Nimsoft Releases VoIP Network Performance Monitoring9 August 2005
Nimsoft today announced the availability of the NimBUS for Cisco IOS® IP Service Level Agreement ( IP SLA ), the latest product option of its service level management solution. The new NimBUS for IP SLA option provides enterprises of all sizes and service providers with an easy-to-use, scalable and cost-effective solution for configuring service level monitoring within IP networks, including Voice over IP ( VoIP ), Security, Virtual Private Networks ( VPNs ), and Multiprotocol Label Switching ( MPLS ) networks.
“We have been using NimBUS for more than two years to monitor our vast remote communications network serving our global oil and gas customers,” said Hagland Hansen, Engineering Manager, at RigNet Inc.. “This newly released NimBUS for IP SLA product increases our visibility of the network quality statistics, while offering a single view of our entire enterprise.”
Cisco IOS IP SLA, formerly named Cisco SAA, is embedded software within Cisco devices that can generate and monitor traffic to measure network latency, jitter, packet loss, and other performance metrics between any combinations of network endpoints. Since the agents reside on Cisco devices, they have precise knowledge of the delays and can provide accurate performance measurements. This capability is critical for effective monitoring of most networks, especially in VoIP-based networks which can be susceptible to voice quality degradation due to traffic congestion or packet loss.
“With the convergence of voice, video and data applications on the network, it is imperative for customers to monitor end-to-end performance for improved quality of service and problem diagnosis,” said Gary Read, President of Nimsoft. “The NimBUS for IP SLA option provides for easy configuration of Cisco IOS features, together with the ability to correlate the service level agreements information with other performance metrics for overall Service Level Monitoring. This option compliments our other network, server, database and application monitoring products.”
