INTEROP, Las Vegas, NV - April 29, 2008 - WildPackets, Inc., a leading
provider of network and application analysis solutions, and Gigamon, manufacturer of
the GigaVUE™ family of Data Access Switches, today announced a technology and reseller partnership. Under the agreement, WildPackets will offer a combined solution that leverages intelligent pattern match filtering in Gigamon’s GigaVUE data access
switch with Omnipliance, WildPackets’ Distributed Network Recorder, to provide
organizations the control needed to analyze and optimize 10GbE deployments.
Though 10GbE provides ample bandwidth to handle increasing network loads
and various services, like any other network it needs to be properly managed, monitored
and secured. The WildPackets and Gigamon solution brings real-time visibility and
expert analysis to 10GbE networks.
“While other offerings can only analyze short bursts of 10GbE traffic, the
combined power of WildPackets and Gigamon delivers unlimited full line-rate analysis,”
said Tony Barbagallo, vice president of marketing at WildPackets.
Combining WildPackets’ Omnipliance – a turn-key appliance that runs
WildPackets’ OmniEngine and sends real-time analytics and monitoring results to a
central OmniPeek console – with the 1U GigaVUE data access switch gives network
engineers immediate real-time visibility into their high-speed networks for analysis,
application monitoring, and VoIP troubleshooting.
“If you’re using a 10GbE network, undoubtedly the network is a vital asset for
your business,” said Tom Gallatin, vice president of marketing and sales at Gigamon. “In
addition to providing access for other security and compliance tools, GigaVUE combined
with Omnipliance provides a combined troubleshooting and analysis solution and the
best real-time visibility into the 10GbE network available today.”
