ManageEngine Highlights at Cisco Live Milan 2014

At Cisco Live Milan, ManageEngine experts will be on hand to discuss and demonstrate the latest enhancements to its IT management portfolio, including:

NetFlow Analyzer – With the addition of Cisco AVC monitoring, NetFlow Analyzer now supports all major monitoring technologies from Cisco including NBAR, CBQoS, IP SLA, WAAS and Medianet. AVC monitoring lets IT teams segment, identify, monitor and manage over 1,000 applications with the help of NBAR2. In turn, AVC monitoring helps improve QoS monitoring and application response times. NetFlow Analyzer is IVT-tested and certified as ‘Cisco Compatible’ in various key areas.

OpManager – The new iPad app for OpManager lets admins view the availability and performance data of Cisco devices. It lists the alarms that are raised and lets the admin acknowledge, add notes, clear and delete them. The app includes various troubleshooting options such as ping, trace root and IT workflow automation. Admins can also use the app to create custom dashboards and widgets.

DeviceExpert – With SIEM integration, DeviceExpert can now send Syslog messages to SIEM tools upon detecting a configuration change. In turn, the SIEM tools can analyze those events, correlate them with other network events, and provide insights on overall network activity. The latest release of DeviceExpert also gains session recording of Telnet and SSH connections launched to devices from the DeviceExpert GUI. Session recording caters to the audit and compliance requirements of organizations that mandate proactive monitoring of activities. The recorded sessions can also be archived and played back to support forensic audits. DeviceExpert also offers REST APIs to enable any third-party application or software to integrate with DeviceExpert directly and add, access and extract data.
