Eye of the Storm Modules

Visit our Resource Center...Entuity offers convenient device, functional, and integration modules to further illuminate your physical IT infrastructure and enhance the performance of end-to-end management solutions. Device and functional Modules enable you to flexibly tailor your management solution to the particular IT infrastructure unique to your organization. Integration Modules offer the depth and breadth of EYE's capability and the rich information available in the EYE CMDB to complementary enterprise solutions and overall management frameworks.

Device Modules
Fully integrated with EYE's core functionality, Device Modules extend EYE's physical IT infrastructure illumination. Automated and continuous discovery makes details of these components available in EYE's Component Viewer, real-time events are captured and alerted in the EYE Bulletin Board, while all extensive and historical details are stored In EYE's CMDB. Configure EYE to meet your unique requirements with optional Technology Modules that include:

  • NEW - EYE Management Module for VMware ESX Server - Simplifies management and reduces operational costs of VMware ESX servers. This optional module makes VM servers and their associated VMs visible and manageable in the context of the overall network infrastructure so businesses can reap the benefits of virtualization without running the risk of losing control to “VM-sprawl".

Functional Modules
Many businesses employ optional technologies available today to extend or improve the quality or performance of their network infrastructures. Although each is designed to deliver incremental benefits, these technologies are typically hard to use and configure. EYE Functional Modules give you the solutions you need to improve the capability of distributed agent management technologies, understand configuration changes to these technologies and their impact on overall network performance.

Configure EYE to meet your unique requirements with optional Functional Modules that include:

  • NEW for EYE 2008 SP1 - EYE NetFlow Analyzer Module - Provides in-depth visibility into network traffic and its patterns, real-time network behavior and how traffic impacts the network's overall health. With detailed insight to application flows and how they traverse infrastructure connectivity, businesses gain better control and predictability of user activity, capacity planning and traffic engineering, proactive infrastructure and security analysis, and service level reporting for accounting and billing. Read More >>
  • NEW for EYE 2008 SP1 - EYE Routing Protocols Extension Module - Delivers improved visibility and reduces the management burden of networks using the BGP, EIGRP, and OSPF protocols. With this module, EYE discovers, collects data, presents reports, and visualizes active routers and their adjacent peers for each protocol. Proactive management of these devices is enabled through active notification on routing peer-related events. Read More >>
  • EYE Quality of Service Module - Automatically and continually discovers and presents QoS configuration details in the context of overall network performance and availability. EYE QoS Module gives visibility to Cisco® QoS Modular CLI (QMC) configurations to improve performance of QoS enabled networks while reducing administration complexity and time. Read More >>
  • EYE MPLS IP VPN Module - Automatically and continually discovers configured MPLS IP VPNs, providing detailed inventory and performance information. EYE MPLS IP VPN Module gives visibility of MPLS IP VPN configurations in the context of your overall network to reduce administrative complexity and improve overall network performance. Read More >>
  • EYE Power Over Ethernet (PoE) Module - Extends EYE’s unique access layer managing strength to include monitoring and capturing details of power supplied to devices from Cisco Ethernet switches. EYE’s visibility into which guest and auxiliary VLANs are associated to an interface is important to maintaining both the performance and security of your network. Read More >>
  • EYE IP SLA Module - Simplifies and centralizes the setup and configuration of Cisco® IOS IP Service Level Agreements (IP SLA). Real-time network performance information including latency, jitter, packet loss, and web site download time is integrated within EYE for reporting. Read More >>

Integration Modules
One of Entuity's key objectives is the provision of flexible infrastructure management solutions. Integration and extensibility are key components of that objective.

Eye of the Storm's design reflects the real world, where customer requirements vary. This is especially so when companies are outsourcing their networks, or, maybe through mergers, taking on networks that use widely different technologies. What you then require is a product that is flexible, not just within its own configuration but also in its interaction with other applications.

Eye of the Storm is integrated with a whole series of leading system management tools, including:

  • NEW for EYE 2008 SP1 - EYE Integration Module for BMC® Atrium™ CMDB – Contributes EYE’s acclaimed depth of network inventory, performance, operational, and forensic details to the industry-leading BMC Atrium CMDB. Read More >>
  • NEW for EYE 2008 SP1 - EYE Integration Module for BMC® Event Manager – Extends EYE’s demonstrated breadth and depth of detecting and alerting on network infrastructure performance and operational issues to facilitate broader event correlation and proactive incident and problem management through the BMC Event Manager (BEM) product. Read More >>
  • EYE NetFlow Tracker Integration Module - Combines EYE’s depth of infrastructure, connectivity, and event detail with the complete flow-based information of Fluke NetFlow Tracker to improve the performance and return on investment of your most critical business asset – your network. With detailed insight to application flows and how they traverse infrastructure connectivity, businesses gain better control and predictability of user activity, capacity planning and traffic engineering, proactive infrastructure and security analysis, and service level reporting for accounting and billing. Read More >>
  • EYE Integration Module for BMC Remedy Action Request System - This bi-directional integration automates the workflow of generating Action Requests (ARs) on managed devices on your network. The EYE AR System Integration Module maximizes the accuracy and minimizes the effort necessary to create service processes in the BMC Remedy AR System. EYE's extensive IT infrastructure details are also linked to opened action requests to improve overall service resolution. Read More >>
  • EYE Netcool Integration Module - This integration module gives customers using Netcool/OMNIbus a greater return on investment from their end-to-end manager of managers. The module integrates EYE’s depth of event details to automate resolution and improve the return on investment of the overall solution. With a scalable architecture designed to efficiently serve multiple servers, individual customer data is kept separate and secure. This is ideal for service providers or whenever enterprises demand segregated environments. Read More >> Additional information is available on the IBM Tivoli OPAL Catalog online.
  • EYE TEC Integration Module - Forwards real-time events to IBM TEC and allows drill down from the TEC console back to the EYE interface. Forwarded events conform to TEC standards including severity levels, completeness of event details, and availability of event help. Read More >> Additional information is available on the IBM Tivoli OPAL Catalog online.
  • EYE Unified Communications Manager Module - Enables management of Cisco® Unified Communications Manager - formerly Cisco CallManager (CCM) - within the context of the overall network.
