The GUI iNMS runs on a user-supplied computer running Microsoft Windows platform. Via LAN or WAN, up to 50 separate GUI clients can be concurrently logged into iNMS.

Workforce management is facilitated by multiple levels of login security, which provide the network manager great flexibility in work assignments. The hierarchical grouping featuring cities, buildings, and rooms allows rapid access to the desired network elements.

All SNMP provided functions are available in Loop-iNMS. This includes the execution of all commands, the gathering of all statistics, and the display of all alarm conditions in real time. Maps and reports can be printed as well as viewed directly from the iNMS GUI clients.

The support of Southbound Interface with NEs includes SNMP v1, v3, and others upon request. The northbound interface support includes CORBA and SNMP. Loop-iNMS is flexibly designed in a way to support nearly all types of southbound and northbound protocol sets. Customization adaptation into different protocols is allowed and is available upon request.
