3. Security & Monitoring Challenges
• A growing list of tools need network access
– Application monitors, security/IDS, sniffers, VOIP analyzers, data recorders, compliance
auditors, content filters, etc…
1. Lack of network visibility
– Not enough SPAN port and TAPs
– Too many network segments & not enough visibility
– Can’t access problems fast enough
2. High tool cost
– Many tools require “big pipe” aggregated view
– Expensive to place tools at all required access points
– High cost to monitor 10G networks
– stuck trying to monitor a 10 / 40G network with 1 / 10G tools! Tools are lagging!
3. Overloaded staff
– Setup and maintenance is complex and difficult
– Troubleshooting is too time consuming
–
3 Change Board required for any required monitoring changes!

6. Market Driver: Network Speeds and Complexity
• BYOD – Its here to stay! Are you
ready???
• What does BYOD entail for the Network
Administrators
• More traffic
• More rogue devices
• More customer complaints
• More network strain
• More network analysis
• More…
• Tools are struggling to keep up
• Connectivity
• Speeds
• Data Overload
• Wrong data
• Not all the data
