ATEN International, a leading designer and manufacturer of advanced communications solutions, today introduces the CC2000 Control Center Over the NET management software as part of the Centralised IT Infrastructure Management Solution (CITIMS). CC2000 offers a single portal for centralised management of all devices managed through ALTUSEN Over the NET products, including KVM Over the NET, Serial Over the NET, and Power Over the NET. CC2000 has one master and up to 31 slave servers. All of the CC2000 servers on the installation can view and manage each other's devices, providing 24-hour reliability all year long.
The Master-Slave paradigm safeguards data transmissions through its built-in redundancy factors, which include automated database backup of Master, Slaves and devices; and real-time database updating. Redundancy ensures that should any of the CC2000 servers go down, the CC2000 management system keeps functioning since the redundant slave unit takes over to provide the required services until the downed units comes back up. This double redundancy feature, in which each slave server can have its own redundant slave, ensures smooth, uninterrupted access and management of all installed devices.
In addition, the KVM port, serial port and power outlet of an IT device can be associated and presented in the same web page, which enables IT administrators to completely control an IT device from a single user interface. IT administrators can also power on/off/reboot multiple power outlets of an IT device via a single mouse click. This single, integrated, browser-based interface enables connection methods without having access separate user interfaces making system management easier and more efficient.
"In the modern workplace, enterprise level corporations require a solution that reduces IT operation costs at the same time that it increases IT productivity. ATEN offers a complete Web-enabled Centralised IT Infrastructure Management Solution for convenient, economical, centralised remote access and management of IT devices in multiple data centres and distributed remote offices," said Kevin Chen, President of ATEN International.
The CC2000 offers powerful security features that include both internal and external authentication with security policies that permit user authorisation to be tightly configured-even down to a port-by-port basis. Administrators can select which servers and which ports that each user has access to. Users get faster, easier access to all their equipment via single sign-on Web browser access, while administrators maintain the security of the overall installation.
ATEN offers various online trial programs that allow users to experience CC2000's high efficiency management.
