Cisco AXP – nGenius Integrated Agent for Cisco Integrated Services
Routers

Product Overview

The Cisco

AXP – nGenius

Integrated Agent for Cisco Integrated Services Routers (ISRs) embeds software-based

probe technology into the routers to provide cost-effective visibility into the performance of branch-office

environments.

Cisco Application Extension Platform (AXP) is used as the hosting environment to embed nGenius Integrated Agent

into the routers. The Cisco AXP hosting environment provides the infrastructure to securely host, install, upgrade,

and manage the nGenius Integrated Agent application. This integrated solution complements the existing nGenius

hardware instrumentation strategy by extending the NetScout intelligent data source family further out into the

network to bring cost-effective visibility closer to the user. This enhanced visibility further strengthens the Cisco

Borderless Networks initiative that enables organizations and individuals to communicate anytime, anywhere, in any

way they wish.

Figure 1 shows how Cisco AXP – nGenius Integrated Agent facilitates end-to-end monitoring as well as site-to-site

monitoring.

Taking advantage of the powerful services virtualization capabilities of the Cisco AXP, organizations gain the

benefits of unified service delivery management without increasing the hardware footprint and complexity in the

branch. This reduces the cost of operations by freeing up valuable rack space, reducing management complexities,

simplifying remote location asset management, and reducing power consumption. Consequently, IT staff can

develop a comprehensive, unified service-delivery management strategy that can scale to cope with current and

future demands from a widening array of services and applications, while at the same time further extending their

view of network and application performance.
