GigaStor Probe Appliance
The GigaStor is a rack-mountable 4U unit specifically
designed to capture hours, days, even weeks worth of
full-duplex traffic at gigabit line rate for data mining.
Go back in time and isolate issues down to the nanosecond
with a simple time-based navigation interface and reconstruct
captured data (web pages, e-mails, phone conversations,
instant messages). The GigaStor also allows for multiple
sessions by users and individual levels of probe access.

Network Instruments Management
Server
The NIMS retains a list of usernames, passwords, and
permission levels for multiple probes on the network
to globally authenticate users. NIMS can link up to
a local Windows system, Active Directory server, or
RADIUS system to consolidate user account lists. For
the network manager, the NIMS provides centralised licensing,
security, and an update system as well as failover redundancy
for more efficient probe management. For network administrators,
the NIMS provides shared access to analysis tools, including
Observer's filter library.
