The unique design of Cisco NAM combines a rich set of embedded data collection and analysis
capabilities with a remotely accessible, web-based management console, all of which reside on a
single blade (Figure 1) that is easily installed into the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Switch or the
Cisco 7600 Series Router.
As an integrated services module, Cisco NAM uses a rich set of Catalyst 6500 Series Switch and
Cisco 7600 Series Router features to collect both LAN and WAN traffic for analysis. Using the
Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) feature, Cisco NAM can monitor traffic from physical ports, virtual
LANs (VLANs), or Cisco EtherChannel connections of the local switch or router. Using VLAN
access control list (VACL)–based captures, traffic can be filtered before it is sent to Cisco NAM to
support the selective monitoring of large amounts of traffic or the gathering of traffic from WAN
interfaces. In addition, Cisco NAM can consume NetFlow Data Export (NDE) from local and
remote devices to provide both real-time and historical traffic usage data. Cisco NAM can also use
the Remote SPAN (RSPAN) or Encapsulated Remote SPAN (ERSPAN) features of the devices to
extend troubleshooting to remote parts of the network. By supporting these Catalyst 6500 Series
and Cisco 7600 Series features, Cisco NAM offers more ways to see and understand what’s
happening on the network. Cisco NAM offers extensive monitoring capabilities to meet diverse
network analysis needs in scalable switching and routing environments.
Cisco NAM includes an embedded, web-based Traffic Analyzer GUI (Figure 2), which provides
quick access to the configuration menus and application performance views for voice, video, and
TCP-based applications. It also provides traffic analysis views with the detailed information on
VLANs, Differentiated Services (DiffServ), hosts, conversation pairs, and application usage that is
essential for managing effective and reliable delivery of applications. The GUI can be accessed
from any desktop, eliminating the need to send personnel to remote sites or haul large amounts of
data to the central site. To enhance security, role-based access can be assigned and web-browser
access can be secured with up to 168-bit encryption.
