Description

LiveWire is an advanced platform for network packet capture and forensic analysis that meticulously gathers and archives detailed packet information across physical, virtual, on-premises, and cloud environments. It aims to provide Network Operations and Security teams with comprehensive insights into network traffic, spanning from data centers to SD-WAN edges, remote locations, and cloud infrastructures, effectively addressing the gaps left by monitoring that relies solely on telemetry. Featuring real-time packet capture capabilities, LiveWire allows for selective storage and analysis through sophisticated workflows, visualizations, and correlation tools; it intelligently identifies encrypted traffic and only retains essential data such as headers or metadata, optimizing disk space while maintaining forensic integrity. The platform further supports "intelligent packet capture," transforming packet-level information into enriched flow-based metadata, known as LiveFlow, which can seamlessly integrate with the associated monitoring tool, BlueCat LiveNX. Overall, LiveWire enhances the ability to analyze network traffic efficiently while ensuring critical data is preserved for future investigations.

Description

NetFlow Traffic Analyzer and bandwidth management tools simplify the process of NetFlow analysis and bandwidth oversight. Enhance your NetFlow monitoring functionality by integrating NetFlow Traffic Analyzer with Network Performance Monitor, enabling you to assess your network, identify traffic trends, and mitigate bandwidth-intensive applications. With the combined capabilities of NetFlow Traffic Analyzer (NTA) and User Device Tracker, you can achieve quicker issue resolution, improved operational efficiency, and a clearer understanding of potentially harmful or improperly formatted traffic patterns. These tools work in harmony with the Orion Platform suite, including Network Performance Monitor and Network Configuration Manager. By pairing NTA with Network Configuration Manager (NCM), you can visualize traffic interactions according to policies right from the NCM Policy Details page. Gain insights from both IPv4 and IPv6 flow records while monitoring various flow data types such as Cisco NetFlow, Juniper J-Flow, sFlow, Huawei NetStream, and IPFIX, allowing you to pinpoint which applications and protocols are utilizing the most bandwidth in your network. Ultimately, this comprehensive approach to network monitoring empowers organizations to maintain optimal performance and security.
