  • Real time reports with updates to graph as the data is received

  • IN and OUT traffic (in bytes and packets) for each interface maintained with 1 minute granularity for up to 1 year
  • Performance improvement in IP group classification engine
  • Integration with Google Maps for a better view of the network

  • Easily export and share reports in PDF format

"We use NetFlow on a daily basis to provide visibility on traffic patterns within our fire-walled perimeter. It is used both as a fault-finding tool, and a management tool to provide forecasting and monitoring facilities of our existing and future traffic requirements. NetFlow Analyzer's standard interface reports and custom reports are very
helpful for us to determine network problems," said Garry Crothers, Network Engineer at Queen's University of Belfast, Ireland.

"Any network management tool needs to provide information in real time in order to be of value to the Network administrators. Knowledge of network health in real time can empower the network admins to troubleshoot network incidents instantly and identify threats even as they occur," said Raghu Ramanujam, Product Manager for NetFlow Analyzer at AdventNet. "With NetFlow Analyzer 6.0, we are happy to deliver just that - an in depth visibility into your network in real time," he added.
