Soneco is proud to announce that NetVizura is in GÉANT best practice document for network traffic analysis.
GÉANT, the biggest European data network, has published the document „Recommendations for Network Traffic Analysis Using the NetFlow Protocol“ featuring NetVizura NetFlow Analyzer.
...document presents the procedures used for network traffic analysis, which provide a clear overview of the structure of traffic and enable the efficient detection of potential problems and irregularities.
The document first presents the technologies applied in network traffic analysis, including their advantages and shortcomings. It then turns to detailed recommendations for traffic analysis based on statistics obtained through the NetFlow protocol. The recommendations include examples of the correct configuration of the NetFlow protocol on network devices, as well as examples of the indirect implementation of the NetFlow protocol in situations where network devices do not support it.
The document also includes an overview of the implementation of the NetVizura NetFlow Analyzer system for analysing the NetFlow statistics, which is used as a Network Management System in the Academic Network of Serbia and in other NRENs.
About NetVizura NetFlow Analyzer
NetFlow Analyzer utilizes Cisco® NetFlow, IPFIX and compatible netflow-like protocols to help net admins with bandwidth monitoring, deep network traffic investigation, analyses and reporting. By visualising the traffic by network devices, interfaces and subnets, net admins can better understand bandwidth consumption, traffic trends, applications, host traffic and traffic anomalies.
This enables companies to optimise their networks and applications, plan network expansion, save time needed for troubleshooting and diagnostics and improve security – in turn considerably lowering company operational costs and increasing network team productivity.
About GÉANT
GÉANT is the pan-European data network for the research and education community that interconnects national research and education networks (NRENs) across Europe, with 50 million users in over 10,000 institutions. It combines a high-bandwidth, high-capacity 50,000 km network with a growing range of services enabling collaboration on projects ranging from biological science to earth observation and arts & culture. These allow researchers to collaborate, working together wherever they are located. Through links to research networks in other regions (such as Internet2 and ESnet in the USA, AfricaConnect in Africa, TEIN in Asia-Pacific and RedCLARA in Latin America), GÉANT enables collaboration between researchers in over half the world’s countries.
