Service overview

Juniper Routing Active Testing Network Performance Audit Service quickly identifies problematic nodes and reports actual network performance in a fixed environment or in mobile backhaul. The service helps proactively resolve issues before they impact end users.

The Juniper Global Services team can configure a single strategically located test agent to audit thousands of endpoints through data collection. The collected data is used to monitor and evaluate network performance, providing deeper insights into service performance and trends. This service delivers a real-time view of network performance through a comprehensive audit performed by Juniper experts.

 

Service description

As networks grow more complex, it becomes increasingly difficult to gain visibility into network performance, understand how services are delivered, and track how performance affects user experience. Juniper® Routing Active Testing Network Performance Audit Service (formerly Paragon Active Assurance Network Performance Audit Service), offered by Juniper Global Services, provides deep visibility into the network and how it is performing. This service gives you a comprehensive audit that reports detailed findings gathered from network quality metrics, helping identify regions or sites with the lowest performance.

To get the most from your Routing Active Testing Network Performance Audit Service investment, a single low-footprint, software-based test agent is deployed at the edge of the core network and synthetic data is sent to multiple recipients equipped with reflector functionality. The traffic is then bounced back by network equipment, continuously monitoring thousands of endpoints simultaneously.

The Routing Active Testing Network Performance Audit Service extends basic network quality metrics to dozens of KPIs. The data gathered is further analyzed, providing deeper insight into service performance and trends, with findings presented in the audit report.

The audit service:

  • Provides visibility into the perceived quality of your network performance
  • Pinpoints issues and assess their severity
  • Prioritizes the most important issues
  • Identifies regions and sites with the most problems
  • Determines the types of faults (such as QoS misconfigurations) detected and the direction in which they are occurring

 

Methodology

The Routing Active Testing Network Performance Audit Service execution methodology includes the following:

  • Audit method description workshop: Provides a summary of the audit specifications, aligns expectations, and assesses the current state of the network
  • Configuration of test agent and Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol (TWAMP) monitoring: Includes suggestions for the optimal configuration of the test agent in the Network Functions Virtualization Infrastructure (NFVI) environment
  • Audit findings summary presentation: Reported metrics and insights gathered from analyzing the collected data are delivered by the Juniper Services team to your cross-functional teams
