Observer Infrastructure
- High Level Resource Monitoring |
Maintaining
device and route performance is key to ensuring the delivery of
critical applications. Observer Infrastructure (OI) is a powerful
network monitoring solution that provides the functionality and
intelligence needed to ensure the network supports current and future
business.
Use OI to transform infrastructure metrics into
actionable information to use in problem prevention, optimizing
performance, resource planning, and so much more.
Features:
- Device health
monitoring (SNMP, WMI, and WSD)
- IP SLA active
testing
- NBAR and WAAS
data collection
- Server monitoring
- Event notification
- Automatic mapping
and topology discovery
- Route Performance

Observer
Reporting Server Integration
|
|
|
With ORS' Dashboard, you get
Real time Visibility to quickly assess the health of your applications.
From a single status dashboard you can see the performance of the
server as well as the health of the server.
Observer Infrastructure and extends the power of ORS Dashboards further
to help you in day-to-day function and role.

Web Service Data
(WSD) Application Visibility
|
|
|
Web Service Data (WSD) functions similarly
to SNMP and WMI, obtaining performance statistics from an application.
Using WSD, OI retrieves performance metrics from VMware ESX Server,
Cisco WAAS Central Manager and other metrics such as Microsoft
Exchange, MS SQL Server, Oracle, or even MS Virtual server Statistics.
From these metrics, network managers can
obtain utilization and resource consumption metrics for virtual
devices, or assess the impact of Cisco WAN optimization on performance.

IPSLA & NBAR Support |
|
|
Cisco's
IP Service Level Agreements (IP SLA) and Network Based Application
Recognition (NBAR) provide network-wide views of application and
service delivery and performance. Use these technologies to improve
traffic visibility on the network without deploying a single network
probe.
-
Track performance between IP
SLA-enabled devices and other remote devices
- Monitor common IP
SLA
operations (for example, UDP echo, IPv6 traffic, TCP connect time, DNS
lookups, and HTTP get and response)
- Obtain detailed
application
metrics from Cisco routers and switches using NBAR
- Actively simulate
VoIP calls
between IP SLA-enabled devices
|
| |
|
Leverage on existing
technology for monitoring
|
|
|
OI
leverages SNMP, WMI, and WSD metrics for collecting and reporting on
device performance. You do not need to invest further in installing
agents or probes to get started.
- Prioritize
device problems
based upon their impact on the business
- Monitor
IP address, port, and
resource availability
- Schedule weekly
device
inventories to track unauthorized or unknown
hardware changes

Route
hop & SLA Monitoring
|
|
|
This is another area which is often forgotten due to lack of
visibility. If you have mutliple routes to reach to the other sites
(sometimes thru redundancy or multiple links), and they are managed by
different service provider, how would you know - if you have a problem
- which one is causing trouble?
Or how would you know if they meet the SLA provided?
More often than
not, addition of extra hops creates a significant impact to critical
applications or latency-sensitive applications (say, VoIP ?)
Ensure route availability and consistency with OI!
Upon configurations, OI
discovers routes and creates route maps. OI then uses this data to
continually measure
route
performance and alert of route changes or
route delay. Documenting these changing
paths, known as
route flapping,
is essential for ensuring adequate response time and enforcing SLAs.

|
Dynamic
Reporting
|
|
|
OI
gives you the ability to customize,
view, expand, and compare reports for in-depth analysis on routes,
devices, and groups. After monitoring statistics, you get to view the
relevant report in web-based OI portal or ORS portal.
Reports available include:
- Alarms
-
Business group statistics
-
Device events
-
Response time
- Alarm
log
- OI
can also keep track of and monitor changes in removable hard drives,
installed software, and more. Run automatic inventories or take instant
snapshots, and create alarms for specific WMI, SNMP, and WSD objects.
|
|
|
Event
Notification |
|
|
OI also allows for
user-configurable alarms and
thresholds to notify if hardware or applications are up or down. Be
alerted when a device is unreachable or has poor response time. Choose
alert mechanism, or set OI to launch a program or generate a trouble
ticket.
Report types include:
-
View alarms by business group and/or route
- Drill
down for device status details
- Graph and compare alarm data over time
|
|
|
Active Discovery |
|
|
OI
allows views into what devices are connected to the network and how
they are connected. Users can obtain graphical and table-based displays
of a network, network segment, or remote locations on the WAN, which
allows for intuitive monitoring of response time and performance of
devices anywhere on the network.
|

|
GigaStor Integration
|
|
|
OI
works seamlessly with the GigaStor back-in-time analysis appliance to
provide the ultimate in troubleshooting flexibility. Drill down to the
packet level and use GigaStor to go back to the time the problem
occurred to see exactly what happened, without having to recreate the
issue.
