Sniffer® Intelligence
Application performance analysis for the modern IP Network
Today’s modern IP network is a complex mosaic of applications. Critical business applications are interspersed among web traffic and network services. The convergence of Voice and Video traffic over the past few years has only added to the complexity.
Sniffer Intelligence speeds performance analysis and problem resolution. It automatically recognizes hundreds of well-known applications such as SAP R/3, Oracle, MS Exchange, and VoIP traffic. Each type of application incorporates a rich set of packet-flow statistic, charts, and graphs to simplify the analysis process. As more details are required, Sniffer Experts and Decodes are only a mouse click away to translate complex technical jargon into plain English to better tune applications and networks.
Sniffer Intelligence is delivered as a component of Sniffer Analysis, and is available without charge to all nGenius InfiniStream users. Optional modules are available for Financial Trading and Mobile carrier applications.
Features
- Automatic discovery: Identifies popular packaged applications based on their packet flow signatures, breaks out clients and servers to see who is using the network, and provides detailed response times to help solve problems and anomalies.
- Customer-aided discovery: Provides recognition of custom applications with equal granularity.
- Rich set of metrics: Includes more than one hundred application flow-based metrics, including detailed response times (broken into Server and Network times), TCP Efficiencies, throughput statistics, anomalies, and Quality of Service (QoS) levels.
- Identifies VoIP calling and called parties based on endpoint identification for VoIP analysis; includes phone numbers, extensions, SIP URI’s, end user names and IP addresses
- Successful application rollouts: Provides the level of detail needed to gauge whether a new application is performing as expected. This application monitoring solution also helps you see how the new application affects, and is affected by, other applications.
- HyperLock™ multi-dimensional filtering: Enables flexible drill-down analysis that caters to the way networking people work to solve incidents.
