PacketTrap (http://www.PacketTrap.com) pt360 NetFlow Listener captures flow data from continuous streams of network traffic, including Cisco? NetFlow v1, 3, 5, 7 and 9, and converts raw data into useful charts, tables and tree hierarchy that quantify exactly how the corporate network is being utilized, highlight the conversations of the top talkers on the network, and isolate suspicious traffic. The tool results enable the IT professional to quickly identify which applications, conversations, devices, endpoints, and protocols are consuming the most network bandwidth and terminate unauthorized traffic ??enabling you to shut down the bandwidth hogs. NetFlow Listener also provides historical trends for WAN and LAN bandwidth usage to determine whether additional bandwidth needs to be purchased and monitors Quality of Service (QoS) metrics to verify that Service Level Agreements (SLAs) are being met. NetFlow Listener is part of the pt360 Tool Suite Professional Edition. The pt360 Tool Suite features a unique centralized dashboard and includes network reporting, diagnostics and monitoring from a single intuitive interface. The solution contains network discovery, network inventory, Cisco Configurator, Switch Port Mapper, TFTP server, SNMP, WMI, Port Scan, DNS Audit, Trace Route, Syslog Server, Ping and supports open source tools (i.e. Nagios, MRTG, Cacti), SaaS (Salesforce.com), and virtual servers. pt360's dataflow capabilities automatically pass information between tools so network engineers can pinpoint problems faster and easier than using dissimilar point tools. |
