Remote Network Management with NetMeeting

With Microsoft Small Business Server 4.5, Microsoft began including remote network management capabilities with NetMeeting.

Early Remote Network Management Shortcomings

With Small Business Server 4.0, remote network management needed to be run either through some type of third party remote control solution or by a dial-up networking (DUN) connection.

The remote control solution for remote network management solved some of the large image file problems with the Small Business Server Console. However, because the remote control packages were not designed and tested under Small Business Server 4.0, the products many times created more remote network management problems than they solved.

The alternative was a low-performance DUN connection. Neither way was ideal. Computer resellers and systems integrators needed a better way to remotely administer their clients' Small Business Server networks and perform remote network management.

New Remote Network Management "Solution"

With Small Business Server 4.5, Microsoft implemented NetMeeting 2.11 for remote administration and remote network management. NetMeeting solves many of the performance problems and integration issues that computer resellers and systems integrators had to previously grapple with when trying to run Small Business Server Console wizards remotely. 

In particular, it provides an acceptable performance level for remote network management. Small Business Server 4.5 provides an integrated remote control solution for remotely administering the Small Business Server Console... a primitive, yet effective tool for remote network management.
