NetFlow Analyzer is a web-based bandwidth monitoring tool that
uses Cisco® NetFlow to help IT understand bandwidth usage
in their network. Gathering NetFlow information exported from
various devices, NetFlow Analyzer lets you see what applications
are using bandwidth, who is using them, and for how long. With
NetFlow Analyzer you can answer critical questions on bandwidth
usage.With NetFlow Analyzer you can identify the exact reasons
for network congestion and drill down to see what caused it.
This information helps to solve most of the common day-to-day
problems of bandwidth management, do better capacity planning,
and increase the ROI on expensive network infrastructure.

Managing
today's large, high-speed networks brings unique challenges,
combining the problems of managing L2 switched networks with
the complexity of routing and BGP peering. In order to provide
cost-effective, uninterrupted, high-performance network services,
it must be possible to respond to real-time congestion and quality
of service issues, defend against security threats, generate
revenue from value-added service usage, and plan for future
resource deployment. Visibility into current and historical
traffic patterns across the entire network makes this possible.

Orion Netflow Traffic Analyzer

Solarwinds |

Orion NetFlow Traffic Analyzer provides a new level of visibility into network traffic behavior and trends.
Network engineers are now able to analyze the full breadth and depth of network traffic, including the most global
view of bandwidth consumption, as well as the most local view of current, detailed data measured directly from the
devices that create and route the traffic.
By leveraging Cisco's NetFlow protocol to extract data from routers, NetFlow Traffic Analyzer provides an in-depth
view into which users and which applications are consuming the most bandwidth. NetFlow Traffic Analyzer converts that
data into charts and tables providing network engineers with an easy way to identify and isolate the cause and source
of network problems, as well as provide historical performance information to help plan for future growth. Pie charts
show the distribution of bandwidth across different types of traffic (e.g., HTTP, FTP, VoIP) and across different users.
Line charts show the usage patterns over time. NetFlow Traffic Analyzer can also identify the source of external traffic
inbound to the corporate network.
Network engineers rely on NetFlow Traffic Analyzer to help ease day-to-day pains caused by the inability to drill down
into network traffic data statistics. Orion NetFlow Traffic Analyzer:
* Optimizes network resource allocation
* Enables quick troubleshooting of network problems
* Profiles users' consumption patterns
* Profiles applications' consumption patterns
* Enables quick access to traffic data
* Minimizes storage costs
* Scales to monitor interfaces with multi-gigabit throughput
* Enables long-term storage of NetFlow data
* Improves performance & availability

Scrutinizer NetFlow & sFlow Analyzer

Who, What, When and Where: Scrutinizer provides historical trends of the company's critical network
interfaces as well as the details on:
Who: The end system causing the traffic
What: The application/protocol that is being used
When: The time frame it has been occurring for
here: The network connection that is affected
Result: If something is consuming excessive bandwidth the end system can be identified quickly,
without utilizing a packet analyzer.
Scrutinizer uses your existing NetFlow capable routers and switches to report on top applications
and top hosts on specific interfaces. It provides details on how much bandwidth is being consumed
by each of these variables from protocols per user to users per protocol. Because Scrutinizer uses
NetFlow technology on your existing routers, you never have to deploy or maintain probes.
Scrutinizer goes beyond simple utilization graphs and tools like MRTG.

Arbor Networks' Peakflow X security platform was purpose-built to meet the demands of the largest
enterprises, addressing a wide range of external and internal security threats while maintaining
business continuity. It constructs a system-wide view of the entire network, auto-learning host
behaviors to determine who talks to whom, and how.
Proactively Manage External and Internal Threats - Using this data in conjunction with real-time
security information provided through Arbor's subscription-based Active Threat Feed (ATF), Arbor
Peakflow X generates actionable insight, allowing IT organizations to:
* Gain unmatched network visibility
* Stop known and emerging threats such as distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, viruses, botnet army attacks and worm outbreaks
* Determine if application performance anomalies are causing network performance problems
* Track down and eradicate phishing solicitations
* Harden the internal network against future threats
* Control user access and eliminate insider misuse.
Network Behavior Analysis (NBA): The Key to Beating Zero-Day Attacks - Arbor Peakflow X quantifies
normal network behavior, analyzing flow statistics such as Cisco Systems' NetFlow,
Juniper Networks' cFlow, sFlow from Extreme Networks and Foundry Networks devices, and raw packet
data. It uses this information to create baseline definitions of normal network behavior.
In real-time, Arbor Peakflow compares traffic against these baselines to perform network behavior
analysis (NBA), an innovative management technique used to identify developing security threats
that do not yet have signatures - and therefore may easily slip by other devices such as intrusion
prevention systems and firewalls - including virulent "zero day" attacks.
