Network Monitoring Application
Overview Tab
The overview tab is the dashboard for a quick overview of the network performance status and history. It provides charts over a time span (last 24 hours, last 7 days, last 30 days) selectable via the Global Time selector. The dashboard provides two views, which can be selected at the top right corner:
• Network: Overview of the current and historical state of the network
• Health Monitors: Performance state and statistical data per health monitor (i.e. per metric type)
Network Dashboard
On the top of the network dashboard, a set of donut charts reflects the current network state:
• Metrics Performance State: Current performance state distribution of all collected metrics
(Note: The link at the top right corner opens the detailed list of exceeded metrics).
(Note: The link at the top right corner opens the detailed list of exceeded metrics).
• NE Performance State: Current performance state distribution of all NEs.
• Section Performance State: Current performance state distribution of all sections.
• Health Monitors Performance State: Current performance state distribution of all health monitors.
• Metrics Validity: Current validity distribution of all metrics.
• NE Monitoring Status: Current monitoring status distribution of all NEs (Not Started, Running, Stopped, etc.).
Below the donut charts, two bar charts reflect the historical network state:
• Metrics Performance State History: Worst metric performance state distribution over last 24h / 7d / 30d.
• NE Performance State History: Worst NE performance state distribution over last 24h / 7d / 30d.
And finally, at the bottom right, there is a horizontal bar chart indicating the
• Current Worst Performing NE: Worst performing NEs with number and state of exceeded metrics.
Health Monitors Dashboard
The network monitors dashboard provides two views, which can be selected by tabs on the title bar:
• Performance State: Current and historical performance state per health monitor
This view breaks down the current metrics distribution and worst historical performance state to the individual health monitors (i.e., metric types). Time intervals are selectable: 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days.
• Values: Statistical key figures per health monitor over time
Statistical key figures for metrics of the same type are calculated and displayed over time to provide statistical insights in the form of line charts. The line charts contain the trends for minimum value, maximum value, average and 20th/80th percentiles. Time intervals are selectable: 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days.
