of all packets, regardless of higher priority filters.
Filter mod (modify) command
Change filter parameters quickly without the need to delete and re-enter the filter.

NTP clock synchronization
Network Time Protocol (NTP) synchronizes your clock automatically over packet-switched,
variable-latency data networks for instant accuracy to within 10 milliseconds (NTOPv4),
and includes support for Daylight Saving Time and leap seconds.
|
|
Peak utilization RMON statistic
This statistic lets you know the peak utilization on every port and the time when it occurred, giving you more insight into network performance.
|
|
Show CPU and memory utilization
Track CPU utilization and memory usage for improved insight into how much Director system resources are being used, isolating potential problems and supporting availability.
|
|
Auditing and event logging
Establish accountability, reconstruct events and activities, and carry out intrusion detection, and problem analysis more effectively.
|
|
Complete configuration files
Gain an up-to-date archive that records and stores changes made to the Director setup to ease future configurations and network tasks.

|
DHCP address assignment
For enterprise integration, the Director management IP address can be obtained automatically from your Dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server without the need for administrator intervention.
|
|
Port utilization threshold alarms
Support network availability with information about the traffic load and bandwidth utilization on each port. Alarms trigger when the RMON utilization statistic exceeds the threshold you configure for each port.
|
|
Prompt string length increased to 40 characters
Create longer, more meaningful CLI prompt strings to facilitate identification of systems in multiple console windows.
|
|
Set the system host name, description, location, and contact
To enhance integration with your SNMP management system, the system set command can set four standard information fields, while quoted strings can also include embedded spaces and special characters for greater security.
Added SNMP sysobjectid=23022
With sysobjectid set in the snmpd.com file, your SNMP management system will identify the device as “Director” instead of “net-SNMP-Linux”.
Second SNMP trap server
