| | NetSight® Policy Manager Role-Based System Management for the Enterprise An advanced plug-in application for NetSight, NetSight Policy Manager enables simple management of complex network policies, including Quality of Service, Cost of Service, rate limiting, VLANs and filtering. With NetSight Policy Manager, the policy rule set can be applied dynamically to the entire network with a single action—to simplify and automate the creation and enforcement of user access, network policies and business-enabled networks.
