Apple releases AirPort Utility 6.0 for Mac borrowing iOS app design

Apple has released an update for AirPort Utility that incorporates the greatly simplified user interface that first appeared in the company’s iOS app for managing AirPort base stations.

The new AirPort Utility 6.0 now presents a graphical outline of the wireless base stations discovered and how they relate to each other, rather than providing a basic listing. The latest version works exclusively with modern AirPort Express AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule units supporting 802.11n.

The graphic below also indicates firmware updates are available for two of the devices. Clicking on a device opens an iCal-like panel that enables users to perform a firmware update or edit the device’s configuration.
