LiveWire appliances and virtual software support monitoring and troubleshooting at remote sites, branches, WAN links, and data centers. A USB-connected Omnipeek WiFi adapter enables wireless packet capture across multiple channels at once. The datasheet also lists Snort and Suricata event imports, LiveCapture connections, third-party authentication, and support for ISO8583 and additional VoIP protocols.
