About
LiveWire is a high-performance network packet-capture and forensic-analysis platform that captures and stores detailed packet data across physical, virtual, on-premises, and cloud networks. It is designed to give Network-Ops and Security teams deep visibility into network traffic, from data centers to SD-WAN edges, remote sites, and cloud environments, filling in the blind spots left by telemetry-only monitoring. LiveWire delivers real-time packet capture that can be selectively stored and analyzed with advanced workflows, visualizations, and correlation tools; it can automatically detect encrypted traffic and store only what’s needed (headers or metadata), saving disk space while preserving forensics data. It supports “intelligent packet capture,” converting packet-level data into enriched flow-based metadata (called LiveFlow), which can feed into the companion monitoring platform BlueCat LiveNX.

About
It’s often not enough to focus on latency or bandwidth utilization. Network stress testing can reveal how spikes in packet levels may impact network device performance. The WAN Killer tool in Engineer’s Toolset serves as a network stress tester by generating and sending packets to provide a realistic idea of how devices would perform in the event of sudden or extreme jumps in traffic. The information you get from a network stress test can help you figure out how to strengthen your infrastructure before serious issues occur. Being able to simulate network traffic means you can take a proactive approach to managing network performance, which is useful if, for instance, you plan to roll out a new application to your network. You can also send simulated traffic to see if your application’s traffic will receive appropriate priority. If not, you can find and resolve the issues that may stand in the way of providing the best quality of service.
