Performance management with nGenius from NetScout comprises the entire network and all its running applications. Aided by probes throughout the network, data are collected and transferred to a central management server. Thus you obtain information on capacity utilisation, response times as well as availability of components, network segments and applications. Early detection of problems, efficient fault elimination and, therefore, rapid recovery guarantee high performance. nGenius provides transparency in all seven layers of the OSI model and combines the key disciplines of an efficient network performance management.

• Planning network capacity
  This includes, avoiding network bottlenecks thanks to planning of bandwidth increases; detailed proof for more bandwidth, tuning and optimising the network infrastructure used; cost control and complete cost management; understanding which applications require the network infrastructure to what extent.
• Application and network monitoring
  Recognising how much bandwidth a certain application requires; identifying the application most used and its user; surveying how various applications influence other network services.
• Troubleshooting
  Isolating network and application problems; eliminating problems on the highest level; web-based access
• Fault prevention
  Pro-active alert generation through threshold monitoring; inclusion of threshold value information from collected data; eliminating non-relevant alert scenarios based on experiences from previous threshold value information.
• Service level management
  Understanding operations, which interfere with the business process; measuring response times of business applications; combining active and passive measurements for monitoring  business services; evaluating whether the individual user groups receive the service level intended for them;  identifying the root cause in order to avoid the blame allocation principle; comparing response times in connection with other network activities
