SolarWinds Network Configuration Manager Integrates With Cisco SmartAdvisor to Analyze the Health of Networks and Provide Actionable Recommendations to Improve Network Reliability and Service Delivery

テキサス州オースティン, 2015年11月05日 - (ACN Newswire) - SolarWinds (NYSE: SWI), a leading provider of powerful and affordable hybrid IT infrastructure management software, today announced that network engineers can now perform health checks on their networks using the new SolarWinds(R) Network Configuration Manager (NCM) connector for Cisco(R) SmartAdvisor(TM).

Network engineers and IT managers frequently face challenges due to device obsolescence, defects, vulnerabilities and lack of support, putting networks at greater risk of downtime and loss of data and confidentiality. Regular network health analysis can deliver the diagnostic insight engineers need to improve network security, reliability and performance.

"In-depth assessment and analysis of network health does not happen often enough within most organizations due to the substantial effort required to collect the data and the specialization needed to conduct the analysis and make impactful recommendations. This ultimately puts networks at risk," said Nikki Jennings, group vice president, product strategy, SolarWinds. "Now, with SolarWinds Network Configuration Manager's integration with Cisco SmartAdvisor, network engineers get critical, actionable insights so they can better protect their networks, maximize the value of hardware investments, lower operating costs, and improve network reliability and service delivery."
