Traffic consists of various forms. Voice, video, data etc. When you employ a tool to monitor traffic, you should ensure all these sub-types are taken care of. We are glad to offer you video traffic monitoring for free through the Cisco Medianet monitoring feature.
Off late, IT firms prefer Teleconferencing or Video Conferencing to facilitate business communication. This saves a lot of time & resources in terms of money, commute etc. There is a complete transition from boardrooms to virtual boardrooms. It is an era of ‘virtualization’. It doesn’t matter where who is. Whether it is the next cubicle, next room, next block, next building, next city, next country, next continent, it is a global village & we have ways to ensure everybody’s presence at a given time for a meeting.
It is predicted that at the end of 2012 almost all the activities on the Enterprises will be Video and Voice. While implementing video and voice for higher speed and better cost-effectiveness, one must make sure that the performance is improved.
Cisco Medianet monitoring allows the administrator to analyze the performance of the RTP traffic in the network. The traditional ping, Interface Traffic Analytics and Cisco IP SLA will not help much in analyzing the performance of video or voice traffic, because all the calls are voice calls and all the streaming is video, it is not possible to discriminate which session you want to monitor for performance standard.
The Medianet monitoring has three important areas to cover, they are:
- Performance Monitoring (Medianet).
- MediaTrace.
- IP SLA Video Operation.
With this new version of NetFlow Analyzer 9.5 (Build 9500), the networkers can analyze the performance of their voice and video RTP traffic using Medianet and Mediatrace features for free.
Offering Medianet support for free with NetFlow Analyzer is a breakthrough in the history of traffic analytics tools. We would like to ascertain that our products are ready to face the changes in the networking world. With the evolution of various new & advanced means of network communication, we are committed to render product offerings that would add value to your network & ultimately get a product worth the amount you have invested in us.
