management, monitoring, and high-availability traffic.
For flash-based appliances, you can purchase optional 2.5-inch hard-disk drives to use for
logging.
The IP561 appliance is designed to meet other mid- to high-end availability requirements,
including port density for connections to redundant internal, external, DMZ, and management
networks.

Managing the Nokia IP561 Security Platform

You can manage the IP561 security platform by using the following interfaces:
Nokia Network Voyager—an SSL-secured, Web-based element management interface to
Nokia IP security platforms.With Network Voyager, you can manage, monitor, and
configure the IP561 security platform from any authorized location within the network by
using a standard Web browser. Use one of the four Ethernet ports to access the Network
Voyager interface.
For information about how to access Network Voyager and the related reference materials,
see
The IPSO-VN command-line interface (CLI)—an SSHv2-secured interface that enables
you to easily configure Nokia IP security platforms from the command line. Everything that
you can accomplish with Network Voyager—manage, monitor, and configure the IP561
security platform—you can also do with the CLI.
