3 Hardware, software and player activity monitoring How Network Operations Manager does it all... NE Server NOM Server PRIVATE NETWORK Players with NE and NOM Agent Screens 3M TM Network Operations Manager. What is it? NOM is a web-enabled software service that runs on the same network as your digital signage. It comprises two basic components: the NOM Agent and the NOM Web Portal. The NOM Agent installs on each of your network devices (player PCs and/or servers) to collect and report on status and execute remote command and control. Non-PC devices such as routers, firewalls and printers are monitored using SNMP. The NOM Web Portal is your interface and control panel for all network devices, and can be accessed via any internet-enabled computer. Network Operations Manager Players with NE and NOM Agent Screens How does it work? NOM Agents are remotely installed and configured by 3M as part of your NOM subscription. The Agent monitors all hardware, software, and activity on the player PC, not just that associated with your digital signage. Like 3M TM Network Edition software, the Agent uses only outbound Port 80 (http), allowing it to operate securely through firewalls and the internet. For additional security, the Agent encrypts all messages and invokes SSL for remote control sessions. The ideal complementary product for 3M TM Network Edition software If you are using 3M Network Edition software for the content management and scheduling of your digital signage network, NOM provides you with the reassurance that your network infrastructure is performing as expected. In other words, you can be confident that your content will play out exactly as planned.
