Network Performance Inc. improves Internet costs and communications for New England businesses by offering Bandwidth Analysis Service
South Burlington, VT – April 23, 2004
Building on its leadership position in business network security and services, Network Performance Inc. (NPI) today unveiled their Bandwidth Analysis Service for businesses in the New England Region. The new service will allow organizations to control costs and improve Internet communication. Uncontrolled bandwidth usage, unapproved applications and protocols, Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, network-borne viruses, and poor application performance are among the many problems that can be pinpointed by NPI's Bandwidth Analysis Service.
NPI's Bandwidth Analysis Service is a first-step approach to traffic management and is designed to provide detailed views of application performance and bandwidth utilization to the Internet. Companies need to fully understand their Internet congestion and application performance bottlenecks in order to improve efficiency, enhance profitability, and protect business process investments. NPI's Service provides reports that deliver traffic classification, monitoring, and bandwidth details. The bandwidth analysis tools provide tremendous depth by employing a host of metrics including: user, department, protocol, application, and time-of-day. The process is non-disruptive to client Internet communications. Reports detailing the bandwidth analysis are prepared by NPI and reviewed with the client.
NPI has selected the Allot Communications NetEnforcer model AC202/2M, which can monitor up to 2Mpbs of Internet traffic, from several available in the industry. This sophisticated product consists of a stand-alone appliance that can monitor, analyze, manage, and track bandwidth traffic as it flows through the client's network and onto the Internet. NetEnforcer easily integrates into any existing Internet connection. NPI's technicians and consultants have been directly trained by Allot Communications.
NPI's Bandwidth Analysis Service helps clients maximize their business potential by stabilizing mission critical application functions, smoothing network performance, and maximizing investment by identifying unnecessary connections or applications to be throttled back. Bandwidth Analysis allows the purchase of additional bandwidth to be delayed or confirmed based on actual performance. The Bandwidth Analysis Service can confirm that business functions have consumed the existing connection or may indicate that the mission critical applications are not getting the highest priority on the connection. Many times critical functions are squeezed out by Internet surfing, Web streaming, or Instant Messaging. NPI then advises the client regarding the best way to move forward, whether through purchase of additional bandwidth or managing the existing traffic, for the client's individual business.
Network Performance Inc. is located in South Burlington, Vermont. The company focus is creating reliable, secure business computer networks. Advances in network security, virus protection and e-mail continue to create new opportunities to provide solutions to today's business needs. Expertise in security, infrastructure design, operating systems, and their own SpamRejectortm service makes NPI a strong and innovative force in the marketplace.
