Network Routing Audit

Real time and mission critical applications are being deployed on IP networks today. These technologies are driving the need to understand the characteristics and the performance of your network infrastructure. VoIP is a real-time application, requiring a robust network to ensure calls are completed and maintain a certain level of voice quality. In addition, financial services are moving to the Internet, requiring a high level of network reliability to ensure no critical transactions are lost or delayed. An important aspect of a robust reliable network is the routing protocol performance from the network routing devices. Incorrect route provisioning, routing storms, and route flapping are some of the many problems a network may be experiencing; causing delays and interruptions in network service.

Solana Networks is now offering network routing audit services for enterprise and government IT networks. The steps to the audit are:

Solana Networks network device is securely connected to the customers network
Solana Networks network devices non-intrusively monitors customer network for several hours (2-6 hours) for routing protocol traffic.
Experienced Solana Networks Personnel will analyze on-site the real time information provided by the Solana network device.
Report and recommendations will be provided post audit to improve robustness of the customer network.

The Routing Audit services entails:

Visualization of current layer 3 topology of the network with clear indication of multiple areas and various router types (e.g., ABR, ASBR)
Obtain a detail report of the network attributes i.e., link and node attributes
Obtain external routes and analysis
Obtain route or interface flapping during the audit
Obtain path analysis for mission critical traffic; for example routes to critical servers.
Comparative analysis of route prefixes and fault identification
Recommendations for improved routed network
