This is largely a packaging issue, Jane.
The NWAYS ELEMENT MANAGER V2 is just that, containing only the JMAs
(Java Management Applications, the device management stuff.
NWAYS MANAGER SUITE V2 contains everything else- LNM, ATM, VLAN, JPM
(except for the RMON products)
LANReMon (RMON) is available as Remote Monitor V2 and Advanced Remote
Monitor V2. The ADVANCED contains LANReMon and Traffic Monitor
together.
And the 8274/77 management is Nways RouteVision (3.2 on AIX, 3.5 on NT)
The ATM Manager is an updated version of what you have in V1.2.3. It's
not a radically different application.
There are new applications in the Suite- VPN Manager, Deployment Manager
(code distribution and updates for the 22xx boxes), a new traceroute
tool, and enhancements.
Hope this helps.
