PC client used to access the device; this promotes secure and controlled access to devices while providing auditing of changes on any device; supports SSH v1/v2

- High Availability
provides high availability (HA) for the IMC system by offering one or multiple standby IMC servers for redundancy. IMC HA can be implemented with a deployment with a remote database or shared storage. (Optional add-on license)
