ICMP Path Echo
Overview
The ICMP Path Echo integration with Motadata AIOps offers comprehensive monitoring of network path performance using ICMP echo requests. This feature allows for detailed analysis of each hop in the network path, providing insights into latency at various stages and the overall round-trip time (RTT) for network packets. By monitoring these metrics, organizations can identify and troubleshoot network issues, optimize routing paths, and ensure efficient data flow.
Motadata AIOps delivers key metrics, including the average latency per path, the completion status of RTTs, and administrative details of the IPSLA operations. This information helps network administrators maintain optimal network performance and swiftly address any detected anomalies.
Prerequisites
- Ensure the device you are adding has the IP SLA capabilities.
- Ensure the Port 161 is enabled for the device you wish to monitor.
- Ensure you have the Write Community and Read Community string before creating a credential profile for WAN Link.
