ManageEngine Network Configuration Manager

ManageEngine Network Configuration Manager (NCM) is a powerful solution for real-time configuration, compliance, and change management across your entire network infrastructure. Simplify, Secure, and Automate Your Network Configuration Management.

Network environments are dynamic, complex, and vulnerable to misconfigurations and security risks. Manual configuration management often leads to errors, downtime, and compliance challenges.

How it works

Network Configuration Manager streamlines device management in five simple steps. It begins by automatically discovering and onboarding routers, switches, and firewalls. Configurations are securely backed up and stored, ensuring quick recovery when needed. The system continuously monitors for changes and sends real-time alerts on unauthorized modifications. Compliance policies are then enforced across all devices, and finally, detailed reports provide visibility into configuration status and regulatory adherence.
