How ExtremeManagement delivers extreme control:

The Internet of Things (IoT) era is quickly driving up the need for wireless network management in the enterprise. Similarly, BYOD policies and a growing mobile workforce are challenging businesses to monitor their networks with improved visibility and control. Extreme Networks’ Control Center delivers a suite of solutions that provide end-to-end application visibility and control.

As part of its larger Control Center offering, Extreme developed ExtremeManagement, a single-pane-of-glass wireless network management system that provides wired/wireless visibility and control from the data center to the mobile edge. With ExtremeManagement, Extreme leveraged the intelligence, automation, and integration of management software to enable IT teams to optimize the efficiency of network operations and reduce total cost of ownership.

Comprehensive wireless network management

ExtremeManagement is also distinctive for its granularity, which reaches beyond ports and VLANs down to individual users, applications, and protocols. No matter how many moves, additions, or changes occur in a network environment, ExtremeManagement keeps everything in view and under control through role-based access controls.

One click can equal a thousand actions when managing a network with Extreme. ExtremeManagement can even oversee beyond Extreme switching, routing, and wireless hardware to deliver standards-based control of other vendors’ network equipment.
