Network Supervisor is a powerful and easy-to-use network
management tool in the 3Com ® network management range.
This chapter contains an overview of how you and your network can
benefit from Network Supervisor. This applies whether your network has
been carefully structured from the beginning or has evolved in a less
planned way.
Network Supervisor operates on Ethernet networks with up to 1500
devices (or 3000 devices if you have IP phones on your network). It works
best on networks which are based on 3Com devices, (although other
vendors’ devices are supported).
