Automated Remote Management and Support
Proactively Heal Network Infrastructure
Opengear devices enable systems administrators to remotely monitor, manage, and control network equipment from anywhere in the world even if the network is down. Using our Auto Response feature, we enable systems administrators to design policies for automatic remediation of network infrastructure issues. Auto Response is available on the ACM5000, IM4200, SD4000 and CM4000 families of products running firmware 3.5 and above.
  • Setup and customization is easy using pre-defined condition checks and triggers.
  • Design your own automatic remediation based on your condition checks.
  • Select your trigger actions from the available list or create your own.
  • Check for resolution and send notifications of problem remediation.
