PNM, Philips Network Manager, is a management system for X.25/FR TRT/Experdata equipment. It is used on top of Solstice SNM concurrently with many management packages available on the market for other equipment, allowing simultaneous supervision of LAN and WAN devices from one workstation, so that the user benefits from a combination of both the generic features of Solstice SNM or other generic tools, and the specialized features of PNM. PNM can also be used with Solstice Enterprise Manager.

PNM offers a graphical rear view of the equipment, with details and color animation of all the ports. The polling system of PNM is very flexible, the polling frequency being adjustable for each node. Alarms can be filtered and processed depending on their type, and SNMP traps can be redirected to another system. PNM APIs allow the exchange information with other systems. Whether from the map or from the Rear View, the user can invoke the PNM diagnostics functions for the nodes or for the lines, including the Protocol Analyzer. All statistics or other events information, after filtering or not, are displayed in user-friendly screens.
