What It Does |
Benefit |
| Application Layer 7 Monitoring |
Signature based classification
identifies applications such as Peer-to-Peer and
those that use common protocols such as HTTP. |
Application level visibility to
all traffic. Understand the actual applications
that are using network resources. Not just a traffic
dump of IP based flows. |
| Traffic Monitoring |
Wirespeed monitoring
of all traffic flows across the network.
Real-time
classification out of the box. |
Track usage and
network utilization by application, hosts or conversations.
View application flows in real-time and drill down
to specific branch offices, users or applications. |
| Historical monitoring |
Drill down monitoring of all network
conversations. Extensive reporting via automated
PDF and CSV exports and SQL connector. |
Enable accountability within the
business with extensive reporting mechanisms. Use
the data to plan network capacity growth. |
| Hardware (ASIC)
based Classification |
High speed ASIC
based classification enables L7 inspection in networks
with a high number of connections. |
Classify and
monitor L7 applications in busy enterprise and ISP
networks. |
