Inventory Management
Know what devices you have deployed.
Nothing makes organization easier than a clear overview of your security devices. Inventory management allows the review of everything connected to the Astaro Command Center. Showing what types of devices are currently being managed, along with hardware specifications like number of processors and amount of memory, administrators can keep track of what their security infrastructure currently consists of. All connected Astaro hardware appliances, software installations, and virtual machines are clearly arranged and can be sorted by various parameters; a benefit appreciated once many dozens of devices are all being managed from a single point.
Description & Screenshots
In addition to the hardware overview, admins can access a details page for each device, which provides an in-depth hardware profile about the components which make up the security appliance. Information like BIOS version, hard drive model and capacity, and information (including MAC address) of every installed network interface card.
Many tools exist for controller which devices are allowed to communicate to ACC either over a private VPN or the public Internet, and administrators can review the connected devices and choose to edit details and labeling for any of them, along with deleting/denying them access to the command center. Scheduled operations allow tasks such as a scheduled reboot or firmware download/installation to happen at a convenient time.

Available Platforms
The Astaro
Command Center is available on your choice of three
platforms. The software can be run on a dedicated,
Intel-compatible PC of your choice, or as a Virtual Machine
within a VMware environment like VMware Player or VMware
ESX. If you prefer an official Astaro platform, we offer
four dedicated hardware appliance models to choose from
depending on the amount of devices you wish to manage.
Regardless of which one of our available ways you choose to
run ACC, the features and functionality are identical
General
ACC can be used to manage up
to 500 individual Astaro installations and is designed for
the SMB. Astaro Command Center lets you login and quickly
get the information you need without needing expertise in
security device management. Administrators of all levels who
are responsible for as few as two sites can use it to ease
management tasks, perform configuration, and provide
consolidated information/reports.
Minimum Hardware Requirements
- Intel-compatible CPU @ 1.6Ghz
- 1 GB RAM
- 40 GB Hard Disk Drive
- Best performance results are experienced when using hardware specifications at or beyond Intel Dual/Quad-Core CPUs @2GHz+, and 2GB+ of memory. Hardware requirements (including WAN bandwidth for the location hosting the ACC Server) will increase depending on the number of devices being managed.
