Nixu Software is pleased to announce a new release of its flagship product, Nixu NameSurfer Suite 7.0.2 Series. The latest version expands the all-around DNS, DHCP and IP Address Management capabilities through new dashboard widgets, extended service guard, and support for newly designed High Availability (HA) model.

The new HA model introduces support for Virtual IP (VIP) address option, providing a simplified alternative to external load balancers running in front of Hot-Standby (HSB) replicated pair of Nixu NameSurfer server instances. By allowing communication with highly available Nixu NameSurfer DDI management platform through a VIP, only a single IP address needs to be configured into the integrated DNS secondaries and remote DHCP server instances. Coupled with an enhanced service guard and a watchdog that actively monitors the health of the HSB server pair, the new version is ideally suited for organizations with stringent Service Level Agreements (SLA).

Nixu NameSurfer Suite 7.0.2 also includes new dashboard widgets and several subtle usability enhancements in its IPAM module. The goal of these changes has been to simplify network managers' lives and to further reduce the Operating Expense associated with DDI. Nixu Software expects to continue this work in all the upcoming Nixu DDI product releases.

Juha Holkkola, the Managing Director of Nixu Software commented: "Last summer, we introduced the motto "In Control. At Peace.". The latest Nixu NameSurfer release shows that it is not an empty promise. Nixu Software is there to make DDI environments extremely reliable and easy to manage, so whenever we see opportunities for optimizing these areas, we spare no effort."
