TE Explorer

Dynamic TE Tunnel Monitoring

TE Explorer extends Packet Design’s real-time route analytics technology, which works by passively recording routing protocols, such as OSPF, IS-IS and BGP to compute, monitor and analyze network-wide routing behavior. TE Explorer integrates support for RSVP-TE traffic engineered tunnels into the routing map, delivering a dynamically updated view of network-wide routing and traffic engineering, including the ability to analyze traffic flow details.

Traffic engineering problems can severely impact critical services, making timely problem detection a must-have for network operators. TE Explorer monitors and alerts on TE tunnels that go down, are flapping, or are rerouted in real-time, and identifies root causes such as router or link failures, re-optimization or preemption. Engineers can quickly view tunnel status through comprehensive reports on tunnels, FRRs, headend and midpoint routers, and TE links. Graphical topology visualizations help engineers to easily understand the precise path of tunnels. In addition, the
History Navigator allows engineers to “rewind the network” and perform all analyses against the network state at the time problems were occurring, increasing the intuitiveness of troubleshooting and speeding root cause analysis.
