The Network Utility is a stand-alone tool that allows you to view and define virtual node (vnode) definitions, which are used to connect to remote Ingres installations through Ingres Net. The Network Utility provides all the same functionality as the virtual nodes toolbar in Visual DBA. The Network Utility also enables launching of the Database Object Manager, Visual Performance Monitor, and Visual SQL utilities for such installations.

For more information, see the Connectivity Guide and the Network Utility online help.
