Astaro Command Center is a central management application which enables users to see and work with all Astaro products through a single log in. From instant hardware reports to security trend information, monitoring and managing all devices becomes an efficient and effective process. With just a few simple steps, IPSec VPN tunnels can be established and policies can be deployed to many installations. Learn more about the features and technical information below.

Real-Time Monitoring
At every site where an Astaro product is used, activity and information is gathered that administrators rely on. Rather than view and work with this data individually, the Astaro Command Center is the central point where you can see information on connected devices.

Site-2-Site VPN Configuration
No longer does making a VPN tunnel between two or more sites require an “information swap” by logging into each device and configuring parameters from the opposite end. Astaro Command Center makes building VPN tunnels easy, even if dozens of devices need to be connected.

Device Maintenance
The Astaro Command Center lets you take central control over updating your security infrastructure. Using the same technology as our WebAdmin, you can see what firmware version your installations are running and update them all simultaneously.

Inventory Management
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.

Access Management
Remove the need to remember complex site passwords and login information. Using encrypted sessions, you can dive directly into a device’s WebAdmin from within the Astaro Command Center without needing to re-authenticate.

Global Definitions
Avoid redundant tasks with Global Definitions. You can use to use the Astaro Command Center to centrally define objects and then push them out to your installations, placing objects directly in the target device inventory, ready to be used for building configuration.

Aggregated Reports
Astaro Command Center has a central reporting engine which allows you to select and compile over 20 reports individually or combined across multiple installations. This can let you know the most-accessed site in a company for a month, or the total amount of bandwidth transferred by three locations so far this week.

 

The Astaro Command Center is available on two platforms. The software can be run on a dedicated, Intel-compatible PC of your choice, or as a Virtual Machine within a VMware environment such as a VMware Player or VMware ESX. Both, the software and virtual appliances are available as free full versions.

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.
