FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating an example including devices of an enterprise network 6 that may be managed using a network management system 10. Managed devices 14A-14G (collectively, “network devices 14”) of enterprise network 6 include network devices interconnected via communication links to form a communication topology in order to exchange resources and information. Network devices 14 may include, for example, routers, switches, gateways, bridges, hubs, servers, firewalls or other intrusion detection systems (IDS) or intrusion prevention systems, computing devices, computing terminals, printers, other network devices, or a combination of such devices. While described in this disclosure as transmitting, conveying, or otherwise supporting packets, enterprise network 6 may transmit data according to any other discrete data unit defined by any other protocol, such as a cell defined by the Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) protocol, or a datagram defined by the User Datagram Protocol (UDP). Communication links interconnecting network devices 14, network management system 10 and NAT device 16 may be physical links (e.g., optical, copper, and the like), wireless, or any combination thereof.
Enterprise network 6 is shown coupled to public network 18 (e.g., the Internet) via a communication link. Public network 18 may include, for example, one or more administrator computing devices. Public network 18 may provide access to web servers, application servers, public databases, media servers, end-user devices, and other types of network resource devices and content.
