Remote Management for your POE Switches and other Layer2 Functionality in the Cloud

Remote Management Made Easy: Cloud-Based Switch Management

All business switches have a GUI that allows them to monitor and configure a myriad of settings. The problem is they require an on-premise presence to manage them specifically for MSPs and multi-site networks. It could also be overwhelming monitoring and keeping track of all switch locations, addresses, and passwords. Cloud switches are a concept in which the switch is installed on premise and managed from the Cloud. As long as the switch has Internet access, its GUI can be accessed without any on-premise agent or port forward and 100 percent of settings are available for remote configuration.

Layer2 is the local network layer that involves MAC addresses and ethernet traffic. With this new agentless technology, Layer2 can be moved to the Cloud. Data can be accumulated and automatic intelligence decisions (with the use of AI) about traffic, security, and port status can be implemented in the near future.

IPTechview™ enables this. In addition to having direct access to the switch GUI, with IPTechView, all port status and associated MACs in a switch can be seen in one screen so you know what is connected to each port. Quick control tools are available so ports can be powered Off/On for a quick reboot of any PoE device.
