FAIRFIELD, NJ, December 23rd, 2009 - Critical Links, a global provider of unified voice, data and IT solutions for SMBs, announced today the release of edgeMANAGERTM Client, a stand-alone Java-based administration console that can be used with the award-winning edgeBOXTM.

edgeMANAGERTM essentially gives remote visibility to all the edgeBOXes deployed in a customer’s network; with the edgeMANAGERTM, one can view icons corresponding to every deployed edgeBOX on a console and click on any edgeBOX device icon, and drill-down to perform administrative and management tasks remotely for a specific appliance.

edgeMANAGERTM offers a set of features such as Single Sign-On, Local Administrator Access, real-time SNMP Chart Analyzer, SNMP Notifications Monitoring, SSH Client, FTP Client, Plug-in Support, Automatic Updates, and more to deliver a superior operational experience.

For existing edgeBOX customers, edgeMANAGERTM application will be available as a free download from the Critical Links partner website or you may contact us at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) to obtain the download link. The edgeMANAGER is available now.

The edgeMANAGERTM console shows the following information for every edgeBOXTM in the network:

  • IP Address / Host Name
  • Name
  • Description
  • Installed eOS version and build
  • Status (on-line or off-line)
  • Customer
  • Hardware Type, SN#
  • License ID

Critical Links’ vice president of product development, Alex Sarin, commented, “With the edgeMANAGERTM, we are greatly simplifying the management of a multiple-edgeBOX network. This is especially appealing for our service provider clients. We have deliberately introduced several features that make operational support much more efficient and cost effective. For example, edgeMANAGER with its Single Sign-On feature can help eliminate password fatigue and reduce costs due to lower number of help-desk calls about credentials. It also enforces security at all levels of the system and facilitates centralized reporting and monitoring”.
