Case Studies
Leeds NHS Partnership 20% MTTR with Observer
The Trust was suffering from the following network health challenges:
• Identifying causes of slow connectivity between sites on 1Gb core network
• Understanding why network issues were occurring inconsistently throughout the day
Solution
The Trust used Network Instruments® Observer Suite coupled with Advanced Expert Probes to automate large parts of the network management process and reduce the time spent troubleshooting by 20 percent.
The organisation achieved a complete return on their investment within 24 months and eliminated all consulting costs. Additionally, alarms were set up to prevent future issues and enable immediate problem resolution.

South Yorks Police manage VoIP & Applications with NI
South Yorkshire Police needed a way to manage and maintain its VoIP system, overall application performance, and resolve the more elusive, complex network problems.
To ensure the South Yorkshire Police network and its applications are available 24 hours-a-day, the IT team has deployed a highly effective, yet relatively low-cost, network and application monitoring platform.
This comprises of Network Instruments Observer Suite, a large-scale capture GigaStor™, six multi-instance probes and eight single-instance probes.
This set-up continually sniffs the network for faults and provides feedback and analysis highlighting areas where performance is impaired or where failures are likely to happen if left unaddressed.
South Yorkshire Police also uses Network Instruments’ retrospective network analysis technology to investigate incidents days, weeks or months later, providing down-to-the-second reports on traffic and application activities before, during and after the problem occured. This makes it ideal for monitoring Quality of Service (QoS) and key performance indicators.
“The combined Observer Suite and GigaStor monitoring platform has enabled South Yorkshire Police to run and manage a highly resilient 90-site network,” said Hill. “I can’t rate it highly enough.”

Virtualisation
As organizations implement virtualized environments, knowing how to monitor and maintain them becomes yet another challenge for today’s network professional. Monitoring network and application traffic in an environment containing one-to-many relationships between physical hardware devices (virtual hosts) and virtual application servers (virtual machines) presents a number of concerns.
This white paper presents various visibility options and their ramifications, and outlines new technology that allows visibility into both external and internal traffic within a virtual environment.
