You can connect via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth using an Apple iPhone or Android smartphone without physically connecting the switch. Connected switches can be easily monitored and even configured using workflows and templates.

You can also monitor and configure not only single switches but also virtual switch stacking information, PoE usage, etc.

This application was developed to reduce the complexity of switch configuration and facilitate easier installation in large-scale deployment environments. It allows you to verify that the switch is properly installed and configured without relying on network administrator confirmation.

And it can be integrated with NetEdit for more intelligent configuration management and overall network health monitoring.
