01

Start with the organization

Use facility maps and network diagrams to understand the deployment before opening the details of an investigation.

02

Go deeper into the evidence

Explore traffic reports, QoX, alarms and synthetic results produced from your NetCollab deployment.

03

Choose your data environment

Use Central Cloud or discuss a local hardware deployment for managing the platform and reporting data on your own network.

From place to network

Give every investigation a location.

Move from an organization’s facilities to the network diagram of the site you need to investigate. Keep the deployment context close to the technical detail.

  • Find a facility in the organization’s map.
  • Use its network diagram to understand the components involved.
  • Connect the site context to its reports and diagnostics.

Reports that answer the next question

Go from traffic to understanding.

Explore DPI and traffic reporting, dynamic reports and synthetic test results. Central is where the statistics collected by your monitoring nodes become reports your team can use.

  • DPI / traffic reports: explore the traffic classifications and measurements available.
  • Dynamic reports: select a node, schedule collection and filter by protocol, category, IP or MAC—from aggregate DPI trends to detailed five-tuple connections.
  • Synthetic results: add active path measurements to the picture.

Put a complaint in context

Bring alarms and experience into the same investigation.

Use the Diagnose pages to explore alarms and Quality of Experience (QoX) alongside network evidence. Build a clearer picture of what happened before deciding where to investigate next.

  • Review the alarms relevant to the investigation.
  • Read QoX in the context of other available measurements.
  • Use the evidence to guide the next troubleshooting step.
