Q: How do I configure and manage all these MVO1200 products?
A: All MVO1200 products installed throughout a network can be managed and configured from a single web-based console.
Q: MVO1200 is built to optimize WAN connections, but does it work over LANs as well?
A: MVO1200 optimization improves performance from point to point, regardless of where the endpoints are on a network.
MVS1300 System Management suite questions
Q: Can MVS1300 manage a mixed virtualization environment? For example, Xen and VMware on the same network?
A: MVS1300 is the only platform you need for managing multiple virtualization platforms throughout the enterprise. Agents install on the various virtualization machines and are accessed through the MVS1300 web-based management console.
Q: Does MVS1300 affect virtual server performance?
A: MVS1300 management agents have small resource and memory requirements, and therefore have little to no effect on virtualization performance.
MVR1400 Route Analytics suite questions
Q: Why should I use MVR1400 rather than the built-in IP tools that came with our switches and routers?
A: First of all, MVR1400 monitors and analyzes IP traffic regardless of vendor equipment or network topology. There is no need to install multiple monitors or SNMP forms. Secondly, MVR1400 monitors IP traffic in real time, rather than by polling, and is much more likely to discover intermittent IP errors as they occur, rather than the hit-or-miss nature of IP SNMP polling.
Q: How long can I keep MVR1400 network state histories?
A: The frequency and retention period are user-definable. Each environment is different, and administrators should set MVR1400 accordingly, including archiving of past logs.
