OmniEngine

Distributed 24/7 Network Monitoring and Analysis Software

Building on WildPackets’ award-winning network analysis technology, OmniEngine software performs real-time network analysis on traffic from one or more network interfaces, including Ethernet, 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless, Gigabit, 10 Gigabit, and WAN. OmniEngine captures and analyzes data in real-time, and records data for post-capture analysis. With WildPackets OmniEngines software, network engineers can monitor their entire enterprise-wide network and rapidly identify and remedy performance bottlenecks, even those occurring at remote locations, without leaving the office.

OmniEngine software runs as a service on dedicated Windows servers as well as on WildPackets turnkey Omnipliances. By deploying OmniEngines in each business location, a network engineering team gains real-time visibility into all its remote networks. Enterprises that cannot afford to staff each office with a network engineer can use OmniEngine software or turnkey Omnipliances to ensure that every business location receives the network engineering support it requires.

OmniEngine provides comprehensive network service monitoring and analytics, including:

Comprehensive Network Infrastructure Monitoring, including 24 x7 monitoring and analysis of network traffic
Expert Systems Diagnoses, including streams-based network traffic analysis and correlations between events and conversations
Statistical Analysis, including packet flows and details about nodes, protocols, and sub-protocols
Detailed network packet analysis, including protocol decodes and descriptions of physical errors
Application layer expert diagnoses, user satisfaction scores, and application response time analysis
VoIP and Video analysis, including MOS and R-Factor scores, as well as Expert analysis
Sophisticated alarms and to alert network engineers to potential issues before they become major problems
Long-term storage of network traffic for forensics analysis
Integration with System Management Software
When network problems occur, OmniEngine can execute SNMP traps, notifying SNMP monitoring systems such as HP OpenView of potential problems. Because it captures the traffic that generated the error, OmniEngine provides network engineers the detailed information they need in order to investigate and resolve problems

OmniEngine Enterprise

OmniEngine Product Comparison Chart

Distributed 24/7 Network Analyzer and Monitor

OmniEngine Enterprise extends the network analysis capabilities to remote locations, performing data capture and network analysis on multiple network interfaces, and over all network topologies, including wireless (802.11), Gigabit networks and WAN links. This product is best deployed in workgroups or at remote locations, providing continuous network monitoring and analysis without the need for local network engineering support. To completely cover your network analysis needs, one or more OmniEngines should be deployed at each remote location, with every server farm, and within the network operations core.

OmniEngine Desktop

Desktop Troubleshooting Engine

WildPackets’ OmniEngine Desktop is a Windows service that runs on desktop computers and captures packets for analysis. OmniEngine Desktop provides network engineers with the visibility into end user computers they need in order to accelerate troubleshooting and to maximize productivity. Packet captures can be initiated by network engineers or Help Desk representatives running the OmniPeek Analysis Console; alternatively, captures can be initiated automatically when specific trigger conditions are met. Once a capture is complete, network engineers can transfer the packets into OmniPeek for analysis. OmniPeek’s wealth of analysis features, including 7-layer decodes and Visual Expert analytics, make it easy to find and fix problems quickly.
