What is the difference between packet sniffers (Wireshark/T-Shark) and AGILITY?
Other packet capture analysis tools on the market sniff out packets flowing through a network. They capture packets of data messages flowing through a network so that network activity can be analyzed in real-time or retrospectively. AGILITY expedites packet capture analysis and troubleshooting by pinpointing remediation paths through automatic network detection, protocol level analysis, and issue correlation that highlight the specific source(s) of problems on the network.
Imagine packet sniffers as the first step in solving an issue - they show us what messages are in the PCAP files. AGILITY takes it a step further by not only capturing messages but also quickly figuring out what's wrong and suggesting ways to solve the problem. In simpler terms, while packet sniffers are like detectives collecting evidence, AGILITY is like a super-smart detective that not only collects evidence but also quickly solves the case by providing analysis and remediation.
