Network management provides visibility into:

  • Extent and intensity of network activity
  • Traffic, load, and throughput potential
  • Any significant degradation of service

Network management enables dynamic rerouting of service based on:

  • Priority
  • System status
  • Capacity

Network management minimizes the effects of disruption through timely:

  • Detection of intrusions
  • Detection of service degradation
  • Allocation of traffic to unaffected, available network paths
  • Use of protective software and devices
  • Implementation of information protection and restoration procedures
Active network management provides the capability to identify, isolate, manage traffic, and respond to incidents to ensure maximum reliability of the GIG and its information.

Network management also allows rapid reconfiguration of networks in order to isolate an incident to a specific location.
