Statscout Connects with OPNET

Statscout’s network performance data incorporated into OPNET’s VNE Server

Bethesda, MD and Brisbane, Australia - February 9, 2004 --OPNET Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: OPNT), a leader in management software for networks and applications, and Statscout, an Australian provider of network monitoring solutions, today announced the addition of Statscout to the growing list of products supported by OPNET’s VNE Server.

OPNET’s VNE Server provides an on-line, continuously valid, integrated view of your network. VNE Server collects network data from disparate sources—and intelligently merges this information in the Virtual Network Environment—creating a unified network representation that can be used for network planning, engineering, and operations. VNE Server provides a complete, architected approach for managing network topology, configuration, and performance information.

Statscout is a truly out-of-the-box, web based, network performance monitor. Statscout collects SNMP statistics from all network devices, providing end-to-end performance visibility of the entire network and produces easy-to-read real-time and historical reports.

Stewart Reed, Statscout’s Global Manager, Sales and Marketing, lauded the development saying, "We feel very proud that OPNET has developed an interface between Statscout’s network monitoring and OPNET’s VNE Server. OPNET is extremely well respected in the modeling arena. Together, Statscout’s Blanket Monitoring and OPNET’s robust VNE Server, provide a tightly-coupled solution that accounts for production measurements when modeling network performance.”

“We’re pleased with the addition of Statscout to the list of supported data feeds for VNE Server,” commented Todd Kaloudis, Vice President at OPNET. “Statscout offers our customers an ability to gather valuable network performance data for building accurate models of production infrastructure.”
