Challenge
Keeping your “always-on” network running smoothly is not easy. Internal and external customers expect your increasingly complex network to run at lightning speed with little-to-no downtime. Despite networks doubling in size over the past few years, most IT budgets have remained static – or shrunk – and IT teams have become understaffed in the wake of economic woes. How can you keep up with fast-multiplying network challenges without growing your team or your budget?
Solution
To help you efficiently manage more of your network without requiring additional staff or budget, Anue Systems designed automation capabilities into the Net Tool OptimizerTM (NTO). Using automation, you can adjust your monitoring configuration proactively in response to changes in the network.
Common Automation Scenarios include:
- Redirect suspicious traffic to specific monitoring tools for analysis
-
Activate unused tools to distribute network monitoring bandwidth more effectively
-
Prevent network tool oversubscription by automatically filtering data when network throughput crosses predetermined thresholds
-
Instruct network management systems (NMS) to trigger NTO and redirect network traffic to specific monitoring tools
Once you configure automation on your NTO, you will have "always on" visibility into your dynamic network. So the next time you see a network traffic spike at 3:00AM, you can relax knowing that your NTO will take care of the early troubleshooting tactics for you.
