View Data Remotely with Web Reporting
- Arrange Views
- Access Reports
- Password Protection
Perform Historical Data Analysis
- Review routes and response times for past events
or timeframes
- Log statistics for historical interpretation and
baselining
- Record device performance
- Identify whether a problem is intermittent or ongoing
Device & Route Monitoring
Take advantage of SNMP & WMI data to monitor Active
Directory Servers, Host Resources, Internet Information
Servers and more, or create custom monitors. Know at
a glance which devices, routes, and IP services are
up or down.
- Monitor virtual servers and workstations
- Set user-configurable alarms and thresholds
- Graph statistics over time
GigaStor™ Integration
Link Analyst works seamlessly with the GigaStor back-in-time
analysis appliance to give you the ultimate troubleshooting
flexibility. Drill down to the device level and use
GigaStor to go back to the time the problem occurred
to see exactly what happened, without having to recreate
the issue.
Verify Quality of Service (QoS) and Service
Level Agreements (SLAs)
- Review QoS levels end-to-end and between network
elements
- Audit network performance to ensure SLAs comply
- Configure service level tracking for any device
- Quickly identify lapses in 3rd party agreements
Obtain Point-to-Point Route Analysis
- Obtain graphical and table-based display of route
between Link Analyst and any device, including response
time between hops
- Monitor performance of the connection between two
devices
- Track uptime and response time for QoS and SLA verification
Event Notification
Be alerted when a device is unreachable or has poor
response time. Choose sound, pager, or e-mail alerts,
or set Link Analyst to launch a program or generate
a trouble ticket.
- View alarms by Business Group/Route
- Drill down for device status details
- Graph and compare alarm data over time
Active Discovery
- See what devices are connected to the network, and
how they are connected
- Obtain graphical and table-based display of a network,
network segment, or remote locations on the WAN
- Monitor response time and performance of devices
anywhere on the network
Integrates with Observer® for Complete
Network Analysis
Start packet captures on selected devices or device
pairs, create filters on selected devices or device
pairs, review real-time statistics on any selected probe
or SNMP agent, export Link Analyst maps into Observer
alias tables, and import Observer alias tables into
Link Analyst maps.
Stay alert, stay informed, and make better network
decisions.
