<strong>Cisco</strong> Network Analysis Module<br />
The <strong>Cisco</strong> Network Analysis Module (NAM) enables network administrators to understand, manage,<br />
and improve how applications and services are delivered over network infrastructures. The NAM offers<br />
the following services:<br />
• Flow-based traffic analysis of applications, hosts, and conversations<br />
• Performance-based measurements on application, server, and network latency<br />
• Quality of experience metrics for network-based services such as VoIP<br />
• Problem analysis using packet captures<br />
From an FCAPS management perspective, the NAM is most applicable as a performance management<br />
tool within an enterprise medianet, although both the packet capture and the monitoring statistics can<br />
also be used for fault management purposes. The current release of NAM software is version 4.1. The<br />
NAM software runs on the platforms listed in Table 6-2. Specific hardware configurations and OS<br />
versions required for support of NAM modules and/or software can be found in the documentation for<br />
each specific platform.<br />
