NetFlow Analyzer v12Product Overview
NetFlow Analyzer v12
Increased Visibility Great Control
NetFlow Analyzer is now packed with new UI for increased visibility and better control. It takes bandwidth monitoring and traffic analytics to next level, with ease of monitoring. It comes in 2 editions:
Essential Edition Distributed Edition
Setting tab makes it easy for admins to tweak the global settings as per the network requirement.Server settings, mail/proxy server settings, storage settings, waas settings, google map settings, flow-filter settings, system settings etc. can be done from this tab.
Settings tab
Dashboard view provides summary on traffic details such as Heat Map, top applications, top conversations, top QoS, top protocols and recent alarms.Drill-down option from Dashboard page will give in-depth traffic details to investigate it further.
Dashboard view
You can customize which widgets you want to have on a view and edit them. Configure dashboard name ,description, select custom widget from list, add netflow & NCM widgets from the list etc.
Edit & custom widget
Get detailed view od device list from Inventory page, arranged by list of Device, Interface, Groups, Applications, QoS and ASAM. Dial will show the count of each device type. Traffic details can be viewed either by clicking on device name/interface/app.
Inventory tab
Get detailed view of router/switch traffic to know the total bandwidth consumption by the selected device and view its interface traffic, applications, top source/destinations, QoS, conversations and AS view.
Detailed view: device traffic
Detailed view: interface traffic
Get detailed view of traffic information for interface- with IN/OUT traffic chart
Detailed view: application traffic
Get detailed view of traffic information for interface- with application associated to that interface chart
Detailed view: top source/destination
Get detailed view of traffic information for interface- with top source/ destination & conversation
Detailed view: Other details
You can view other details such as Top QoS, CBQoS, NBAR2 app, multicast traffic, medianet traffic, HTTP host, QoS stats, ART etc.
Detailed view: in-tab settings
You can view other details such as Top QoS, CBQoS, NBAR2 app, multicast traffic, medianet traffic, HTTP host, QoS stats, ART etc.
Ensure that enough bandwidth is available for business-critical applications from Apps tab.Drill down to specific app page/app details to view traffic and check for bandwidth intensive apps and take suitable actions such as apply service policy or ACL.
Application traffic page
It is possible to group IPs/Interfaces based on requirement and monitor it together to get a combined view of it.
Groups
QoS
Control bandwidth usage with QoS monitoring and set different priorities based on bandwidth consumption. View QoS traffic in this tab.
Increased network security- ASAM
ASAM module gives the ability to pinpoint unwanted behavior of network traffic and detects possibility of zero-day attacks and. Enable/disable list of problems, resources, algorithms, thresholds & alert profiles.
WLC monitoring
Monitor WLAN Controllers for bandwidth related statistics and drill down further to view reports on WLAN controllers, SSIDs, APs and QoS.
Search & filtering options
To quickly navigate to your views, you can use search option or apply filter from reports.
Class-based quality of service monitoring gives you the ability to easily view and report on the effects of the class-based QoS policies that is enabled on CBQoS-capable cisco devices.
CBQoS monitoring
Network configuration management
Manage all the configuration changes in real-time on your network devices with the Network Change, Configuration & Compliance Management and save time by automating repetitive tasks.
Alarms
It is easy to set an alarms based on threshold and get notified when traffic utilization exceeds threshold settings.
Maps
Visualize your network map by adding devices based geo locations and get clear picture of network traffic.
Social discussion
Social platform to discuss on the issues with the team to check if network is down or it is configuration issue or storage problem.
People monitoring-BETA
End User Bandwidth Monitoring provides bandwidth usage details of each users in real-time. Know the most common applications accessed by users list.
Search reports
Search report and custom search reports helps troubleshooting and helps the user to search your network traffic for a particular sort of traffic, which can be defined by the user.
Compare reports
Compare reports ' facilitate comparing multiple devices at a given point of time. This enables measuring how different devices perform for the same amount of time.
with reports and track conversations between endpoints
More reports
More reports provides more functionalities to generate customized reports to troubleshoot better covering time periods even shorter than 30 days. It includes consolidated report, protocol distribution, IPGroup, and capacity planning.
Highlights trends in network traffic, enabling you to plan bandwidth capacity needs, analyze traffic patterns with capacity planning reporting.
Capacity planning reports
Diagnose network slowdowns and outages with forensic reports. It gives you the flexibility to select how far you want to be able to go back to the past and get the required actionable information , which ultimately helps you achieve efficient use of your network bandwidth.
Forensics
Billing
Usage/volume based billing measure bandwidth usage of particular IP group based departments. The large enterprises can form departments using IP groups and associate these IP groups to certain bill plans, varying with projects and clients. The bills can be generated periodically and used for accounting and chargeback.
