The ZyXEL Enterprise Network Center (ENC) is a network management system for

centralized management of ZyXEL networking equipment for businesses; it’s a

comprehensive network management tool that can be quickly installed and easily accessed

across the IP networks. The ZyXEL ENC is designed for small and medium-sized businesses

with a single console to enjoy extensive, scalable and seamless management across the

entire corporate network. Featuring intelligent discovery, ingenious monitoring and smart

management, the ZyXEL ENC assists IT staff to minimize overheads and errors while

improving operational efficiency.

Benefits

Access anytime, anywhere

The ZyXEL ENC provides Web-based access for IT administrators to facilitate network monitoring

and management without requiring dedicated client installation. The IT staff can utilize the ENC to

check device health or network inventory with a browser, wherever an IP network is available,

without the limitation of time and physical location.

Smart management fulfilling IT needs

Discovery & mapping

The ZyXEL ENC uses various protocols and centralized credentials to automatically discover

deployed ZyXEL equipment, and it performs periodic data polling for the environment to ensure

accurate network integrity. IT administrators can maintain a complete inventory of

ZyXEL-managed infrastructure and easily monitor the network environment in their customized

topology viewer.

Configuration & scheduling

The configuration management capabilities of ZyXEL ENC allow administrators to perform

automatic maintenance, backup and restoration of network device configurations to eliminate

inefficiency and error associated with manual operations. The ENC also centralizes firmware

management, with which firmware versions can be deployed to individual devices or groups of

devices based on the schedule.

Monitoring & reporting

The ZyXEL ENC supports in-depth correlation, real-time alarming and troubleshooting. It presents not only system information such as CPU usage and

bandwidth utilization to prevent possible network problems, but also offers customizable notification and alarm setting via multiple methods to escalate

correcting actions to the appropriate administrators. A threshold can be set to generate alarms on any monitor to quickly alert the operators of any issue.

Easy to read, identify and compare

The ENC dashboard presents the real-time state of critical events, health-affecting conditions and performance metrics of ZyXEL-managed devices to provide

the essential information for any possible attention. It is also customizable, so the IT members can have individual views based on their account privileges. The

ZyXEL ENC provides the graphical Object Tree View (OTV) that maps the managed devices and networks on the imported scheme and details such as device

up/down status and alarm status. With these indicators and metrics in hand, the IT staff can consistently ensure the network to meet expectations or take

further correction if needed.

Customized dashboard displays different account’s privileges.

networks on the imported scheme and details.

Hospitality Application: AP Manager

With the release of ENC 1.2, the ZyXEL NWA1300-NJ In-wall PoE AP is supported on the platform to run a variety of sophisticated applications. Specially

designed for hospitality Internet services with massive deployments, the Hospitality Suit of ENC management platform allows administrators to effortlessly

manage the network in a smarter way.

Intelligent deployment assistant saves construction cost

The actual equipment installation work of hotels during the construction phase is not usually aligned with the perspective of networking administrators.

Featuring innovative and unique designs, the ENC server can scan for the NWA1300-NJ in the field and then apply network configurations spontaneously and

automatically. With the profile-based configuration design, the administrators can manage a single or a group of the NWA1300-NJ according to the location

topology, guest room priority or geographical difference.

Location view for user-friendly, convenient monitoring

As traditional network management tools are based on IP logical view, they are usually not intuitive enough for hotel IT administrators due to lacking of the

location information. The ZyXEL ENC Hospitality Suit supports not only general management through the IP logical view, but also visual and customizable

location views by floor or building. With this special design, ENC relieves the redundant work of checking device status and eliminates the possible errors in

scattered, complicated operations.

Quick, powerful troubleshooting

It is sometimes difficult to identify radio coverage problems, especially those happened in public areas. With the capability to pull the imperative parameters

and indicators from the managed NWA1300-NJ, the ZyXEL ENC allows hotel IT administrators to quickly pinpoint the location and type of errors. The found

problems are described with clear, comprehensive illustrations to help administrators performing troubleshooting and thus provide high-quality wireless

service to the hotel guests.
