Highlights

When you need insight into your
infrastructure to control and optimize
network operation, the NETGEAR
ProSAFE® Network Management System
NMS300 provides the solution. ProSAFE

NMS300 helps you congure, manage,

and diagnose your network, ensuring
it delivers data and services in a timely,
reliable and cost effective manner.
Easy to use, proactive, and secure,
ProSAFE NMS300 facilitates the network
administration tasks required to monitor
and control sophisticated heterogeneous
data networks.

ProSAFE NMS300 works with any
managed device that uses industry­standard Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP), such as Layer 2
switches, Layer 3 switches from
any brand, wireless access points,
traditional routers, servers and printers.
It automatically discovers and maps up
to 200 devices on your heterogeneous

network without associated cost: NMS300
is free of charge up to 200 devices – and
Managed access points under a Wireless
Controller don’t even count. Affordable
additional 200-device license packs are
available for campus networks.

Network statistics can be graphed in
real time, or stored as historical data for
trend analysis. Proactive thresholds and

alerts, including Email notication, detect

bottlenecks and other network problems
and inform you of trouble before users
star t to call.

An easy-to-use Web graphical interface
enables you to monitor everything from
network elements to users and groups of
devices – from anywhere in the network.

Optimized for NETGEAR managed
network products, you can view

NETGEAR-specic information, and
benet from the following exclusive

features:

• Centralized rmware upgrades

• Conguration les backup,management

and restore

• For select product categories,local
master conguration les editing and
mass-cong deployment

New features include sFlow Collection

Server, topology map alerts when trafc
or packet loss exceed threshold, and

comprehensive MIB browser with SNMP-

set conguration.
