Cisco NetFlow services consist of high-performance IP switching features that capture a rich set of traffic statistics exported from Cisco routers and switches while they perform their switching functions. NetFlow traffic statistics include per-user, per-protocol, per-port, and per-type of service statistics. These statistics can be used by Network Managers for a wide variety of purposes, such as network analysis and planning. Web based graphical information is presented to the user showing statistics on elements such as source/destination, 'top talkers', protocol types and protocol load on the network. Individual NetFlow monitors would be installed at each network site where these statistics are required.

 

 

Product Benefits:-

LAN and WAN Bandwidth analysis without hardware probes - Offering an intuitive "drill down" into bandwidth utilisation without the complication and expense of hardware probes.

Completely Web-based - providing all authorised network users with access to information, which is relevant to them.

Integration With Crannog Netwatch™ - Netwatch™ complements Netflow Monitor™ by providing a customisable unified screen displaying network health and link status and providing an "in context" view of Netflow Monitoring.

Simple and Intuitive Graphical Format - which converts complex data into a clear view of bandwidth utilisation expressed as bytes transferred and percent utilization , all data accessed from a simple historical bandwidth graph.

Cost-effective Solution - unlike many other network management solutions which offer Cisco Netflow analysis, Netflow Monitor™ will run as a stand alone tool and does not require an expensive initial investment.

Speedy Installation Process - Following initial router or switch configuration, Netflow Monitor™ can be installed in minutes.
