The project started as a network migration project of old systems to new systems and new software versions. Due to the capabilities of the Quantea QP, many other issues were discovered during this project and the system was also used to investigate other areas on the network and is currently integrated with the network full-time to ensure network optimization, QoS, and enhance security.
Problem:
The network is built on a Cisco switching and routing platform made up of hundreds of Cisco devices. The network had been having issues for a long time and the current analysis and troubleshooting process had been going on for over a month, incorporating almost 30 people without any success!
Solution:
Due to Quantea’s unique capture and search capabilities, the resulting PCAP files were able to be searched quickly in full detail. This led to the use of matching unique strings of information that identified issues such as misconfigured switches and defective devices.
This project was done in only in two days with only 5 network administrators!
