Monitoring and Analysis

The Cisco NAM Traffic Analyzer Release 5.0 introduces a redesigned interface and user experience, with more intuitive workflows and interactive reporting capabilities.

There are two types of dashboards in NAM 5.0: One type is the “summary” views found under the Monitor menu, and the other type is the “over time” views found under the Analyze menu. The Monitor dashboards allow you to view network traffic, application performance, site performance, and alarms at a glance. From there, you can isolate one area, for example an application with response time issues, and then drill-down to the Analyze dashboard for further investigation.

This chapter provides information about monitoring your network traffic and analyzing the information presented.
