The first-time Tool user needs to "Sign Up" first to define a local user and password; then create a Network by clicking on the "Create Network" button to fill-in the Network name and Details fields. Multiple networks are supported.
From the created list of Networks the user can access a defined network to generate a Map where they can apply a long touch on the screen on the location of the Router device to see a Cisco router icon followed by a short click on the device icon to get the popup bubble.
This package is unlimited in terms of the number of Networks devices within each network.
The popup bubble for each of the defined Router devices includes a "Settings" icon which links the user to the device's credentials which the user needs to fill-in as per the actual router configuration.
The Tool exploits the HTTP or HTTPS Server IOS feature [ip http server | ip http secure-server] commands. The user needs to define the username and password from the device and also create an HTTP(S) client user and associated password for each device.
