142 COMMANDCENTER NOC ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE
In addition to polling overhead, our services scan will run less than once a day and generate traffic
roughly equivalent to a single polling interval. If vulnerability scanning is enabled, the CC-NOC
will also generate the traffic associated with completing those tests. Benchmarks as to those tests
are not currently available.
In summary, the overhead introduced by any network management tool is not necessarily trivial,
given some network types. However, as "speeds and feeds" increase dramatically, corresponding
costs drop, and better-engineered network management platform, for example, Raritan’s CC-
NOC, emerge, this overhead will become increasingly nominal.
Additional Notes
The design team at Raritan has gone to great lengths to minimize impacts on networks we are
managing. We believe that the numbers called out in this report reflect that conscious attempt at
traffic minimalization, and we believe if compared to other systems on the market today, these
numbers would prove to be not only competitive, but industry-leading. However, if you decrease
the polling interval, you will see a larger impact to the environment. Take this into consideration
before performing any significant changes to the polling engine.
The numbers in this document reflect a given point-in-time test in a controlled environment. The
test was conducted with a production CC-NOC in a stock configuration.
