FEATURES
Monitoring Module
Before you can optimize application
performance, you need an accurate
picture of network traffic. Blue Coat
PacketShaper automatically classifies
and measures network applications,
providing the insight of a probe but
with deeper, application-intelligent
Layer 7 Plus visibility. In addition to
delivering network and application
utilization and performance data, the
Monitoring Module validates common
protocols and tracks what happens to
each connection established by each
application. Monitoring also breaks
down traffic per application and per
site at a granular level, recording peak
and average utilization rates, bytes
transmitted, availability, utilization, top
talkers/listeners, network efficiency
and much more.

Once traffic has been identified,
PacketShaper monitors performance –
over 100 stats per application class – in
real time. Track how much bandwidth
applications are using, the response
times of key applications broken down
by network and server delay and key
stats like TCP Healthy, efficiency and
retransmissions to aid troubleshooting.
Targeted packet traces can be captured
for use with protocol analysis tools.

Shaping Module
The Blue Coat PacketShaper Shaping
Module provides QoS provisioning. This
helps control traffic and assures that
latency-sensitive, customer-critical
applications get the bandwidth they need
to perform at their peak, while preventing
recreational traffic from consuming
too much bandwidth. With patented
TCP rate control, the Shaping Module
helps control traffic and assures that
latency-sensitive, customer-critical
applications get the bandwidth they need
to perform at their peak, while preventing
recreational traffic from consuming
too much bandwidth. With patented
TCP rate control, the Shaping Module
can guarantee per flow bandwidth
and automatically enforce appropriate
transfer rates for computers at the far
end of the network to deliver true bi-
directional QoS.

Compression Module
The Blue Coat PacketShaper
Compression Module instantly increases
WAN capacity, improving application
performance and user response
times. Using a symmetric, application
intelligent architecture and multiple data
reduction methods, the Compression
Module intelligently selects what traffic
to compress and which technology to
use – increasing capacity from two to ten
times, reducing bandwidth usage and
minimizing WAN latency.

Visibility and OptimizatiOn fOr netwOrked applicatiOns
Blue Coat PacketShaper is part of the Application Delivery Network (ADN), an infrastructure that provides complete
application visibility, acceleration and security. PacketShaper supports ADN with unmatched visibility to optimize WAN
performance. With PacketShaper, you can automatically classify and measure network applications, provide quality-of-
service (QoS) provisioning to control traffic and increase WAN capacity with compression capabilities.
