When a network device is down, it’s not difficult to identify the cause of the availability issue. But, to be able to solve poor system performance problems you must be able to understand the relationships and interaction between the network, users, applications, and systems.
Through Application Centric Network Management (ACNM) we help you quickly identify where service degradation occurs in your enterprise by managing network and application resources. By taking a proactive network management approach we help you:
Increase efficiency
- Increase availability – Eliminate IT slowdowns and maximize service performance while increasing customer satisfaction through ACNM
- Plan ahead – Perform efficient capacity planning by anticipating the need for additional devices, bandwidth and memory
- Avoid service degradation – View your infrastructure’s entire topology, the performance of your information system and data flows within it
Understand your network from an application-centric perspective
- View network usage – Utilize ACNM to realize how it integrates with major RMON2 probes to provide a synthetic view of how the application traffic and users impact the network
- Centralize management – View relevant information collected from network devices and application sources through a central point of control
- Enable globalized management – Identify performance issues through web based reports that can be transmitted via email or viewed through a Web browser
Increase service reporting capabilities
- Increase information-gathering abilities – Generate reports from information gathered from infrastructure devices such as routers, LAN switches and probes, as well as from all of their physical and logical interfaces
- Customize information – Create reports that allow network end users, network specialists, and corporate decision makers see how the network meets their expectations
- Increase measurable results – Publish user-oriented Service Level Agreements (SLAs) that allow service providers to estimate the quality of the network service delivered
