Product overview
HP Intelligent Management Center (IMC) Standard Software Platform is a standalone comprehensive management solution that delivers integrated modular management capabilities across fault, configuration, accounting, performance, and security needs.
IMC Standard software is designed on a service-oriented architecture (SOA) using a business application flow model as its core to allow the management of resources, services, and users to be fully integrated. This software enables an enterprise business to grow its management in scale and seamlessly accommodate new technologies. With its SOA, IMC software is capable of incorporating additional modules to its base platform to provide deeper functionality.
IMC software supports the management of HP and third-party devices, and is compatible with Microsoft® Windows® and Linux operating systems. IMC Standard software comes with an initial license for 50 managed devices. Additional node licenses are available to extend the node limit.
Features and Benefits
Management
HP Intelligent Management Center (IMC) Standard Software cohesively integrates fault management, element configuration, and network monitoring from a central vantage point; built-in support for third-party devices enables network administrators to centrally manage all network elements with a variety of automated tasks, including discovery, categorization, baseline configurations, and software images; IMC software provides configuration comparison tools, version tracking, change alerts, and more
Modular architecture new modules can be added to enrich network management capabilities; modules for user access management, VPN management, and traffic analysis can be quickly added to provide instant benefits; the architecture allows modules to share information and provide collaborative policy creation and reports
Live update enhancements
IMC Standard software now provides notification and download availability of the latest IMC patches as well as new firmware version releases for HP devices
Virtualization management
HP IMC software is one of the first management tools to integrate management and monitoring of both virtual and physical networks provides insight and management of virtual networks and reduces migration complexity by aligning and automating network policies with virtual images

Highly flexible and scalable deployment models
IMC Standard software delivers an extensive set of capabilities for managing large heterogeneous networks, and provides scalability and high availability through a flexible distributed deployment model; with its modular design, IMC software can be deployed across multiple servers to provide increased scalability and resilience
NEW Rich resource management
IMC software provides powerful network discovery and topology, including a detailed inventory of the network and highly accurate depictions of how it is configured; supported views include Layer 2 and 3, as well as VLAN topology and the ability to create custom views like a dashboard homepage; customization enables administrators to organize and control the network infrastructure; IMC now supports multidevice context and Intelligent Resilient Framework
Flexible, centralized reporting centralized report management simplifies an organization's report administration; the software's flexible historical reports provide the information necessary for network trend analysis and capacity planning, and offer predefined reports or customization options to define parameters; reports can be viewed in a number of formats, including .pdf and .xls, and can be sent automatically via email, or can be scheduled to run at a set timeframe
Access control list management
IMC software simplifies the definition, deployment, and control of ACLs with effective policy-based control of network security and quality of service (QoS) across an organization's network infrastructure; ACL rule optimization helps ensure efficient use of
ACL resources on devices
Identification and access management with the addition of the optional IMC User Access Manager (UAM) module, the system implements unified and centralized access management, supporting access through authentications, including LAN, WAN, WLAN, and VPN; it supports strong authentication using smart card, certificate, and others, and supports various methods for endpoint access control and identitybased network services that efficiently integrate the management of user resources and services
Compliance Center feature associates compliance policies with devices that need to be checked; the compliance check function can promptly fix configuration and security problems in the network; if incorrect configurations are found, the data for the specific device and the configuration error are included in the Compliance Center report; IMC now includes predefined policies for the Compliance Center as well as alarm generation when devices fail compliance checks
Virtual Connect support
IMC software supports add/remove connections for Virtual Connect Manager and displays the connect information from the device detail page
IMC mobile application
IMC software provides a new mobile application for the iPhone and Android operating systems; this provides administrators with the flexibility to monitor the network while they are away from their offices
Telnet/SSH proxy with the Telnet/SSH proxy, an administrator can use a browser to remotely access and manage devices through Telnet/SSH without installing a Telnet/SSH tool on the PC client used to access the device; this promotes secure and controlled access to devices while providing auditing of changes on any device
Unified Task Management and Wizard Center the IMC Wizard Center feature services many of the configuration wizards found within IMC software, such as quick start and the third-party device configuration wizard; new to this release is Unified Task Management, a section that hosts all tasks within
IMC software
NEW Traffic topology based on the network's physical topology, it enables users to view the traffic conditions of various links; utilizes IMC geolocation data to automatically derive and place topographic maps
Customized functions and third-party device support
IMC Standard software extends device management and configuration functions; users can either extend an existing function to

Performance views
IMC software provides new ways to view performance data: TopN, trend analysis, summary data, and at a glance; the GUI is flexible and allows for instant viewing, switching between multiple views, and quick access to the various performance summary views
Security Control Center the Security Control Center (SCC) can be used to define policies and enforce device settings consistently on selected devices; you can also use policies to manage VLANs and VLAN port settings or automatically apply a configuration template on newly discovered devices; you can configure policies to send alarms when device configurations become noncompliant
Network data collection generates, packages, and sends archived information about your network, device, or IMC software to the appropriate HP support or sales organizations in one simple step; this feature gathers the data you selected and generates reports and data files containing the relevant information; it delivers the reports to your selected destination by email, FTP, SFTP, or to a file location
Service Monitor monitors the availability and responsiveness of common network services via probes that you configure; the probes reside on local and remote IMC software agents and test services from servers and devices that you select when configuring the probes
