AdventNet Introduces ManageEngine NetFlow Analyzer 4 -- A Cost-Effective NetFlow-based Bandwidth Monitoring Tool for Network Administrators.PLEASANTON Pleasanton, city (1990 pop. 50,553), Alameda co., W Calif., a suburb of the San Francisco–Oakland area, in a vineyard and dairy region; inc. 1894. Wine and cheese are produced, and there are publishing and stone-quarrying industries. , Calif. -- AdventNet Inc., the leading provider of affordable network and systems management software for enterprises, equipment vendors and service providers, today announced the release of ManageEngine NetFlow See IPFIX. Analyzer analyzer /ana·ly·zer/ (an´ah-li?zer) 1. a Nicol prism attached to a polarizing apparatus which extinguishes the ray of light polarized by the polarizer. 2. 4. NetFlow Analyzer is a web-based bandwidth monitoring tool that gathers NetFlow(TM) statistics from Cisco(R) devices to provide in-depth analysis of network traffic and bandwidth usage. It helps administrators understand the impact of application traffic on network performance and determine which applications consume excessive bandwidth. Using this information, administrators can take corrective cor·rec·tive adj. Counteracting or modifying what is malfunctioning, undesirable, or injurious. n. An agent that corrects. corrective, n measures to improve network performance and proactively manage bandwidth availability. In-depth Bandwidth Analysis at a Fraction of the Cost NetFlow Analyzer 4 provides extensive graphs and reports on traffic statistics for analysis across the entire enterprise network. Other features include support for custom applications, user profiles, and device grouping options. NetFlow Analyzer's bandwidth monitoring capabilities enable IT to: --Determine bandwidth usage patterns across LAN (Local Area Network) A communications network that serves users within a confined geographical area. The "clients" are the user's workstations typically running Windows, although Mac and Linux clients are also used. and WAN links without having to deploy expensive hardware probes --Drill down to see the exact host, application, and conversation that caused a network bottleneck A lessening of throughput. It often refers to networks that are overloaded, which is caused by the inability of the hardware and transmission lines to support the traffic. It can also refer to a mismatch inside the computer where slower-speed peripheral buses and devices prevent the CPU --Identify underutilized links --Generate historical reports that indicate usage trends and help in capacity planning Determining the required future configuration of hardware and software for a network, datacenter or Web site. There are numerous capacity planning tools on the market used to monitor and analyze the performance of the current hardware and software. While bandwidth monitoring has always been essential for any enterprise, market analysts have found that NetFlow-based bandwidth monitoring offers a superior insight and valuable information on the usage of network resources, and network traffic flow. "NetFlow Analyzer is an affordable solution for bandwidth monitoring. We have been using it to manage our enterprise-wide bandwidth requirements Bandwidth requirements (communications) The channel bandwidths needed to transmit various types of signals, using various processing schemes. Every signal observed in practice can be expressed as a sum (discrete or over a frequency continuum) of sinusoidal effectively. It was able to correlate the vast NetFlow data exported from our Cisco Routers and provide us with rich reports that showed us the exact bandwidth utilization based on the type of traffic on our network," said Raul Borges, Network Administrator at Praxair. "NetFlow Analyzer is an ideal choice for enterprises which need to proactively detect network bottlenecks and provide a superior network connectivity experience to end-users." "In-depth bandwidth analysis is essential for enterprises to ensure optimal utilization of bandwidth resources and assist in long term capacity planning. NetFlow Analyzer addresses these concerns by providing a granular granular /gran·u·lar/ (gran´u-lar) made up of or marked by presence of granules or grains. gran·u·lar adj. 1. Composed or appearing to be composed of granules or grains. 2. view of the entire enterprise network," said Shailesh Kumar, Product Manager at AdventNet. NetFlow Analyzer is available for a free 30-day trial at http://manageengine.adventnet.com/products/netflow/download.html.
