Plixer International, a provider of NetFlow-based network management, announced Scrutinizer support for Cisco Performance Monitoring metrics exported with Flexible NetFlow.
The new support enables network managers to properly diagnose application performance issues by easily analyzing voice, video and data traffic while creating NetFlow-based reports on packet loss, latency and jitter.
"Many network packet capture solutions are cumbersome to use, lack real-time reporting or are simply too expensive to deploy everywhere," says Michael Patterson, CEO and co-founder, Plixer International. "Plixer is helping address these issues by becoming one of the first network management organizations to support Performance Monitoring for Cisco Medianets. Our Cisco relationship will provide network managers with improved ability to pinpoint and analyze network problems, ensuring applications and communications as well as -- cloud services -- are effectively delivered."
Router and switch performance monitoring has been combined with the Flexible NetFlow NBAR exports, enabling network managers to perform deep packet inspection on traffic flows, to identify applications that are sharing ports such as TCP 80. With the release of Cisco IOS 15.2(2) T routers now provide latency detail on NBAR discovered applications such as Skype and WebEx, improving network traffic visibility and performance.
