Infoblox GUI

You can view data and configuration settings and make configuration changes through the Infoblox GUI. When an 
Infoblox appliance functions as an independent appliance, you launch System Manager to access the Infoblox GUI. 
When the appliance is in a grid, you log in to the grid master and launch Grid Manager.
