Ipsum Networks Raises $6 Million for IP Route Management

Ipsum Networks, a start-up based in Philadelphia, raised $6 million in Series B funding for its development of IP management solutions that assure application infrastructure availability. Ipsum's Route Dynamics solution monitors the network's routing protocols to provide a real-time, Layer 3 view of IP network operations. Route Dynamics said its solution delivers a picture of the logical health of a routed network, which can lead to improved service availability, operational efficiency, fault detection and prevention. The new funding was led by Rho Ventures of New York City, along with participation by Ipsum's original investor, Sevin Rosen Funds.
