Fortune 500 Retail Company - Customer Case Study

Fortune 500 Retail Company faced packet loss and network blind spots that were impacting network and application performance. To gain end-to-end visibility they deployed Keysight visibility solutions — including network taps, network packet brokers, traffic deduplication and advanced feature modules — to capture, deduplicate and aggregate traffic for analysis.

Keysight configured taps and a packet broker to deduplicate traffic headed to the company’s Riverbed SteelCentral ARX and to aggregate WAN traffic for analysis, lowering processor load on inline WAN acceleration and monitoring appliances. The solution improved network and application reliability, delivered a return on investment within one year, and reduced traffic load on monitoring and security tools by almost 60%.
