Tolly Group engineers examined the real-time performance of several key products: OmniPeek Version 2.0 real-time analysis software console; Omnipliance, a distributed agent platform hosting an Omni DNX Engine that captures data on a network segment to which it is attached and can perform real-time expert analysis.

Tolly Group engineers recorded the packet capture performance of the Omni solution in several key operational modes, examined the impact that OmniPeek management traffic has on network utilization, demonstrated the expert system capabilities of the solution, and identified the scalability capabilities of Omni DNX Engine in Expert Analysis mode.
