Axia iProbe Now Shipping

New network management software speeds system documentation, software management.

29 June 2007, Cleveland Ohio, USA

Axia Audio is now shipping iProbe, a new network maintenance and diagnostics suite that makes managing, updating, and remote-controlling Axia IP-Audio Networks easier than ever.

iProbe software gives Axia administrators complete information about and control over their IP-Audio network. Running from a PC connected to the Axia network, iProbe lets admins manage and maintain large groups of audio devices from a single control panel. Upon installation, iProbe queries every audio device on the network, compiling information about IP addresses, software versions and more.

Just some of iProbe’s useful features:

• A powerful Auto-Documentation feature that records configuration settings for every networked Axia device — essential for administering large networks; a valuable tool for networks of any size.
• An auto-update module that finds the software version of all connected devices, and can acquire and upload new versions automatically.
• An Organizer tool that allows gathering of Axia Audio Nodes into logical groups for single-point administration of group settings, and mass software updates.
• A Firmware Manager that simplifies obtaining software updates.
• An Update Manager that makes it easy to apply newly-released software to single or multiple devices.
• A Backup utility that saves device individual device configuration for easy restore.
• Quick links that call up individual device configuration pages with one mouse click.

Axia iProbe works with any Axia IP-Audio network, and runs on any P2-400 MHz (or greater) PC, with a 100Base-T Ethernet NIC, running Windows 2000, XP or Vista. iProbe has an MSRP of $495.00; for more information, or for the location of your nearest Axia Audio dealer, visitwww.AxiaAudio.com.
