NetFlow and packet data in one box offer unprecedented levels of breadth and depth: NetFlow and 
packet data complement each other to provide a powerful monitoring solution, all in one box. With expanded 
NetFlow reporting capabilities, and the ability to perform packet capture on an Encapsulated Remote Switched 
Port Analyzer (ERSPAN) data source, Cisco WAAS NAM VSB can offer an extensive view of traffic usage 
information that can be combined with packet-
based data to perform a “deeper dive” to quickly spot and 
address issues that affect performance. 
● 
A Performance Database lets you flash back to the past: 
The Cisco NAM’s new Performance Database 
stores computed, historical data so you can flash back to the past to learn what happened on your network 
when a particular event occurred. The data is available to troubleshoot unanticipated performance issues or to 
analyze optimization needs.
