Standards Based Network Security Tools

These days, when your core main switch starts throwing errors, you can match IPs and MAC addresses from the console of one network tool to another, trace cables in closets, and read switch logs to track down the problem device and its user. Or you can enter the problem IP in your Locate network appliance and go directly to the problem machine and its user to resolve the issue?typically a bad network card or an incorrect network protocol.

Locate 4.0 from eTelemetry has the unique capability of dynamically discovering the physical location, switch port, department, name, and phone number of the person behind a problem IP address without making use of software agents installed on every network machine. This makes it a key complement to the range of network diagnostic and management tools currently available. Processor Editorial Article - Standards-Based Network Security Tools
