PerleVIEW provides you with the ability to create task instances for common functions you need to
perform on your devices. By creating tasks this gives you the ability to control and schedule when
certain functions will be performed (example: discovering devices or deploying software).

z Discovering Devices
z Collecting Statistics
z Device Scripting
z Deploying Firmware
z Backup/Restore Device Configuration
