As an IT manager, you need visibility into every corner of
the network, from the edge to the core. A distributed
analysis solution can provide the coverage you need, but
where should you deploy probes for maximum visibility at
minimum cost? This paper describes by example how to
plan and implement a monitoring/analysis infrastructure
based on distributed probes. Because every network is
different, the examples shown may not look like your
network, but the concepts demonstrated will be
applicable to most situations.
“Successfully deploying a distributed analysis solution on your network requires that you understand some basic
concepts about distributed analyzers and network technologies. Here is a brief overview of some issues that you
should understand when purchasing and deploying probe-based distributed analyzers.”
