Flow Analysis provides detailed information on network traffic flows between devices on your network – combine this with the power of WhatsUp Gold network management and apply not only the fix, but find the cure.
Use Flow Monitor to monitor and analyse flow data either from your flow enabled network switches and routers or from your non-flow capable devices using Flow Publisher, or do both.
| Manage Bandwidth | Determine exactly which users, applications or hosts are consuming network bandwidth |
| Resolve Congestion | Track and resolve network traffic or congestion problems |
| Identify Applications | Monitor the network for unauthorized application usage; easily detect streaming audio, video, or file sharing applications |
| Ensure Performance | Ensure critical business applications get the bandwidth they need |
| Enhance Security | Detect DOS attacks and other rogue activity directed at your network |
And with Flow Publisher you can do it all with your existing hardware, no upgrade required!

Flow monitoring lets you find the solution. Easily view flows between networks, devices and servers. Identify problem applications, protocols and services.

Start using flow technology within your existing network by deploying the FlowPublisher agent. Keep your existing legacy network devices, but add valuable flow data collection - and then move it to any segment of your network.

Easily identify problem applications and protocols on your Windows servers, and plan for upgrades, moves and changes using a simple, visual representation of your server data flows.

Finding performance bottlenecks & bandwidth reducing configuration errors is a snap when you deploy the Flow Publisher agent within your Storage Area Networks. And best of all, it's available right from your WhatsUp Gold dashboard.

There's no need for disposal or costly infrastructure upgrades – Flow Publisher can provide flow information from legacy 2900, 3500 & 3750 Cisco series devices along with stacks of non-flow enabled networking equipment from 3COM, Alcatel, Juniper, HP & many other vendors.

Extend your network visibility and go beyond simple up-down availability and identify the actual causes of network traffic congestion with WhatsUp Gold and Flow Monitoring.
