NetFlow Optimizer
Unify & Analyze Your Network Data. Achieve Exceptional Visibility & Security
NetFlow Optimizer (NFO) empowers you to see everything on your network. It collects data from devices and cloud platforms, giving you real-time insights and advanced security. NFO helps optimize performance, simplify management, and proactively stop threats.
Popular Destinations for NetFlow Optimizer Output
NetFlow Optimizer offers a variety of destinations to send your processed network flow data, ensuring it seamlessly integrates with your existing security and analysis tools.
Integration with Splunk
Send flow data to Splunk Enterprise, Splunk Cloud, Splunk Enterprise Security, Splunk ITSI, or Splunk Observability Platforms.
Integration with Sumo Logic
Send flow data to Sumo Logic Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) for in-depth security analysis.
Integration with Azure Sentinel
Send flow data to directly to Azure Analytics Workspace for integration with Microsoft Azure Sentinel.
Unveil the Power Behind Network Visibility
NetFlow Optimizer takes the complexity out of network visibility. Imagine a powerful engine that gathers data from your network devices and cloud environments. This data is then enriched with valuable context, transformed for seamless integration with other systems, and ultimately presented in a clear and actionable format.
This diagram provides a visual overview of this process. Following the diagram, we’ll explore each component in detail, explaining how it contributes to NetFlow Optimizer’s robust network visibility capabilities.
Here’s a closer look at each component within NetFlow Optimizer and its role in network visibility.
The Engine at the Heart
The NFO Server acts as a high-performance processing engine, receiving data from network devices and virtual environments. It ensures data validity, applies real-time analytics, custom logic, and converts data into compatible formats for other systems, optimizing processing and facilitating seamless data transfer.
The Central Nervous System
The NFO Controller serves as the central command hub for NetFlow Optimizer, ensuring smooth operation and communication. It monitors server health, configures changes, updates enrichment data, and facilitates communication with external systems, offering seamless data delivery to popular destinations like Kafka, Azure Blob Storage, and Amazon OpenSearch.
External Data Feeder for NFO (EDFN)
EDFN enhances NetFlow Optimizer by enriching flow data with additional insights. It integrates security threat lists to identify potential threats, provides geographic context with Geo IP information, identifies VMs and user identities, and ingests cloud flow logs from major providers like AWS, Azure, OCI, and GCP for a comprehensive network view.
By working together, these core components empower NetFlow Optimizer to deliver comprehensive network visibility, enabling you to gain deep insights into your network traffic and make informed decisions for security, performance optimization, and resource allocation.
