SPECTRUM 8.1Redefining Network Fault Management
> Highlights of SPECTRUM 8.1 include:
“Change aware” root cause analysis
Sustainable service quality policies
Continued expansion of supported networking technologies
Flexible and scalable packaging
7 April 12, 2023 CA Confidential – Provided under NDA
“Change Aware” Root Cause Analysis
> Today’s networks = 1000’s business-critical devices
> Configuration tracking and accuracy is enormous task
> Recent article in Network World's Network/Systems Management Newsletter (05/16/07)
“… up to 80% of application performance problems and network downtime can be attributed to some configuration change or error”
> SPECTRUM 8.1 again raises the bar for RCA First application to tightly integrate device configuration
change monitoring into root cause analysis
Knowledge of configuration changes in analysis makes SPECTRUM uniquely “change aware”
