Identify bandwidth hogs and fix them
Using NFA add-on, you can receive threshold-based alerts when apps, ports, etc., exceed a particular bandwidth limit. After identifying what is causing a bandwidth hog, you can use OpManager to turn down that device temporarily, and improve network speed.
Analyze traffic behavior and patterns using flows
NFA add-on uses flow data from devices and stores them for analyzing and generating traffic reports in a simple format. It also offers real-time traffic graphs about your traffic behavior and usage by applications, users, and their conversations.
Make futuristic decisions based on capacity planning reports
NFA add-on provides reports on volume, speed, utilization and packets with one-minute average of IN and OUT traffic. This can help you analyze the traffic trends over a particular time, and make future decisions used on the organization's bandwidth needs.
Troubleshoot faster with advanced forensics reports
NFA add-on's Forensic report gives you visibility into specific parameters such as traffic, apps, source & destination address, DSCP etc. at any specific instance. This enables you to identify the root cause of the network issues and speed up troubleshooting.
Prioritize traffic with ACL and CBQoS monitoring
NFA add-on helps to prioritize traffic with ACL and CBQoS monitoring. Using ACL, you can block certain traffic and prioritize your critical applications. With CBQoS monitoring, you can validate QoS policies and avoid congestion by optimizing traffic.
Quickly detect anomalies in your network
Since every flow entering your network could carry threats such as a DDoS attack, or unauthorized scans and probes etc., it is mandatory to monitor them. Using Advanced Security Analytics Module (ASAM), you can gain a wholesome view of your network security threats in a single glance.
