A Flexible and Powerful Approach to Network Visibility

Problem: Cost Effective Scalability

New applications, an upgraded network with a need to extend the life of expensive tools, the fear of looming security threats — these are just a few of the reasons why organizations seek complete and powerful network visibility.

But as networks and their monitoring systems grow, so do data center–related expenses such as power and rack space. What’s more, adding disparate solutions to boost visibility can lead to a decentralized network monitoring system and prevent you from making the most of your investments in existing technologies.

Solution: Centralized Control for Improved ROI

The Vision 7300 chassis, part of the Vision family of our network packet brokers (NPBs), provides end-to-end network visibility to the tools that manage, analyze, and secure your physical and virtual networks.

The Vision 7300 provides flexible and powerful functionality including traffic aggregation, filtering, secure socket layer (SSL) decryption with data masking, deduplication, and intelligent packet management with line-rate, zero-loss packet processing on networks up to 100 GE for both Layer 2–4 traffic, and Layer 7 application-level data.

One of the most scalable network visibility frameworks in the industry, the Vision 7300 is able to expand as your network monitoring needs grow, and adapt as new applications are added or new security threats arise.

Because of this flexibility, the Vision 7300 integrates easily into any network or data-center environment, giving you centralized control of your network monitoring system in one simple, rack-mountable unit.

Such control and simplicity deliver significant bottom-line benefits as well: the smaller data-center footprint consumes less rack space and reduces energy costs, and you realize a greater return on your investment in existing technologies.

The Importance of Lossless Network Visibility

The Importance of Lossless Network Visibility

Complete network visibility is considered important by many in IT. But why? This white paper explains the importance of zero loss visibility on network monitoring. This includes the effects of data loss on security and troubleshooting efforts and how the performance of monitoring solution components figures into the capabilities of the monitoring solution. While many enterprises think that 100% visibility is important for their monitoring solution, many enterprises are struggling with achieving this goal – whether they know it or not. In fact, many think they are achieving the goal when, in reality, one or more of their solution components is actually failing to operate at stated capacity. This causes the whole visibility solution to falter. Read this white paper to learn about three steps to help you create a true lossless visibility solution.

Network Visibility – Resilience Matters

Network Visibility – Resilience Matters

Many visibility solutions can take up to 60 seconds to detect a failure, leaving your network vulnerable. A lot can happen in 60 seconds. When security is critical, you don’t want to leave your network unprotected for even a minute. Build resilience into your security infrastructure with bypass switches and network packet brokers (NPBs) configured for near-instant failover. Watch and see why resilience matters.

Network Visibility – Feature Compatibility Matters

Some visibility companies advertise features that cannot be used at the same time. But Ixia’s network packet broker features can operate simultaneously because they are processed by a dedicated hardware accelerator chip. Avoid the other company’s painful workarounds that are expensive and hard to manage. Watch and see why feature compatibility matters.

What Is a Network Packet Broker (And Why Do You Need One)?

What Is a Network Packet Broker (And Why Do You Need One)?

Keeping networks safe and users thriving amid the relentless flux requires a host of sophisticated tools performing real-time analysis. All of these tools need to know exactly what is happening in the network and their output is only as good as the data they receive. The challenge lies in efficiently funneling data from the network to each tool. Ixia’s Vision series of network packet brokers (NPBs) do just what the name suggests. They facilitate:- Better data for better decisions- Tighter security- Faster problem resolution- Increased proactivity- Improved ROINPBs aggregate and filter the data sent to tools, adding intelligent grooming and security enhancements such as deduplication, SSL decryption, data masking, and application and threat intelligence. But, not all solutions are created equal. Contact us to discuss your unique network challenges and which NPB solution delivers the performance, ease of use, reliability, and security intelligence you need.
