4 Tackling Service Delivery Challenges Demands Deeper Insight into the Network What applications are consuming most resource and who is using them? How can I quickly isolate and analyze root-cause of application performance issues? Can I effectively leverage QoS and WAN optimization to improve application performance? Cisco Nexus 1000V VM VM VM VM Branch WAN Si Si Data Center Can I monitor VM network traffic to validate and finetune virtual infrastructure configuration (QoS policies, VLAN assignments, ) Campus Is my business critical application traffic getting higher priority? Am I loosing a lot packets on the WAN router interface? Is the end-user experiencing any response time degradations? Branch 4

5 Introducing Cisco NAM Software 5.0 Network Traffic and Performance Analysis Empower network administrators with visibility into the network to optimize resources, troubleshoot performance issues, and ensure consistent end-user experience Improves operational efficiency Provides enhanced application performance visibility across the network Reduces total cost of ownership and simplifies manageability 5

6 Improved Operational Efficiency Reduce Time to Problem Resolution from Days to Minutes Pre-packaged Interactive reports Packet Capture Error Scan Combined packet and flow analysis 6

7 Enhanced Application Visibility Simplify Service Delivery across Cisco Borderless Network Accurate characterization of application performance Application Response Time Summary Consistent application recognition Improved end-user experience with effective use of control and optimization techniques WAN Application Response Time Voice Quality Bandwidth Usage and Optimization Troubleshooting Data Centers 7
