Gain Insight into the Source of Device Performance Problems

NetVoyant, the device performance module of the NetQoS Performance Center, provides SNMP-based performance metrics for managing network infrastructure, devices, and services—another critical component of performance-first management from NetQoS. It empowers you to manage the performance of your infrastructure by:

• Measuring VoIP jitter, latency, and packet loss statistics using Cisco IP SLA
• Identifying and alerting you to problems with infrastructure availability and resource consumption before these issues impact business operations
• Providing an accurate picture of device status and utilization
• Supplying detailed historical reports to justify infrastructure expenditures
• Delivering real-time reporting and alarms to troubleshoot and diagnose device-level issues that impact network and service performance

NetVoyant helps you understand what is really happening on your network from the perspective of both the WAN and the LAN. Collecting data from devices such as routers, switches, and servers, NetVoyant summarizes and condenses data into easy-to-understand, Web-based reports.

The NetVoyant solution scales to support your monitoring needs, allowing you to address short-term device issues while paving the way for future growth of your network infrastructure.

How Will NetVoyant Help You?

1. Make informed infrastructure investments by understanding the cause of device performance issues.


• Measure VoIP call quality using Cisco IP SLA
• Track device availability and utilization against service level goals
• Validate service provider service levels
• View the status and utilization of all network and server components in real time


2. Reduce MTTR with automatic alerting and Top-N reporting.


• Receive immediate notification of device problems through intuitive color-coded displays, emails, numeric pages, or SNMP traps
• Automatically launch scripts when threshold violations occur
• Identify critical infrastructure problems through Top-N Exception reports
• Troubleshoot connectivity issues with ping, traceroute, and MIB browser tools


3. Improve IT staff efficiency in managing device performance and avoiding costly outages.


• Graphically compare current device utilization against normal baselines to see unusual behavior
• Use fixed or rolling baselines to identify trends over various time periods
• View historical device utilization reports that include basic trend lines to help predict future capacity requirements
• Validate QoS configuration changes within the network
