Do your users complain about slow server performance over the gigabit
backbone? Are you worried that a growing user base threatens to
swamp your gigabit infrastructure? How much of that expensive hardware
is actually being utilized?
Network Instruments Observer products can answer these questions
and more by showing you what's happening "on the gigabit wire,"
and telling you what it means.
For sites with low utilization (well under 50%), perhaps all you
need is one of our Observer software-only analyzers. To guarantee
full-duplex capture at wire speed, one of our hardware/software
solutions is required: Gigabit Observer Suite System,
Gigabit Rack Mount Probe, or
Probe Kit. All of these solutions include a high-speed full
duplex interface card and an optical or copper TAP (Test Access
Point) to deliver:
• Full duplex, wire-speed gigabit capture,
analysis, and statistics.
• A real-time Expert system.
• Passive and independent capture of gigabit traffic
- the TAP does not affect
gigabit traffic, nor does it depend on
switch hardware mirroring or any other method
of "capture" that can introduce its own
errors into the traffic stream being analyzed.
• The ability to connect and disconnect the
analyzer without any gigabit
traffic disruption.
• Full Support for Jumbo Frames.
Every analyzer in the Observer family lets you:
• Capture and decode network traffic, letting
you diagnose and solve access
and performance problems.
• Monitor the health and security of your network
with helpful views of critical
network error and bandwidth statistics.
• Set up automatic notifications that will email
or page you if errors exceed a
configurable threshold, or other criteria
depending the protocol under analysis.
