When the network is hampered by degradations and outages, it is essential to re-establish service or fix the slowdown as quickly as possible so that business operations are not unduly affected. Without highly-granular, real-time information, troubleshooting can be a discouraging, time-consuming task with a high mean-time to repair (MTTR).

The NetScout Solution for Troubleshooting Network Problems 
The NetScout Solution facilitates high-speed problem resolution and lower MTTR through task-flow automation, sophisticated anomaly detection, and traffic recording. It gives you seamless access to real-time enterprise-wide views, backed up by high-definition, actionable information on all network traffic, including individual applications, segments and even end-users themselves, for rapid isolation of network issues, quick service restoration, and a minimization of business impact.

• Reduce MTTR and minimize business impact by automating the process to detect and diagnose performance problems
• Easily execute top-to-bottom network troubleshooting using graphical data-mining to quickly zoom in from a high-level perspective down through sub-second details or even a packet decode to pinpoint the root cause of a network or application disturbance
• Quickly diagnose network-wide problems by viewing any and all areas of your network simultaneously, whether physical or logical segments or complex network configurations
• Understand network and application problems in context by simultaneously viewing all applications, metrics, users, or time frames to obtain a fast diagnosis and accurate interpretation of performance issues
• Eliminate the reoccurrence of disruptions to business-critical applications by capturing evidence of hard-to-diagnose problems
