Overview

The world may not be flat, but it sure is big. If you’re trying to manage a geographically distributed enterprise network – whether it’s scattered across the country or around the globe – you know how tricky this can be.

As a network engineer, you need to proactively maintain network stability and instantly respond to any network issues, wherever in the world they may occur. And you need to ensure network resources are correctly utilized to optimally deliver business services across your networks. Until teleporter technology is perfected (we’re working on that), you’re going to have to do all of this remotely, and without impacting WAN performance.

Say hello to Orion Enterprise Operations Console (EOC). Orion EOC provides a consolidated command center to monitor your entire enterprise network. It gives you unified visibility into remote Orion servers running Orion Network Performance Monitor (NPM) and its associated modules.

Orion EOC’s point-and-click setup allows it to be installed and configured in just minutes, unlike complex enterprise network management solutions, which require expensive consultants and significant effort to deploy. Orion EOC’s WAN-optimized architecture scales as your network grows; in fact, with Orion EOC, you can monitor as few as several hundred network elements to well over one million elements by consolidating data from dozens of remote Orion server deployments.

Features

Consolidated Enterprise-wide Console:

Orion EOC delivers a command center for monitoring your enterprise-wide network health, providing a single interactive screen that aggregates data from multiple Orion deployments. This simplifies the management of large, distributed networks by providing a unified view into the performance of your network and also accelerates your ability to identify and resolve issues.

Point-and-click Setup:

Orion EOC enables you to quickly begin monitoring the network; it is so intuitive and easy to setup that you will never have to rely on (or pay) consultants to realize the value of the solution. Orion EOC can be installed and configured literally in a matter of minutes with a simple point-and-click setup process that eliminates hours of manual configuration.

WAN-optimized Architecture:

Orion EOC scales to monitor more than a million network elements using a WAN-optimized architecture that prevents any degradation in network performance. That means you can rest assured that regardless of how big or fast your network grows, Orion EOC has you covered.

MSP-friendly Architecture:

Perfect for Managed Service Providers (MSPs), Orion EOC consolidates critical monitoring data from multiple customer sites onto a single screen, freeing you to invest your time in managing networks instead of managing your network management software. EOC also allows MSPs to monitor overlapping IP addresses, eliminating the need for clients to change IP configurations due to cross-site IP address conflicts.

Global Top 10:

To ensure that you are focused on the most critical issues in your network environment, Orion EOC unifies Global Top 10 views of bandwidth utilization, response time, CPU, memory and disk space utilization, and more. In just a glance, you can quickly identify problems and begin troubleshooting by drilling down to determine the root cause.

Seamless Orion Integration:

With Orion EOC, it’s easy to quickly diagnose global network issues with enterprise-wide visibility into remote deployments of Orion NPM modules, including NetFlow Traffic Analyzer, IP SLA Manager, IP Address Manager, and Application Performance Monitor.

Network Atlas

Network Atlas allows you to view your network pictorially and visually track performance statistics in real time via dynamic network maps. With Orion EOC, you can choose from several built-in geographic templates or you can import a logical image of your network based on floor, building, department, or larger geographic location. Multiple network maps can also be nested to provide drill-down capabilities directly to Orion NPM nodes.

Custom Views:

We understand that when it comes to network management, one size doesn’t fit all. So Orion EOC facilitates the creation of custom views, giving you the information you need to manage your network most effectively. Using the point-and-click interface, you can add, remove and rearrange resources, as well as modify menu bars – in just minutes!
