AUSTIN, TX — (Marketwired) — 05/23/13 — SolarWinds (NYSE: SWI), a leading provider of powerful and affordable , today introduced new network route and multicast monitoring capabilities within its flagship network management product, SolarWinds (NPM). SolarWinds NPM offers IT professionals powerful network fault, availability and performance management, simplifying detection, diagnosis and resolution of network issues before outages occur.
As today-s dynamic networks grow in size and complexity, the number of active routing topology states grows exponentially. With the new feature, SolarWinds NPM takes fault and performance monitoring to the next level by providing real-time network route information alongside device status and performance statistics. With support for major routing protocols including RIP v2, OSPF v2, and BGP, IT pros can now view routing tables, changes in default routes, BGP transitions and flapping routes in an intuitive web-based console.
Additionally, many advanced network services including multimedia distribution, finance, education, and desktop imaging rely on IP multicast to reduce network bandwidth usage. SolarWinds NPM-s new feature enables IT pros to monitor routers, switches and end-points that receive and forward multicast packets by automatically detecting and importing existing multicast groups and applications.
Other new updates to SolarWinds NPM include advanced interface filtering by hardware type, name, VLAN and more for importation of new nodes and interface; and interface auditing.
