Nautica MicroManager Version 0.8 is a software tool that allows you to
control all the Nautica devices you have installed on your network. These
devices are represented by icons on the screen and can be located in one
office, over a group of offices or even at sites worldwide.
MicroManager uses maps, sub-maps and icons to allow you to place
managed devices and objects geographically on the screen. Devices are
polled using SNMP, the status of these devices is displayed on the map itself
using different coloured icons.
Maps can be layered one onto another and these sub-maps are entered by
double clicking on them. Any alerts and alarms affecting sub-maps are also
passed through to the top level map. This gives instant notification of status
warnings and changes on the entire network seen from the top level map.
