Cisco Advanced Reporting Module

The Scrutinizer Cisco Advanced Reporting Module is a value added performance monitoring and reporting solution for Cisco Smart Logging and Telemetry, Cisco TrustSec (CTS), Cisco Performance Routing (PfR), and Cisco Medianet. Scrutinizer delivers detailed reports on all traffic related to voice and video. IT staff can troubleshoot QoS issues related to choppy video or delayed voice streams by using Scrutinizer to analyze the appropriate flow.

Scrutinizer can be configured to analyze and alert on excessive amounts of one or a combination of the following parameters:

Round Trip Time (Latency)

Jitter

Packet Loss

Bits, Bytes and Packets

MAC Addresses, IP Addresses

VLANs

Domains

Applications

Interface

Citrix Advanced Reporting Module

The SonicWALL Scrutinizer Citrix Advanced Reporting Module adds the granular drill-down capabilities for:

URLs providing reporting insight into web servers and databases being accessed

Applications providing reporting insight into applications being accelerated via NetScaler

Latency providing reporting insight into the health and delay as seen by NetScaler

Note: Citrix NetScaler makes applications and cloud-based services run five times better by offloading application and database servers, accelerating application and service performance, and integrating security.

Cross Check Module

The SonicWALL Scrutinizer Cross Check Module provides integration with third party monitoring and flow analytic tools such as WhatsUp Gold, Orion, SNMPc, Uptime Devices and Nimsoft. This module’s capabilities include:

Cross Check creates central inventory of all network devices managed by other analytic tools displaying several attributes including device name, IP address, and status.

Flowalyzer Poller continually assesses the status of devices identified by Cross Check and provides updates to Scrutinizer via IPFIX messages.

Cross Check references the status of devices as known by Scrutinizer with other third party management products to monitor if flow data is arriving properly and whether devices are being polled correctly

Fault index measurements indicate device status across numerous management systems using configurable severity levels. Syslog notifications can be sent out if predefined threshold levels are met.

Clickable inventory allows users with direct links to integrated third party applications providing easy access to devices that are managed via these other applications.

Inventory groupings can be created allowing for easy monitoring of network segments regardless of whether the appliances are managed by Scrutinizer or a third party application.

Cross Check was created directly in response to large MSP and enterprise customer demands for third party integration.

All these features require the Cross Check Module.
