Freehold Regional High School District
The IT infrastructure for the Freehold Regional High School District was decentralized and challenging to manage. With this being the case, the network administrators at FRHSD were left with the daunting task of monitoring and managing their vast IT infrastructure to ensure that the network performed at its peak constantly. This task was made even more difficult by the fact that the IT staff had no network management software to assist them. They were left to keep the network up and running completely on their own, which made it much harder than necessary to pinpoint network issues and keep uptime at a maximum.
Toyotetsu North America
Toyotetsu North America (TTNA) was in need of a cost-effective solution to aid them in monitoring and managing their network. With a small staff, the responsibility of keeping TTNA’s network up and running 24/7 was too much, and there was simply not enough time for them to devote the proper amount of attention to this task.

Management & Compliance Best Practices: Healthcare Industry Sector
To protect and secure electronic protected health information or patient records, you need to know who is accessing which systems and data, and what users are doing at all times. Records of all events taking place in your environment are being logged right now into event logs, W3C logs or Syslog files across your servers, workstations and networking devices. Think about it log files contain complete audit trails of access, additions, deletions or manipulation of key information (i.e. employee records, patient health data, etc.).
Best Practices: IT Management for Manufacturing
IT professionals working in the manufacturing sector must establish a secure, efficient and regulatory compliant IT infrastructure. With disparate plants and locations, a complex underlying infrastructure, mission-critical applications and operational flows spanning across suppliers, distributors, customers and retailers, your role is more challenging than ever before, so it’s mandatory to consolidate and leverage every possible IT resource – including your staff.
Best Practices: IT Management for Healthcare Services
The list of challenges faced by IT professionals in the healthcare sector continues to grow, from security and compliance regulations to cost-cutting initiatives. If you are looking for cost-effective ways to manage your infrastructure and protect access to key information, read on.
Desktop Transformation: Steps for Migration to Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
Virtualization has entered many enterprises at the data center level, targeting server workloads. The promise of higher workload densities per physical server, improved management, enhanced security, platform flexibility and lower operating costs has positioned virtualization as an essential data center tool. Many organizations who have completed their data center transformation are now eyeing their desktops for a similar transformation. Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) answers the call with its intrinsic ability to provision, protect and manage the desktop operating system (OS) independent of the underlying hardware.
Migrating to IPv6: Fundamentals of IPv6
IPv6 is needed to sustain the growth of the Internet. In theory, we could continue to use IPv4 and work around the address space and security limitations of that protocol, but eventually, the cost of staying with IPv4 will outweigh the benefits. IPv6 eliminates concerns about address exhaustion while improving security. The transition to IPv6 will require planning and likely some degree of support for both protocols during the transition period. As noted by those responsible for managing Internet addresses, it is only a matter of time before IPv4 is no longer viable. Early planning will help ensure the transition is no more difficult than it need be.
Migrating to IPv6: Strategies for Migrating to IPv6
Moving a network from IPv4 to IPv6 usually requires a transition from one standard to another. Trying to make a "big bang" adoption as is sometimes done with enterprise software is not recommended. Instead, running dual stacks to support both IPv4 and IPv6 can provide a fair degree of flexibility at the cost of additional device resources and some additional management overhead. Translating IPv6 to IPv4 protocols may be an option in some cases, such as when NAT is not used, and tunneling is another supported method. No one approach is best for every situation, and your requirements will dictate the appropriate solution for your environment. However, the dual-stack approach can provide a good balance of functionality versus management overhead in many cases.
Migrating to IPv6: Managing IPv6 Challenges and Solutions
The Internet is moving from IPv4 to IPv6. This is a collective decision driven in large part by the exhaustion of IPv4 addresses. To continue to function, grow, and adopt new services, businesses should plan to migrate to IPv6. Fortunately, there are ways to deploy both IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time. Maintaining two logical networks over the same infrastructure creates additional management overhead, but tools are available to address these needs.
WhatsUp Gold vs. Open Source Network Management
In the network management arena, open source software alternatives provide a compelling argument against big vendors that sell high cost, monolithic systems. However, the central theme to their argument relies on "cost" — open source is 'free' compared to the 'high cost' commercial software. But is it really? In this brief we address the main myths around open source network management, and present WhatsUp Gold's affordable and comprehensive network management capabilities as a strong alternative capable of delivering lower TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) and greater value across the board.

The Essentials Series - Part 2: The Shortcut Guide to Smart Network Management for the SMB
Small and midsize businesses (SMBs) are facing tough times in today's economy. Because of tighter budgets, many businesses must demand more from the investments they have made in Information Technology. Thus, there is an immediate need for networks to work smarter, not harder. This means that devices and systems on the network must maintain availability and continue performing efficiently at no additional cost to the business and the users. The challenge is daunting – from critical messaging systems to high-density virtual infrastructures, an administrator needs to discover, monitor, and track availability and performance across every device and system. The Shortcut Guide to Smart Network Management for the SMB provides an analysis of these challenges and a clear understanding of how smart network management can meet them.
