NAM Scenarios
Chapter 3 Outline
This chapter explores several scenarios to illustrate how you can use the various Network Analysis Modules
(NAM) to gain visibility into your network. These scenarios will help you understand how to configure and use
the NAM to solve problems as or before they arise.
In general, the NAM and its embedded Traffic Analyzer software can help you quickly determine how various
services on your network are performing, as well as, the applications and users that consume services and
resources on your network. By going through these scenarios you will learn how to configure the NAM to
collect the data you want, and how to use its embedded Traffic Analyzer software to view service and
application performance and the various levels of traffic statistics that the NAM offers. But first, let’s look at
the network environment that we will use in these scenarios.
