...
- Issues: This tab summarizes the current network status, showing the same scorecard that appears on the main Dashboard, a flexible Network History chart, and an overview of current problems and possible problems in the network.
- Changes: This tab summarizes all recent changes made to the network, and provides features to change the information displayed in the summary table.
- Policy Compliance: This tab summarizes the results of Policies developed in the Policy Compliance features for device groups and active devices in the network.
- Performance: This tab summarizes active device operations in charts and tables.
...
- Inventory: This tab provides basic information about devices, interfaces, operating systems, and models in the network.
- Summaries: This tab lists routes (for all routing protocols), subnetworks, Route Targets, Network Views, VRFs (Virtual Routing and Forwarding instances), VLANs, HSRPs/VRRPs, and TCP/UDP port usage in the network.
- Topology: This tab provides an interactive viewer for exploring your network's structure.
- Discovery: This tab provides detailed information about NetMRI's discovery processes, including the ability to affect Discovery settings for individual devices, perform/repeat Discovery on a single device, set licensing for a managed device, and remove a device from NetMRI management. For more information on device-related Discovery functions, see Viewing Device Discovery Status and Re-Discovering a Device.

- Config Archive: This tab lists all devices in each Device Group, and is the front end for browsing, viewing, and editing configuration files from any active device, or comparing between two devices in the managed network. Configuration files drive the operation of higher-end routers, switches, firewalls, and other device types across the network. You can read, edit, and compare similar-device configuration files across the network.
- Config Search: This tab lets you search devices in the network for a particular configuration string, an IP address, or other specific device specification such as a MAC address, device model, or other phenomena, using many different types of search criteria and even regular expressions.
- Job Management: This tab enables the creation, scheduling, approval, and execution of Job Management scripts in the Perl and CCS languages, and the definition of custom issues to extend the library of issue types that NetMRI uses for reporting and monitoring of adverse events in the network. Job Management is used to automate common network administration tasks, and efficiently enforce normalization and best-practices configuration across the managed network. A critical feature set classified under Job Management is the Automation Change Manager (ACM), that which leverages NetMRI's scripting capabilities to support a set of Infoblox NIOS network automation utilities. Subcategories of Job Management include the following tabbed pages:
- Scripts: This tab lists all scripts in the NetMRI system.
- Library: This tab provides a location for CCS and Perl subroutines that can be called by other scripts.
- Config Templates: This tab, a location for templates containing configuration snippets and variables for easier job automation.
- Lists: This tab, a second library page, for lists of spreadsheet-type list data for use in automation jobs.
- Scheduled Jobs: This tab shows the current list of scheduled automation jobs.
- Triggered Jobs: This tab shows the current list of recently triggered jobs.
- Job History: This tab shows the complete history of automation jobs run in the NetMRI managed network.
- Custom Issues: This tab that tab allows the definition of custom issues based on job execution.
- Policy Design Center: This allows you to create rules and policies, and deploy policies on the network. Policy is a tool for ensuring all devices in the network meet minimum standards of readiness and security. Rules are the building blocks that form a policy. You deploy policies against devices and groups of devices. See Policy Design Center for more details.
- Summary: This tab provides features for the quick creation of Policy Rules, build a new Policy, or schedule and deploy Policies.
- Rules: This tab allows you to explore the entire library of Policy Rules and provides the ability to create, edit, copy, import, and export Rules.
- Policies: This tab provides general Policy management features, such as editing, printing, and import/export, and to test Policies against devices, configuration files, and configuration templates.
- Policy Deployment: This tab allows admins to enable policies against individual devices or device groups.
...
The Reports page provides features that allow you to run publishable reports from providing device information in a report , to reports across device groups or types of devices, to network-wide reports indicating trends across the network.
