OpenView is a Hewlett Packard product range consisting of an extensive portfolio of network management and systems management products. Historically the foundation product was Network Node Manager (NNM), and this provided GUI services for other products which integrated with it. Nowadays, NNM, is generally used in its own right to manage Computer_networks, possibly in conjunction with other products such as Cisco Systems, Inc. CiscoWorks.
