WebNMS Framework Customer Spotlight - Captus Networks

Also Available in PDF format (284 KB)

Customer : Captus Networks
Industry : Intrusion Prevention / Network Integirty
Application Name: Captus IPS View EMS


Business Challenge

Captus Networks wanted to offer its customers an easy-to-use application for managing the Captus IPS 4000 series elements. Management of these elements becomes a critical component in successful implementation of network-based intrusion prevention.

Captus Networks decided to build a fully-featured Element Management System with enterprise grade interoperability and service provider grade scalability as the Captus IPS 4000 series elements are deployed in enterprise as well as service provider networks. Captus Networks wanted the EMS to be comprehensive with full range of FCAPS functionality enabling operators to configure, manage, and monitor Captus IPS 4000 series elements.

Given a short time-to-market, Captus Networks had to outsource the EMS development project and evaluated four vendors. While outsourced solutions offered better overall cost benefits, Captus Networks also evaluated vendors for breadth of solution, references, reliability, and financial stability.

Solution:

Captus Networks chose WebNMS Framework as the platform for their EMS development project. Using WebNMS Framework, the WebNMS Framework professional services team built the fully-featured Captus IPS View Element Management System.

Featuring a full suite of FCAPS applications, Captus IPS View software provides centralized element management for Captus IPS 4000 series elements.

Captus IPS View EMS fully leverages the fault management capability of WebNMS Framework, which is critical for ensuring high availability that the Captus IPS 4000 series solution offers.

“AdventNet outscored the competition on features, development criteria, and reliability. However, the key deciding criteria were the highly collaborative approach, close working relationship, top-notch technical support, and the professional services offered by AdventNet. - John Ko, Manager, Product Marketing,Captus Networks.
