Riverbed Product | SteelCentral NetIM

The health of the infrastructure components supporting your critical applications is an essential part of application delivery. If the infrastructure fails, your applications do too. To complicate matters, infrastructure itself is not static. It changes frequently, both in terms of configuration and topology.

IT organizations need to proactively monitor and manage infrastructure in order to understand infrastructure configuration, how applications pass through, and how it is performing.

NetIM monitors network devices for configuration changes. When changes occur, the solution persists the latest configuration change. Users are able to query both current and historical configuration changes on the device and to differentiate between versions.

SteelCentral NetIM provides mechanisms to monitor applications, servers, and network elements to ensure availability and performance. If a problem is discovered, the solution enables quick troubleshooting to identify the root cause of the problem. NetIM complements the visibility and troubleshooting capabilities provided by other SteelCentral solutions.
