Centralized multi-site network management is not only for large ISPs anymore. DrayTek makes powerful network management tools available to Small Managed Service Providers and Value Added Resellers. The TR-069 based application, VigorACS/SI, allows not only rich router event and status reporting but also full centralized management of DrayTek routers and access points.

One of the key benefits for adopting VigorACS SI is to offer a reliable service package to generate cash flow and maintain relationship with existing customers instead of the one-shot business, selling routers only. You then become a trustworthy partner to your customers who takes care of their daily networking operations 24/7 but don’t have to send a technician for on-site visit. For larger businesses, IT Dept can use VigorACS SI to centrally manage routers installed in branches in different locations.

VigorACS SI adopts the TR-069 protocol providing more dynamic services and avoiding security flaws caused by SNMP. VigorACS SI brings a user-friendly interface and doesn’t require savvy technicians to operate the diagnostic/management tasks which save significant labor cost and truck rolls.

Among other things, VigorACS SI allows you to:

• Visualize all your nodes in a Map and quickly identify the sites that need attention. Alarms panel show critical events in the network.

• Maintain the configuration of devices easily, schedule configuration backups and centrally make changes to essential router features such as LAN, WAN, WLAN, VPN, Firewall, CSM or VoIP.
