Net-Monitor Network Configuration Management

What Net-Monitor Network Configuration Management is

Net-Monitor Network Configuration Management helps teams keep a record of network device configurations and recover an earlier state when needed. It backs up and archives configurations across standard network devices, compares changes with a baseline, and records what changed and who made the change. Compliance checks show where configurations have drifted from a relevant baseline. Teams can also use standard or custom reports to follow configuration changes over time. The configuration management page describes identifying unauthorised devices and addressing them through port access management. The software runs on customer-controlled hardware within the customer’s perimeter. It requires no outbound connectivity and monitors equipment without agents installed on the devices. An open API and interfaces with external systems can send data and alerts to service desks, SIEM tools, or NOC screens. The maker quotes licensing per deployment, with the quote based on network ports, WAN lines, and installations. Net-Monitor lists two plans, NM-Network Monitoring and NM-Security Cyber, with pricing quoted per deployment. Technical support, updates, and maintenance are available under an active service agreement, with stated response commitments of two business hours for critical issues and 24 business hours for medium issues.

Who it suits

This software suits teams that need configuration backups, change history, baseline checks, and rollback on network devices. Its on-premises deployment and no-outbound-connectivity design may suit organizations that require the system to run inside their own perimeter.

Limits

Pricing is quoted per deployment based on ports, WAN lines, and installations. NM-Network Monitoring offers short, on-demand sniffer capture sessions; continuous 24/7 recording and long-term retention come with NM-Security Cyber.

Getting started

1. Contact Net-Monitor to request pricing for a deployment.
2. Plan licensing around network ports, WAN lines, and installations.
3. Run the software on customer-controlled hardware inside your perimeter.
4. Connect the system with external tools through its interfaces or standard open API.
5. Arrange an active service agreement for technical support, updates, and maintenance.

Verdict

Choose Net-Monitor Network Configuration Management if you need on-premises configuration backups, change tracking, baseline checks, and restoration within your own perimeter. Get a deployment quote before deciding, and check plan details if you need continuous recording or long-term retention, which are associated with NM-Security Cyber rather than NM-Network Monitoring.
