WildPackets' OmniPeek Now Rated "Avaya Compliant"

OmniPeek Enterprise is compatible with key Avaya IP telephony solutions

WildPackets Inc., innovators in advanced network analysis, today announced that its OmniPeek Enterprise portable network analyzer is compliant with key Internet protocol (IP) telephony solutions from Avaya, a leading global provider of business communications applications, systems and services.

OmniPeek is the software console for the OmniAnalysis platform, a solution that helps businesses rapidly analyze and troubleshoot all enterprise networks centrally, regardless of topology. OmniPeek Enterprise v4 now is compliance-tested by Avaya for compatibility with Avaya Communication Manager 3.1.2, an industry-leading IP telephony application.

"Businesses are looking for a complete solution - state-of-the-art telephony with fully compliant troubleshooting and analysis tools," said Mahboud Zabetian, president and CEO of WildPackets. "We provide the troubleshooting and analysis, and Avaya provides the open, standards-based infrastructure business customers are looking for. Like Avaya, WildPackets believes a communications infrastructure is more than a collection of boxes, cables and software for communication. Instead it is a strategic business asset that should deliver benefits time and time again."

WildPackets is a member of the Avaya DeveloperConnection Program - an initiative to develop, market and sell innovative third-party products that interoperate with Avaya technology and extend the value of a company's investment in its network.

As a member of the program, WildPackets is eligible to submit products for compatibility testing by the Avaya Solution Interoperability and Test Lab in Lincroft, N.J. There a team of Avaya engineers develops a comprehensive test plan for each application to verify whether it is Avaya compliant. Doing so ensures businesses can confidently add best-in-class capabilities to their network without having to replace their existing infrastructure - speeding deployment of new applications and reducing both network complexity and implementation costs.

"By offering compliance testing to the many innovative companies like WildPackets who are members of our DeveloperConnection program, Avaya promotes fully interoperable solutions that help businesses unleash powerful new possibilities," said Eric Rossman, vice president, developer relations and technical alliances, Avaya. "They are able to use Intelligent Communications to connect employees and customers to information from wherever they are, over whatever device they have available - getting more out of their multivendor network and delivering new value to their bottom line" - Avaya.
