NetRoute Monitoring

Overview

NetRoute within Motadata AIOps delivers comprehensive network visibility by presenting a topological view of end-to-end network paths. This feature enables users to gain a clear understanding of traffic flow and routing across their infrastructure.

Real-time monitoring capabilities allow for the detection of route changes and the analysis of multi-path traffic, while hop-by-hop performance metrics highlight active paths and identify critical issues such as packet loss and slowdowns.

By providing historical path analysis, NetRoute facilitates in-depth insights into network availability, latency, and bandwidth utilization over time. This historical perspective is crucial for understanding network behavior and identifying recurring issues.
