Visibility and Optimization for Networked Applications
Blue Coat PacketShaper is part of the Application Delivery Network (ADN), an infrastructure that provides complete application visibility, acceleration and security. PacketShaper supports ADN with unmatched visibility to optimize WAN performance. With PacketShaper, you can automatically classify and measure network applications, provide quality-ofservice (QoS) provisioning to control traffic and increase WAN capacity with compression capabilities.
Monitoring Module
Before you can optimize application performance, you need an accurate picture of network traffic. Blue Coat PacketShaper automatically classifies and measures network applications,
providing the insight of a probe but with deeper, application-intelligent Layer 7 Plus visibility. In addition to delivering network and application utilization and performance data, the Monitoring Module validates common protocols and tracks what happens to each connection established by each application. Monitoring also breaks down traffic per application and per site at a granular level, recording peak and average utilization rates, bytes transmitted, availability, utilization, top
talkers/listeners, network efficiency and much more. Once traffic has been identified,
PacketShaper monitors performance – over 100 stats per application class – in real time. Track how much bandwidth applications are using, the response times of key applications broken down
by network and server delay and key stats like TCP Healthy, efficiency and retransmissions to aid troubleshooting. Targeted packet traces can be captured for use with protocol analysis tools. Voice level intelligence tracks Mean Opinion Scores (MOS), jitter, delay and loss for voice and video conferencing traffic over Real Time Protocol – for real traffic in real time.
All of these capabilities can integrate into your performance management environment, including intelligent thresholds and alerts when problems are about to occur. Identify and classify applications with Layer 7 Plus technology. Monitor performance in real time and the information you need to solve performance issues.
Shaping Module
The Blue Coat PacketShaper Shaping Module provides QoS provisioning. This helps control traffic and assures that latency-sensitive, customer-critical applications get the bandwidth they need
to perform at their peak, while preventing recreational traffic from consuming too much bandwidth. With patented TCP rate control, the Shaping Module can guarantee per flow bandwidth and automatically enforce appropriate transfer rates for computers at the far end of the network to deliver true bidirectional QoS.
Fix critical application performance issues by allocating bandwidth to ensure applications perform.
Compression Module The Blue Coat PacketShaper Compression Module instantly increases
WAN capacity, improving application performance and user response times. Using a symmetric, application intelligent architecture and multiple data reduction methods, the Compression
Module intelligently selects what traffic to compress and which technology to use – increasing capacity from two to ten times, reducing bandwidth usage and minimizing WAN latency.
Create more bandwidth from existing physical links and enhance the user experience.v
