Benefits
The EWS interface provides the following benefits:
• Enables a single product to be managed from a single point of access.
• Allows an administrator to manage a product from any location (such as their
office, a raised floor area, or a conference room) within the company’s
public/private networks.
• Enables an administrator to view the most current information about a product
upon accessing the product.
(This easy access provides a single point of product administration that is not
limited to the location of an application or special hardware.)
