Traffic Explorer
Peering and Transit Analysis
Optimizing transit and peering arrangements can significantly reduce service provider operating costs. Traffic Explorer arms them with the most complete set of capabilities including the ability to monitor peering or transit traffic to ensure it is within contracted ranges, as well as analyze, identify and justify new peering relationships. Whether moving traffic from paid transit to settlement-free peering, or balancing between multiple transit providers, Traffic Explorer provides the intelligence operators need to optimize their peering traffic and maximize their bottom line.
Engineers can view traffic by destination AS, neighbor AS, transit AS, Exit Router or Community
Traffic Explorer is unique in its ability to not only monitor and analyze peering and transit traffic, but also accurately plan the changes to the network that will optimize these interconnections. Traffic Explorer’s “what if” planning features let engineers understand the impact on peering or transit traffic before making any changes to the network. BGP configurations can be modified to move traffic between various existing and potential neighbor providers, showing how actual traffic loads will be affected. New peering relationships can be simulated, allowing operators to see the impact on traffic across their entire network. Since Traffic Explorer understands full end-to-end routing (both IGP and BGP), service providers can even see the impact on peering and transit traffic when making unrelated changes to the core of their network.
