At-a-Glance
Increased Visibility for Better Network and Application
Management
Networks have become increasingly complex with a multitude of
devices constantly being given access. The increases in mobility traffic,
software as a service (SaaS), and virtualization have contributed to the
stress on the network and its applications.

At one time it was sufficient to analyze network and application
performance using broad identifiers such as an IP address.
However, enterprises now need more detailed user information to
identify performance events and quickly perform root-cause analysis
and remediation.

However, enterprises now need more detailed user information to
identify performance events and quickly perform root-cause analysis
and remediation.
Cisco brings these features together by integrating the Cisco® Identity
Services Engine with partner network and application performance
management platforms. Together, the systems deliver in-depth
performance visibility along with relevant identity and device context.
The integration of these solutions helps the IT manager to correlate
contextual information with a performance event and to prioritize
investigation activities. Network and application management platforms
use the contextual information provided by the Identity Services Engine
for faster root-cause analysis and remediation of performance issues.

How the Integration Works
Integration makes new visibility and actions possible. Here’s how:
• The Identity Services Engine provides contextual user identity
and device information to network and application performance
management platforms. It uses Cisco Platform Exchange Grid (pxGrid)
technology to share contextual data such as user name, device type,
operating system, and network location.

• The management application can use this contextual information for
faster root-cause analysis and incident resolution. For example, use
this contextual information to understand specific types of endpoint
devices and OS version having performance issues with specific
WLAN segments in specific buildings.
