Penetration Manager
Penetration
Manager is an automated process that helps identify cutting
elements and host elements. It integrates configuration and clash checks to
find clashes and the status of penetrations to create a new opening. When
elements clash, it validates the number of clashes with the help of
configurations. Updating the model creates penetrations on elements using
configuration files, clash check files, and a penetration grid view report.
Layout and Settings
Penetration Manager consists of two panels. The left panel has the File option with Penetration and Validation Tabs and the right panel has the Configuration, Clash check, Update model etc, options where the configuration and clash check files can be selected from the drop-down list and a grid view consisting of element details. It also has the information option where the you can know if the clash file selection and configuration file selection is disabled.
