Nokia Horizon Manager
Protecting your entire network with industry-leading security applications is crucial. But performing network maintenance one device at a time can lead to inconsistencies and errors and doesn't scale with an organization's growth. Fortunately, Nokia Horizon Manager delivers secure, centralized network management for enterprises and service providers - and performs as the network grows.
Nokia Horizon Manager reduces precious time spent manually installing and upgrading software and applications by managing multiple IP network security appliances and their IPSO operating system settings. For example, by staging new appliance rollouts according to enterprise standards with consistent configuration changes across the network.
Network managers can access Nokia Horizon Manager, with its remote secure GUI client, from anywhere to implement configuration changes across multiple Nokia IP Security Platforms. In addition, management tools such as configuration templates can be edited and stored to form a set of common and standardized configurations. A task scheduler feature also increases operational efficiency by implementing best practice security management such as system backups, upgrades and password changes.
Security, performance and reliability are all backed by Nokia world-class First Call - Final Resolution global support and services.
