Network Troubleshooting with NetFlow and IP SLA
Summary of information on this page:
Reducing Mean Time to Restore
The NetScout Solution is an essential tool for helping enterprises troubleshoot network performance issues. It provides the flexibility to:
- Use conversation data to investigate application problems reported by end-users
- Reduce the mean time to restore (MTTR) for reported situations with visibility into application-level details lacking in MIB-II only network management tools.
- Launch NetFlow datagram decodes to isolate the most subtle problems
Streamlining the Troubleshooting Workflow
The already time-consuming and frustrating task of accurately identifying and diagnosing network and application performance issues will only continue to intensify as the application fabric infrastructure becomes increasingly more complex and interdependent. Without highly-granular, application-aware, real-time information, application and network troubleshooting can be a discouraging and time-consuming task.
Troubleshooting with nGenius Performance Manager for NetFlow
The nGenius Performance Manager for NetFlow provides the most advanced troubleshooting capabilities based on NetFlow and IP SLA data. Additionally, it streamlines the troubleshooting workflow by contextually guiding the process from beginning to end – early problem identification to diagnosis to detailed packet forensics:
- View all applications side-by-side within the context of their environment to quickly troubleshoot problems that involve interaction of multiple applications.
- Drill down from worst performing servers, applications and locations to isolate and resolve problems
- Apply nGenius Analytics for Flows to NetFlow data for early warning and diagnosis of performance issues
- Launch packet captures from user desktop to decode and analyze NetFlow datagram's or traffic per router interface
- Set rising and falling threshold parameters to alarm on router interfaces, QoS classes and sites
- Monitor MOS, jitter, latency and packet loss for easy troubleshooting of VoIP applications
