IMC 7.0 allows users to create semi-custom visualizations.
Custom visulizations are supported for the followin:
List objects: device view, port group, operation log
Chart types: Count Statistics Bar Chart and Count Statistics Pie Chart
IMC 7.0 has introduced HTML5 based topologies. Topologies accessed through the native IMC browser window will show as HTML topologies when using a modern HTML5 capable browser.
Legacy browsers may continue to use java to access the topology functions.
IMC 7.0 now allows users to add in notes which can be displayed in a room in the Data Center Topology function.
Note: The Data Center topology is only available in the Java Applet based topos.
The Data Center topology is NOT available in the HTML5 topos.
IMC 7 now allows users to choose to display the interface description of a specific link on the topology map.
This function is only available in the Java Applet topos.
This function is NOT available in the HTML5 topos.
IMC 7.0 now links the color of the cloud to the highest level of alarm in the linked view.

Let me give you an example…of what this looks like…
As you can see - two lines end up crossing each other and not aligning…which is ultimately the problem
When you deploy a real application across the network …what happens to the network…you either get a network that sits around and not being used effectively…
Or you get a network that has heavy demand depending on when an application is being used
This will do one of two things…either cause your capital to be stranded because you spend a lot of money to get your network over provisioned or you will have a network that can’t hit peak demands required of it, therefore the network is under provisioned and will have a bad user experience as a result
Original notes:
The network needs to be dynamic…adaptable to react to user demand and the network – over provisioning – is lost of money/stranded capital and under provisioning – unable to provide what the user needs to run applications or services…
Set and forget the network – is no longer going to fly in today’s environment to support mega trends such as cloud, big data, mobility and security…

Let’s take a look at what it looks like…
You can see the network bandwidth availability maps to the user demand
As a result, the network is aligned
So the application gets as much of the network it requires based on its need…at the right time dynamically

We’ve been working hard to deliver on our SDN strategy – to power your network of today and tomorrow
Today we offer 30 million+ OpenFlow-enabled ports (switches, along with 10 routers) that you can deploy today
We also offer VXLAN & will offer NVGRE
We’ve developed an SDN Controller - which has been downloaded more than 10,000 times in less than 6 months – an accomplishment that took one of our competing controller vendor more than 2-years to accomplish
It is an enterprise class high availability controller that you can now use in your network to deploy applications
We are also delivering our SDN Developer Kit and the HP SDN App Store - creating an open ecosystem with more than 30 HP partners
We are working with our partners to create applications as well, along with support services, design implementation and certification – today we have 6 HP and 7 partner apps
Lots of great capabilities within the SDN portfolio
We believe our portfolio is the most comprehensive in the industry today…
Additional notes vs. competition
HP has created the most open, integrated and software-defined networking (SDN) portfolio and ecosystem of its kind – driving simplification with networks that understand, adapt to your business applications in real-time.
UNLIKE Cisco, whose complex, proprietary and margin-centered approach to networking is not open, not ecosystem based, and only reluctantly software-driven (and who regularly throttles innovation in order to maximize revenue), …
Only HP extends the momentum of software-defined networking everywhere – from the mobile edge to the heart of data centers – providing a future-ready fabric that gives you the power to drive the outcomes your organization demands, today and tomorrow.

Together the HP SDN Developer Kit and the HP SDN App Store form a foundation that creates an open ecosystem—an open ecosystem with more than 20 HP partners who believe in the same vision we believe in.
They see the opportunity that IDC has articulated which is we will approach $3.7 billion by 2016 and the opportunity to seize and capture $670 million of SDN apps. Similarly, they believe the only way to achieve this opportunity is through an open ecosystem.
Together we stand to declare the importance of it and declare that we are creating it.

Finally, we have our Sentinel Security Application that we announced late last year. This application has already been deployed by several customers including HBO that we shared several months ago. Today, we have Greg Bell from Ballarat Grammar school in Australia with us to talk about their deployment of Sentinel.
Before we bring Greg on stage, I wanted to give you a quick refresher of this exciting SDN application.
The Sentinel Security application works by instructing the HP Virtual Application Networks SDN controller to program the access layer switches using OpenFlow to intercept malicious traffic by working with HP TippingPoint RepDV Reputation Database. The RepDV database contains information of over 1 Million botnet, malware and spyware sites.
As you can imagine in a BYOD world, the risk of botnet threats and malware exploits are greater than ever. As they connect to the enterprise network, you want to be able to immediately detect this kind of network activity and throttle that behavior before infection spreads.
HP Reputation Digital Vaccine provides security intelligence feeds from a global reputation database so you can actively enforce and manage reputation based security policies. It will have a data base on malware sites.. Phishing sites.. Compromised hosts.. Botnet and spammers information.
When there is a match found in the RepDV, meaning that it is a site known to host malware, Sentinel generates a custom DNS response. Sentinel can reply with two different types of DNS responses.
The first type is a “host not found” response. In this case the client stops trying to resolve the hostname and fails quickly without a timeout. This leads to a better user experience than a timeout.
The second type is a redirection. Sentinel can create a DNS reply that points to an internal server. If the original DNS request was due to a browser request, then the user could be redirected to a page that could provide feedback, such as a note that this page has been blocked due to company security policy.
Quarantine thresholds can be configured on per client DNS requests per second or on total number of unique
malicious connections per client, resulting in IP redirection or dropping of all client traffic Malicious identity
displays the IP address associated with quarantined or blocked clients or reveals user-id when
integrated with IMC
Malicious identity
displays the IP address associated with quarantined or blocked clients or reveals user-id when
integrated with IMC
Custom blacklist
allows the administrator to block configured domains during specified periods of time
Inspection throttling
ensures that network performance is not impacted by bursts of heavy traffic
Group policy
supports individual reputation level for blocking or quarantining members of the group
Email alerts-Notifies the administrator of quarantined clients or malicious connection attempts
HP ArcSight integration
allows logging of malicious activity in CEF syslog format (optional capability)
