Abstract

In the application economy, application delivery performance issues come at a high cost due to increasing customer expectations. Learn how to identify the real problem when performance suffers so that issues are resolved quickly, with minimal false starts and finger-pointing across departments, using CA Network Flow Analysis and CA Application Delivery Analysis.

Application – Driven Network Performance Management


Visibility into System Performance through Probes, i.e. CDM, RSP, etc.

Application Performance through App driven Probes i.e. Exchange, Citrix, Lotus Notes, Databases, Java, etc.

Visibility into application response time to gauge how well the network delivers services to end users

Centralized view of infrastructure health and performance (UMP)

Visibility into Network Performance through SNMPCollector

Visibility into network traffic composition, behavior, utilization and the impact on application performance

Lab Exercise 1 – Network Traffic Analysis

In the following lab exercise, you will:

Install and configure NFA Inventory probe

View network traffic and device performance (SNMP) details for an interface

View Type of Service and CBQoS details (SNMP) for an intervace

Understand the value of traffic analysis and device performance data together in a single view


Lab Exercise 1 Summary

You should now be able to:

Install and configure NFA Inventory probe

View network traffic, Type of Service, and SNMP device performance data in context of an interface

Understand the value of traffic analysis and SNMP device performance data together in a single view

Lab Exercise 2 – Quantify Application Delivery Performance

In the following lab exercise, you will:

Install and configure ADA Inventory probe

Execute operational workflow using application delivery data (CA ADA) within USM

Understand each of the charts in the Advanced tab and its role in quantifying application delivery issues within the network infrastructure


Lab Exercise 2 Summary

You should now be able to:

Install and configure the ADA_Inventory probe

Execute USM workflow using CA ADA metric data

Understand each of the CA ADA charts in the Advanced tab and articulate its value when quantifying application delivery issues in the network infrastructure
