OVERVIEW

LantechView is a user-friendly network management software (NMS) designed to provide network providers with powerful tools for managing the entire Lantech product line and platforms. This software suite includes LantechView Lite and LantechView, both of which support all Lantech L2, L3L, and L3 managed switches or routers across various platforms (OS1, OS2, OS2pro, OS3, OS4, OS5). It streamlines network management, enhances security, and improves operational efficiency and multi-language support (English, Chinese, and Japanese).


User-Friendly GUI, Dashboard, and Charts for Effortless Data Analysis
LantechView features a user-friendly GUI and dashboard, offering an intuitive interface and visually appealing design. These elements simplify navigation through complex tasks, enhance productivity, and make network management accessible to users of all skill levels. The NMS charts are designed for clarity and ease of understanding, presenting data in an intuitive and visually engaging format. This enables users to quickly analyze information and make well-informed decisions. (Dashboard: LantechView version)


Streamlining Network Setup with Lantech devices Auto-Discovery
The auto-discovery feature simplifies network setup by automatically identifying Lantech routers/switches on your network. This powerful capability saves valuable time and effort, enabling a more efficient and streamlined network configuration process.


Detailed Network Insights with Per-Lantech Device Port RMON Status Monitoring; Enhancing Lantech Device Identification with LED Blinking
The per-device port RMON status monitoring feature empowers users with detailed insights into the status or statistics of individual ports on Lantech routers/switches’ networks. This capability facilitates proactive maintenance and troubleshooting, making it an essential tool for ensuring optimal network health and performance. By triggering LEDs to blink, users can quickly locate a specific device for efficient troubleshooting support.


Prioritizing Issues with Categorized Log Severities; Auditing and Troubleshooting with Scheduled Action History (LantechView version)
Logs are organized by severity levels, enabling users to efficiently prioritize and address network issues. This structured approach ensures critical problems are resolved promptly, enhancing overall network reliability and performance. A comprehensive record of past scheduled actions provides valuable insights into network operations and maintenance activities. This feature enhances auditing and troubleshooting processes, ensuring efficient network management. (LantechView version)


Staying Informed with Alert and Warning Notifications; Alerts with User-Defined Event Notifications (LantechView version)
The Viewer notification system promptly informs users of any abnormal network behavior through alerts and warnings. This feature enables quick responses to potential issues, helping to maintain network integrity and stability. Users can tailor notifications for specific chosen events, enabling personalized monitoring and alerting. This flexibility ensures critical network activities are closely monitored, enhancing both security and performance. (LantechView version)


Enhancing Performance with RESTful API Support
The Viewer now features RESTful API support, a game-changing functionality that significantly boosts network management efficiency. This advanced capability streamlines interactions between the utility and network router/switches, enabling seamless communication, efficient control over configurations, and swift data retrieval.


Effortless Configuration Management: Import/Export Monitored Device’s Configuration Batch Import/Export multiple devices’ Configuration
The Viewer allows network administrators to easily import and export Lantech devices’ configurations across systems. This feature simplifies the setup of new Lantech devices or the replacement of existing ones, serving as an essential tool for efficient device management and backup. By enabling seamless configuration transfers, administrators can ensure network consistency, reduce the risk of human error, and save valuable time. The NMS elevates configuration management by enabling batch import and export of configurations for multiple routers/switches simultaneously. This bulk operation capability streamlines network management, ensuring quick and consistent configuration across Lantech devices.


Firmware Management: Check/Upgrade the Latest Version of the Device Firmware
Batch Firmware Upgrade for Multiple Devices

The LantechView automates firmware management, allowing administrators to easily check for and apply the latest firmware releases. It also enables batch firmware upgrades across multiple Lantech devices in a single operation, ensuring that all network components are consistently and uniformly updated. This streamlined process enhances efficiency and reduces the risk of errors during firmware updates.


Effectively Troubleshooting: Export the Monitored Lantech devices’ SNAPSHOT image
Batch Export Multiple Lantech devices’ SNAPSHOT images

This feature allows you to export snapshot images from both individual and multiple monitored Lantech devices, provided the hardware supports the snapshot functionality. The snapshot captures detailed router/switch information, including runtime configuration, protocol stack status, and system health. By exporting these snapshot images, remote engineers can quickly diagnose the root cause of issues, significantly saving time and enhancing troubleshooting efficiency.


Schedule Routine Maintenance Tasks for Reboot/Upgrade/Backup Lantech devices’ Configurations (LantechView version)
Functions such as router/switch reboot, firmware upgrade, and configuration backup can be set to occur at specific times, automating these crucial tasks and minimizing downtime. This scheduling capability ensures that maintenance activities do not disrupt normal operations, helping to maintain continuous network availability. (LantechView version)
