Case Study: Nephos6 achieves faster, more secure IPv6 deployments with NETSCOUT OptiView XG Network Analysis Tablet

Professional Services Firm Ensures Secure and Successful IPv6 Deployments for Customers with the OptiView XG Network Analysis Tablet

Nephos6, an IPv6 and cloud professional services firm in Raleigh, NC, needed to quickly build a network environment to demonstrate multiple IPv6 technologies for customer training and transaction programs. Their challenge was to validate designs in lab and controlled rollouts, troubleshoot integration issues during implementation, and detect unintended or rogue IPv6 deployments while relying on portable, IPv6-capable analysis tools.

Nephos6 adopted NETSCOUT’s OptiView XG Network Analysis Tablet, using its fast discovery, IPv6 tunneling identification, router-advertisement analysis, and services-detection features to validate configurations, identify 6in4/6to4/ISATAP/Teredo tunnels and tunnel endpoints, and support remote troubleshooting. The OptiView XG reduced deployment time through accurate device discovery, simplified root-cause analysis, helped locate and remediate rogue IPv6 endpoints, and enabled remote collaboration and knowledge transfer between field staff and IPv6 experts.
