3 Exploring the IMC interface
IMC provides unified visibility for all IMC features, services and components through a single Web portal.
This Web portal offers a common launch point for all installed IMC base and add-on modules.
IMC administrators use this Web portal for configuring all IMC settings and functions. Network
infrastructure engineers, administrators, and managers can use the Web portal for performing tasks from
viewing and managing network user activity to configuring devices and viewing their current status and
performance.
Standard IMC supports access to IMC resources from mobile clients. It allows you to view faulty device
and interface information, query specific device information, view alarm information, perform device
reachability test (ping), view custom views and device views, and log in to IMC through the browser on
a mobile client. IMC supports the Android and iPhone clients.
The following information covers the IMC Web interface, IMC context sensitive online help, and how to
