- A flexible, distributed and hierarchal deployment model provides increased scalability and resilience for networks with high availability requirements
- Multi-user role-based management features ensure a comprehensive audit trail for user- and operations-based compliance
- Multiple network topology views provide a detailed inventory of network configuration, as well as comprehensive element management of both H3C and 3Com devices
- Easy-to-use performance management features - including in-depth correlation and analysis, real-time alarming, troubleshooting and experience capture - enables administrators to rapidly identify and remedy faults
- Centralized report management facilitates the analysis of network trends and actionable capacity planning initiatives
- The ability to view current topologies and bulk deploy virtual LANs (VLANs) facilitates the deployment and management of VLANs across the network
- Comprehensive configuration management dramatically reduces the time required to roll out network changes and enables the ""locking down"" of network configurations, greatly reducing network downtime caused by misconfigurations
- Access control list (ACL) management simplifies the deployment and control of ACLs across the network, enabling policy-based control of network security and quality of service (QoS), and ensuring the efficient use of device-level ACL resources
HPE IMC VAN Resource Automation Manager provides a data center fabric orchestration tool to deploy an intelligent, virtualized, on-demand fabric for the end-to-end HPE Converged Infrastructure and traditional tier network architecture. HPE IMC VAN Resource Automation Manager creates a standalone logical data center on per application or per tenant basis. This simplifies planning, provisioning, monitoring, troubleshooting, and completely segregates and secures applications. This is accomplished by dynamically provisioning network resources to a dedicated profile for a specific application or class of applications. IMC VAN Resource Automation Manager can also thin-provision resources for applications to avoid over-allocation. The addition of IMC VAN Resource Automation Manager extends the policy driven provisioning from server access, which was initiated with the release of IMC VAN Connection Manager to the rest of the fabric. IMC VAN Resource Automation Manager will deliver a comprehensive management solution for the converged infrastructure and cloud orchestration, a true Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).
