Introduction

A vendor-neutral, scalable monitoring system which collects, organizes, and distributes critical alerts, surveillance video and key information, providing a unified view of complex physical infrastructure environments from anywhere on the network.

Event logging
Pinpoint the timing and sequence of events leading up to an incident with the event log.

Customizable
Customize the simple signalling daemon to suit your needs.

Exportable reports
Reports can be easily exported into Word, Excel, rtf, and Crystal Reports format, allowing customers to quickly and easily integrate reports into custom presentations or sort information for custom reports.

Email notification
Inform selected users of work order completion.

Alerts View
Easily review and correlate alerts. Provide context to alerts by attaching video clips, graphs, and maps.

Mass Configuration
Provides a comprehensive mass configuration capability, allowing users to create, save, and push configurations or specific device settings to similar APC devices with a Network Management Card.

Data logging
Identify problematic trends before they escalate or export the data log for analysis.

Browser Accessible
View the user interface with a browser. Provides quick access from anywhere on a secure network.

Data graphing
Easily analyze sensor readings to identify problematic trends before they escalate.

Manage multiple UPSs
A 5-node or 25-node deluxe option provides the ability to view the status of multiple UPSs and to manage them simultaneously.

3rd party sensor support
Easily add 3rd party sensors for monitoring fluid, vibration, dust particles, radiation, etc. to meet specific monitoring needs.

Scalable Architecture
Cascade multiple KVM switches for a modular solution that supports multiple platforms, improving flexibility and simplifying future expansion. Please see the user's manual for specific cascading capabilities.

Notification groups
Group devices to ensure the right people receive warnings to prevent and fix potential problems in a timely manner.

Encryption
Helps ensure effective access control and integrity for SSL browser and SSH sessions.

Centralized management
Simplify management of the physical infrastructure using a centralized repository accessible from anywhere on the network through a powerful and easy-to-use console application.

Real-time monitoring
Immediate visibility to your entire physical infrastructure through centralized, real-time device monitoring and notification enabling quick assessment of events as they occur.

Fault notification
Real-time event notification minimizes response times to critical physical infrastructure situations. Enables IT Administrators to reduce mean time to repair, improve efficiency, and maximize uptime.

Multi-vendor device support
Extensive multi-vendor support for monitoring networked SNMP devices. Enable visibility of existing SNMP devices through threshold alert notifications, data trending and reporting.

Unified console
Customizable Windows and Linux client application enables instant access to StruxureWare Central application from anywhere on the network.

NMS Integration
Integrate SNMP traps into an Enterprise Management System, allowing users to view alerts generated by devices managed by StruxureWare Central.

Free text search
Quickly locate devices and alerts through the free search field.

Alarm filters
Customize the user interface to display devices in critical, warning or normal device statuses.

Auto-discovery
Reduces the time needed to install and deploy physical infrastructure devices by automatically detecting manageable devices on your network.

Mass Configuration
Provides a comprehensive mass configuration capability, allowing users to create, save, and push configurations or specific device settings to similar APC devices with a Network Management Card.

Mass firmware update
Decrease set-up time and complexity of managed devices by simultaneously upgrading firmware for multiple APC devices.

Custom mapping
Custom backgrounds, unique user-assignable icons, and drag-and-drop device placement make it easy to identify problem devices at a glance, minimizing downtime, errors, and cost.

Private networking
Reduce IP addresses needed on the public network to manage devices, by placing them on an isolated secure network.

Advanced device grouping
Define user access and viewing capabilities to individual groups. Control access to devices by administrator-defined user accounts. Additional user access can be managed by using the built-in LDAP and Active Directory Support.

Graphical trending analysis
Access current and historic data for any device or group of devices. Plot and graph multiple data points in a logical correlation to visualize potential hazardous trends.

Custom reporting
Create, save and schedule user-defined reports for ease of data collection, distribution and analysis.

Centralized Alert Repository
Access historical alerts from several appliances through one central database. Sort alerts by type, date, appliance, and/or device group.

Integrated data storage
StruxureWare Central ships with internal storage for data and video collection. Additional storage can easily be made available using the built-in Network Attached Storage server support for long-term storage and archiving.

Localized user interface
Provides a localized user interface including alerts and alert descriptions in 10 local languages.

Extendable architecture
Available node and application license keys extend the capabilities of the platform allowing it to grow to meet changing business needs.

Web services API
Provides the ability to integrate StruxureWare Central data and events into existing IT applications and tools capable of making web services calls.

Surveillance add-on application
Enhance visibility of your critical assets with physical threat management to monitor and record all activity in secured areas. A centralized repository allows the user to review, search and tag surveillance events for future needs.

Add-on modbus TCP output module
Integrates data and select events from devices managed by StruxureWare Central into an existing Building Management Systems through ethernet transmission.

Integrates with InfraStruXure Management applications
Achieve integrated energy efficiency, predictive planning and real-time data center operations through the add-on StruxureWare Management applications; StruxureWare Operations, Operations Capacity, Operations Change, Operations Energy Efficiency, Operations Energy Cost & Operations Mobile.

Customizable user access
Define user access and viewing capabilities to individual groups. Control access to devices by administrator-defined user accounts. Additional user access can be managed by using the built-in LDAP and Active Directory Support.

Encrypted communications
128 Bit, SSL encrypted communications between client and server, as well as encrypted user IDs and passwords stored on the server to help protect your resources.

Remote monitoring support
Web-based service that serves as a second set of eyes into the health of a company's physical infrastructure. Experienced professionals work non-stop to provide 24-hour monitoring and to help diagnose problems before they become critical.
