PortIQ™ Appliances

Stop flying blind – Quickly discover switch ports and intelligently optimize your infrastructure

Do you know how many of your switch ports are under-utilized and where you have excess capacity before making a new switch purchase? Can you easily locate and unplug a device marked as a security risk by a firewall? Are you aware of the existence of open network drops in common areas and meeting rooms? While troubleshooting network problems on a device, can you find out port speed and status without tracing the cable from the device to the switch? Without network monitoring chances are that you are flying blind when making critical decisions and troubleshooting.

With PortIQ™ appliances you can quickly :
- Eliminate port wastage, saving CapEx;
- Enhance security with vital port intelligence; and
- Improve visibility for faster troubleshooting.

PortIQ Appliance with Capacity Management

The Capacity Management version of the PortIQ appliance includes a powerful software application that provides switch and port utilization and capacity reports. The reports provide a comprehensive inventory of network infrastructure and enable network managers to spot potential port exhaustion, identify devices with low utilization and re-balance their infrastructure to match capacity with needs and avoid unnecessary purchases. This results in a very fast ROI. The Capacity Management version of the PortIQ appliance can be used as a standalone system, and also includes the capabilities of the IPAM Connector, which means that it can be connected to an Infoblox Grid to enhance IPAM data with switch, port, VLAN and other data.

PortIQ Appliance with IPAM Connector

With the IPAM Connector version, the PortIQ appliance is used for port discovery only and enhances the IPAM database in an Infoblox Grid by associating discovered switch and port information with IP, MAC and other IPAM data. This additional information helps network administrators to secure and troubleshoot networks faster.

The PortIQ appliance associates the following information for each IP and MAC address in the Infoblox IPAM database:

Switch Name, Switch Port, Switch Description, VLAN Name, VLAN Number, Switch status, Port Speed/Duplex, Link status, First seen and Last seen times.
