Features And Benefits

Multi site management—Extreme Networks ExtremeCloud™ provides centralized management of multiple virtual or physical sites, consolidating management information from across the entire network for a global and consistent experience. New services or policies are defined in just a few clicks and quickly deployed across one or more locations, or simply in a specific sub section of your network, making it simple for you to test and deploy globally new application driven services. Security is built into the entire fabric of Extreme Networks ExtremeCloud™ and the devices that it manages. During the manufacturing process of cloud—enabled network devices, a unique certificate is installed along with the cloud discovery services to prevent man in the middle attacks and preserve the authenticity and confidentiality of communications between your wired or wireless network device and ExtremeCloud™. Web—based centralized management—Extreme Networks ExtremeCloud™ provides network administrators with a centralized web—based interface designed to easily manage both infrastructure and services. This graphical interface allows network administrators to configure, enable, or disable each device or group of devices.
