| 15 | +F5 NGINX Instance Manager gives you a centralized way to manage NGINX Open Source and NGINX Plus instances across your environment. It’s ideal for disconnected or air-gapped deployments, with no need for internet access or external cloud services. Use NGINX Instance Manager to organize and group instances, apply and version configuration files, monitor metrics and logs, and manage certificates securely and efficiently. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +NGINX Instance Manager is part of NGINX One, which includes [NGINX One components](#nginx-one-components). |
