Opengear has unveiled key enhancements for its Network Resilience Platform. These advanced solutions — Connected Resource Gateway (CRG) and Lighthouse Service Portal (LSP) — dramatically reduce complexity and provide efficiency to IT organisations that are under vast pressure due to increasing demands to deliver results with fewer resources. CRG and LSP simplify the deployment process while providing ease of access, improved security, and simplified management when monitoring and managing IT infrastructure.

Opengear's hybrid cloud model for Lighthouse enables organisations to choose where to use critical applications and services, ensuring they meet regulatory and compliance requirements. As IT complexity increases with growing security, compliance, and AI demands, this hybrid approach mitigates risks while ensuring resilience across IT operations.

Douglas Wadkins, Vice President of Product Management & Strategy, said, “Opengear is committed to delivering solutions that solve real-world challenges. Customers rely on Opengear's solution before their network is operational, when it is unavailable and for everyday IT operations. LSP provides zero-touch provisioning for Opengear appliances and CRG ensures immediate, reliable, and secure access to essential tasks when managing IT infrastructure.”

Connected Resource Gateway (CRG): Simplifying access while strengthening security, CRG streamlines operations for IT teams managing complex infrastructure. It seamlessly integrates with Opengear's Smart Management Fabric (SMF), ensuring a dependable link between network management tools, users, and managed endpoints.

Available via our Lighthouse software solution, CRG now enables IT professionals and networking tools to securely access connected IT resources through a web interface offering serial or IP-based connectivity options. Access is managed through roles, permissions, and attributes, providing flexible and secure connections. It simplifies network management by eliminating the need for complicated client software installations or configurations.

Lighthouse Service Portal (LSP): Designed to simplify the deployment of data centre and edge site network infrastructure, LSP streamlines the provisioning of Opengear devices into the Lighthouse software. This cloud-based service easily automates the onboarding of new Opengear appliances. Customers can then leverage configuration management tools and API integrations to push configurations through the Lighthouse Smart Management Fabric and Connected Resource Gateway, completing the provisioning of Opengear appliances and connected network resources.

Available through the Opengear customer portal and in conjunction with Lighthouse, LSP simplifies and secures the enrollment process, providing a smoother, more efficient starting point for IT management.
