Schedule an NCM report

Reports provide up-to-date information about your devices and help keep you informed to better manage your network. Schedule reports to save time and minimize your workload. You can choose when and how often to run a report for a device. A single report schedule can be assigned to multiple reports. You can also choose to email, print, or save the report information details.
