Application Vantage helps ensure new applications rollout successfully the first time around and provides crucial information for establishing and meeting service requirements. Pinpoint the causes of poor end-user response times to the client, the network, a server or the application itself. Distributed applications that “worked well in the lab” can fail to work in a complex WAN environment. ApplicationVantage provides an easy-to-use certification process for the rollout of new or modified applications. The WAN Deployment Expert (WDE) module focuses on the dominant network budget metric: WAN bandwidth. It allows users to determine what impact hundreds of users will have on their infrastructure before rolling out a new application.

Candela Technologies creates LANforge - network testing and simulation solutions. Perfect for Stress and Load Testing of networks and devices.

LANforge FIRE is used for Traffic Generation and simulates the edge of the network under test. LANforge FIRE can generate FTP, HTTP, VoIP (SIP, RTP, RTCP), TCP/IP, UDP/IP, Ethernet and custom payloads. It supports 802.1Q VLANs, and can also emulate up to 250 Ethernet interfaces with unique MAC and IP addresses, allowing a single LANforge machine to appear as an entire subnet of machines. The WiFi testing solution can emulate up to 64 802.11a/b/g wireless stations. LANforge also supports the SIP VoIP messaging protocol, and can generate the RTP media stream as well. It can generate and receive traffic up to 999 Mbps per interface.

The LANforge ICE configuration is used to simulate the core of a network, and will be used to test and verify equipment that communicates through the core. The LANforge ICE platform is used to simulate T1, DS3, OC-3, OC-12, GigE, DSL, Satellite, Dial-Up, and other Wide Area Networks (WANs).

Not only software - includes expert consultant

NetworkSmart quickly determines if the problem is application, network or hardware related while isolating specific application calls that are responsible for poor performance. When performance problems occur, you may need expert assistance to help troubleshoot and resolve critical performance problems.

You get Performance Expert Services when you purchase NetworkSmart. The service allows users to upload performance files to LeadByte engineers and they will assist you in assessing and pinpointing the performance problem as well as putting you on a path to resolution.

nVision is a powerful yet easy to use tool for network mapping, reporting hardware and software assets, remotely managing and monitoring computers and devices. Many reports provide essential planning information.

The software inventory reports allow you to measure concurrent license use, and plan for software license requirements and upgrades. Hardware inventory reports provide a basic inventory of workstations and their configuration. Reports for SNMP switches and hubs provide port utilization and node information.

Expert Observer is a feature rich network analyzer with application analysis and baselining components. Expert analysis shows error events and evaluates the health of the client, server and network. The WAN delay analysis provides a graphical view of latency and response time measurements across the WAN. What-If analysis starts with actual client/server conversations, and allows you to predict network bandwidth and response-time impact.
