Route Explorer


 
 
 Overview
Route Explorer
Network engineers need help to deliver a predictable
IP network service infrastructure to support
increasingly sensitive, converged services such as
VoIP, video and web-enabled applications.
The very distributed intelligence that makes IP networks resilient and cost-effective, makes them vulnerable to unexpected and intermittent degradations and disruptions. Yet, traditional SNMP management can't cope with the dynamic, network-layer problems that cause unpredictable and unexplained behavior in IP networks today.
   
     
   
The industry's first Route Analysis

The Route Explorer family is the industry's first Route Analysis solution. Route Explorer provides network-layer management by leveraging the intelligence of IP routing protocols to provide unprecedented visibility into the complex interactions in IP networks. A single Route Explorer appliance provides unified, network-wide Layer 3 monitoring, analysis and troubleshooting for Enterprise and Service Provider networks across a broad range of popular routing protocols. The Route Explorer solution simultaneously supports multiple Interior Gateway Protocols (IGPs) such as EIGRP, OSPF, and IS-IS, as well as BGP and RFC 2547bis MPLS VPNs, across multiple areas and Autonomous Systems (AS). Route Explorer provides network engineering departments a rapid return on investment (ROI) by decreasing unpredictable network behavior and downtime, and increasing user and engineering productivity

The Route Explorer family provides unified, network-wide Layer 3 analysis and troubleshooting for Enterprise and Service Provider networks across a broad range of popular routing protocols.

 

The Route Explorer solution simultaneously supports multiple Interior Gateway Protocols (IGPs) such as
EIGRP, OSPF, and IS-IS, as well as BGP and RFC 2547bis MPLS VPNs, across multiple areas and Autonomous Systems (AS).

  • Route Explorer for EIGRP: The industry's only Route Analytics solution for Cisco EIGRP networks. Includes automated detection of Stuck-In-Active errors.
  • Route Explorer for OSPF/IS-IS: Comprehensive Route Analytics for link-state routing protocols.
  • Route Explorer for BGP: Supports inter-AS
    monitoring and powerful diagnostics tools that are invaluable in sifting through hundreds of thousands of Internet routes to isolate problems. A sophisticated BGP Root Cause Analysis function automatically analyzes high volume BGP messages to reveal root cause events.
