5 LANtools network manage-
ment
The LANtools (consisting of LANconfig and LANmonitor) are ideally suited to
configuring and monitoring BAT devices in complex application scenarios.
Multiple routers and/or wireless access points in a network can be adminis-
tered from a central location, as can devices in remote networks—for exam-
ple, when a service company maintains a device located with the customer.
Network management with the LANtools primarily involves the following
functions:
D Device configuration
D Management of configurations, i.e. save and restore the settings
D Carries out updates to the latest firmware versions
D Activates additional software options
D Monitors device status
D Connection monitoring (including VPN)
D Monitoring of firewall actions
