Exinda Enhances Network Management Capabilities with New VoIP and Citrix Monitoring
12 July 2006
Exinda Networks today announced two new Application Specific Analysis Modules (ASAM) that boost the network management capabilities of its existing application acceleration solutions. The new modules are Voice over IP (VoIP) and Citrix application monitoring.
Exinda's VoIP tracking module tracks Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) based call information including phone numbers, call duration and CODEC being used. The VoIP module tracks and reports in real-time on network utilization. Exinda's detailed reports help to identify top callers and receivers on the network and how they consume network resources. This information is highly useful for establishing network policies and network infrastructure planning. According to an Infonetics Research study entitled User Plans for VoIP, North America, 2006, 36 percent of large businesses are already using VoIP equipment and services.
Exinda's Citrix tracking module enables enterprises to classify and track Citrix Published Applications within Independent Computing Architecture (ICA) sessions. The module monitors which applications are being used, allowing the network manager to create the most efficient acceleration policies.
More than 180,000 organizations around the world use the Citrix Access Platform including all of the Fortune 100 companies and 98 percent of the Fortune Global 500.
"Network managers need a solution that marries application acceleration and application visibility," says Con Nikolouzakis, founder and executive director of Exinda Networks. "Exinda is one of the few vendors that provide customers with complete control of their infrastructure, both at a technical and a corporate level."
Beta Testers Praise Exinda's New Modules
Mornington Peninsula, a local government organization, beta tested Exinda's new VoIP and Citrix firmware. "With the new modules, we have gained greater visibility into our key Citrix application delivery system," said Daniel Stacey, information technology administration officer at Mornington Peninsula. "We can now focus on the top five published applications being used. Exinda eliminates the guess work. Now, we can prioritize network services to better match business requirements."
Availability
The new modules can be downloaded from the Exinda website at no cost for the 4700, 4800, 6700 or 6800 hardware platforms. The new firmware will also be available with the next service firmware in the third quarter of 2006.
