nPulse Networks extends PCAP Express Box product line





CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., Aug. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- nPulse Network Systems, LLC, a
leading developer of 10Gbps network sensors for monitoring, forensics and
security applications, has announced the "Wireshark Edition" of its popular
PCAP Express Box appliance.

Wireshark is the world's most widely-used network protocol analyzer and a
reference standard in companies and institutions worldwide. nPulse's Wireshark
Edition integrates the application into a high-performance PCAP server,
providing traffic record, retrieve and replay functions at up to 10Gbps.
Captured traffic is stored in standard PCAP file format for easy analysis by
Wireshark or similar applications.

John Bruno, Co-Founder and CEO of CACE Technologies (www.cacetech.com), the
lead sponsor of the Wireshark project, said, "nPulse is delivering on two
critical requirements for the success of open-source solutions in today's
marketplace. The first is in simplifying the application of popular tools like
Wireshark to very high-speed network traffic, in this case up to 10Gbps. The
second is in providing the commercial support, training and related services
which will ease the adoption of open-source products by corporate users."

"Our core customers are skilled network engineers who are comfortable working
at the Linux command line interface," said Peter Shaw, Vice-President at
nPulse Networks. "For enterprise and Government customers, who might have been
cautious about deploying open-source tools in the past, we now have a partner
network that provides the deployment, training and support services these
customers expect."

PCAP Express Box appliances for 10Gbps applications are already deployed by
the Federal Government, major contractors, a leading telecom manufacturer and
at large ISP's in both the US and Europe. The company says it also has active
projects in the financial and research communities.
