WhatsUp Gold Flow Monitor

Network traffic monitoring

Visualize network bandwidth utilization and network performance

 

How Flow Monitor Helps Ensure Network Performance

The WhatsUp Gold Flow Monitor Plug-in enables you to rapidly identify and resolve performance issues related to network bandwidth utilization. With Flow Monitor, you can:

  • Display top talkers (by IP address), so you can determine exactly which hosts (authorized or unauthorized) are consuming critical bandwidth. For example, YouTube™ video streaming by multiple users may cause network congestion and slow down other critical business applications
  • Track the number of failed interface connections, which can indicate external attacks on your network
  • Verify network QoS policies required to support applications like VoIP using TOS reports
  • Track and resolve network traffic or congestion problems using automatic classification of traffic by type and protocol in real-time
  • Detect the use of unauthorized applications, enabling you to ensure your network’s security compliance and legal liability
  • Track traffic anomalies to quickly detect the introduction of viruses and worms into the corporate network
