Open RAN promises to reduce cost and drive innovation in 5G networks. RAN hardware and applications running over the RAN must be thoroughly tested and qualified while under the presence of real-world network delay and impairments. The two main reasons for this: 1) The multi-vendor nature of Open RAN means components may not work well together, impa...

Importance of capturing network traffic Capturing network traffic involves accessing and recording the data that travels over a network. There are severalreasons and use cases for capturing network traffic. The first reason is Network Troubleshooting and Diagnostics. An inoperational network or a bad performance event oftenrequires packet capture t...

Jitter and latency are critical parameters in assessing and maintaining network performance. Network engineers need to be able to distinguish between them when optimizing network performance. Latency, the delay in data transmission, directly affects user experience, application responsiveness, and data transfer efficiency. Jitter is the variation i...

Networks on remote sites can be tough to monitor. Often, there is limited visibility capability, and getting network engineers on location for onsite troubleshooting is costly and time-consuming. When you need to capture and analyze data across multiple locations, Profitap IOTA offers an ideal packet capture and analysis solution consisting of EDGE...

Growing networks bring a growth in data transmission speeds with them. Although this is usually a good thing regarding bandwidth capabilities, different transmission technologies can result in incompatibility problems between connections. For example, in the case of 40G and 4x10G connections. 4x10G and 40G are two high-speed data transmission techn...

Companies in every industry are moving all or part of their infrastructure to cloud solutions.  Deciding to use a public cloud or your own private cloud or mixture is a decision we must make, Private clouds can deliver many of the benefits and savings that a public cloud solution can offer. Some of the most common benefits cited for cloud solutions come from the consolidation into a centralized model.  Let’s take a closer look at the list of benefits for moving to the cloud and ho...

Security and monitoring tool expenditures continue to be a large expense for enterprises. As enterprise network bandwidth consumption demands increase to 40, 100, and even 400 GE, there is a corresponding need for bigger data pipes, along with newer and faster tools. This is where IT management gets caught in the middle. Without new technology inve...

 Modern IT networks have become much more profound and more difficult to secure. Data integrity and monitoring performance are crucial for maintaining a smooth and efficient network. To enable a smooth and streamlined process, It is best to rely on key performance indicators known as the "4 Golden Signals" - latency, traffic, saturation, and e...

As most IT personnel know, network visibility is a crucial component of any IT network. If you can't see the problem, how are you going to fix it or even find the problem for that matter? At the same time, you want to be selective about the solution you purchase so that you don't waste precious time and effort. This white paper provides a deep dive...

 This e-Book is a comprehensive guide to understanding Network Monitoring and SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) the differences between the two and how you can use a network visibility solution to streamline these solutions. In today's digital landscape, network monitoring plays a vital role in identifying issues, optimizing net...

Written by Jerry Dillard, CTO and Co-founder of Garland Technology. Do you know what a Split Ratio is on a fiber network TAP? Well there was a time when I didn't, either. But I know what a seven-ten split is in bowling and I know what it means to "split hairs," but I didn't know what a "Split Ratio" was until I started to work on designing and...

The three key areas in managing an enterprise network today is monitoring Performance Management, Fault Management and Configuration Management. To meet these requirements many departments use three different tools, that create silo effect, with each department using their own tool and there is no integration between the tools. With consolidation of tools becoming a key requirement a solution that has an integrated architecture with one user interface that gives you visibility into each of these...
