Map App

• Troubleshoot with automation

Instantly create a dynamic network map to
identify the segment of the network responsible
for forwarding the application traffic. Then
drill down with apps for further diagnosis.
Network Performance
Routing Changes
Configuration Discrepancies
3
Build a Map

• Visualize the application flow across the network

with a targeted map created from a pair of
source and destination addresses of the
application
4
Asymmetric Routing

• Map reverse flow path

to see how traffic flows from B to A.
5
Run Apps

• Analyze application performance design
  dependencies

by collecting performance and configuration data
with an app.

• Recommended App Layer-4 Port-Level Analysis
• Specify layer-4 protocol and port number to
  identify traffic forwarding rules and
  restrictions specific to defined port.

6
Run Apps

• Discover changes in traffic flow

with an app to identify changes in topology by
mapping the flow as it looked previously.
7
Run Apps

• Monitor network health

by letting the app perform a continuous scan of
the relevant network to determine device
availability, device health, and link performance.
8
Run Apps

• The app will also generate alarms when threshold
  is exceeded.

9
Run Apps

• Leverage the Netflow app

to analyze bandwidth bottlenecks and drill down
into interfaces bandwidth utilization data to
see relevant Netflow data.
10
Write Your Own Apps

• To automate any troubleshooting diagnosis

Create an app rather than issuing show commands
one-by-one across devices.
11
Write Your Own Apps

• Define variables of interest

One example is to use show interface IOS
command to extract speed and duplex from each
interface.
12
Write Your Own Apps

• Define data positions on the map

Use the map to display the desired device and
interface data.
13
Write Your Own Apps

• Define alarm thresholds

Indicate a threshold condition and associated
warning message when threshold is exceeded.
