Efficient Network Monitoring

I’d like to see what’s going on in my network and monitor the status of my network health!

The challenge

Today, it is often quite difficult to keep track of the status of your global Virtual Private Network (VPN) and to oversee what is going on in your company’s network. Monitoring your network health status is either not possible or can only be done by adding costly, additional hardware to your network operation center. But monitoring your network health status is essential if you are to avoid or mitigate operational disruptions and downtimes. In addition, you want to better understand which applications are driving your enterprise’s bandwidth demands, and where potential bottlenecks lead to poor performance and lower user satisfaction.

The solution

ngena’s SD-WAN service comes with sophisticated, built-in monitoring capabilities and dashboards that show you the health status of your global network in real-time. By using the Cisco/Viptela leading-edge monitoring technology, your network services can be monitored and supervised in real-time. In addition, you can check whether all technical key performance indicators are within or outside the target values. Performance graphs show you the different health statuses over time, and help you identify potential bottlenecks or weaknesses. Should any incidents or major irregularities occur, an alarm will be triggered, and you will be notified immediately. Moreover, being able to see what is going on in every part of your global network will also allow you to improve the stability and reliability of your network and improve user satisfaction.
