Tech Notes
 
"Dial-tone" Reliability for Cisco IP Phones
The Infoblox DNSone™ package has been certified to run with Cisco 7900 Series Unified IP Phones, Cisco CallManager 4.1(x), and Cisco CallManager 4.0(x). The products have undergone interoperability testing in a third-party lab. Cisco 7900 Series Unified IP Phones require IP addresses delivered via DHCP, firmware updates through TFTP, and time stamp from NTP. Infoblox provides these services in a single, purpose-built appliance that is highly reliable, secure, scalable, centrally managed, and easy to deploy.

Infoblox Core Network Services + Riverbed RSP
Infoblox Virtual Appliance software running on Riverbed platforms can be combined with Infoblox hardware appliances into Infoblox grids. The patent-pending Infoblox grid technology links distributed appliances into a unified, centrally managed system that shares a common, real-time distributed database. The Infoblox grid uses secure communication among appliances using SSL and also uses sophisticated transaction management technology to maintain data integrity. This ensures that all appliances in the grid have the right data and that the grid continues to deliver services—without data loss or corruption—in the face of device or WAN failures. Infoblox grid technology also supports intelligent data replication to minimize the use of bandwidth in the grid and to enable “right-sized” appliances to be deployed at each location.

Operational Reporting for Core Network Services
It is important that companies monitor and manage their core network services (CNS) infrastructure because CNS protocols like DNS and DHCP are invaluable when performing capacity planning or troubleshooting tasks. A critical component of this operational monitoring is the ability to report on performance statistics for DNS and DHCP servers across the enterprise, and also to report on protocol usage.
