Using QoS and LiveAction to solve application performance pr

Download the LiveAction 14-Day Trial from http://liveaction.com/download-qos/ Applications running on today’s networks are mission critical or latency sensitive. So enterprises need to adopt QoS or Quality of Service that control how traffic is prioritized and handled during congestion. Take a look at this presentation to understand why LiveAction's QoS solution is easy to deploy, and how it provides powerful monitoring and analytics tools plus quick diagnosis of application performance issues through visual displays.

  2. Using QoS to Solve Application Performance Problems Across the WAN Today’s IT Challenges Available Solutions Key Considerations © 2014 ActionPacked Networks, Inc. dba LiveAction, All Rights Reserved.

  3. Today’s IT Challenges Quality of Service (QoS) Total Cost to Ownership (TCO) Thousands of Apps Troubleshooting Cisco Solutions Network Outages • Poor voice and video over IP • Poor application performance • Underperforming mission-critical apps (ERP) • Challenges of multi-site enterprises using constrained WAN links • 90% of trouble-shooting time is spent identifying (not fixing) the problem • QoS is built into Cisco routers and switches • Difficult to learn and deploy • Time consuming and error-prone CLI • Business-critical apps • Latency-sensitive apps like voice • Bandwidth-hungry recreational apps • Apps that IT didn’t authorize • Reduce/eliminate service interruptions • Human configuration errors cause 50%-80% of all network outages • How do all of these challenges impact TCO? © 2014 ActionPacked Networks, Inc. dba LiveAction, All Rights Reserved.

  4. Drilling Down on QoS Queue Setting Mark Shape Police WRED Priority Queue Most common QoS tools Class Based Queue Packets Classify Packets LFI Class Based Queue Class Based Queue Default QoS management is the collection of mechanisms that control how traffic is prioritized and handled during congestion All these QoS tools rely on traffic classification: the better the classification, the better the QoS © 2014 ActionPacked Networks, Inc. dba LiveAction, All Rights Reserved.

  5. Drilling Down on QoS With QoS Without QoS • Visibility and analysis • Protection of real-time and high priority data applications • Free for all • No protection of critical data, voice or video To make the process as manageable as possible, QoS deployments need to take into account: • QoS needs of the organization • Current network architecture • Applications used by the staff • Traffic running over the network • QoS capabilities available in the network devices © 2014 ActionPacked Networks, Inc. dba LiveAction, All Rights Reserved.

  6. Key Considerations Ease of use • Look for these capabilities: • Visual Visio-like diagrams but with real-time and historical flows for quick diagnosis of performance issues • Full visibility into devices and policies © 2014 ActionPacked Networks, Inc. dba LiveAction, All Rights Reserved.

  7. Key Considerations Flexibility Look for these capabilities: Copy and deploy an existing policy to multiple network devices Deploy cloud-based and on-premisebusiness applications Work in MPLS, DMVPN, Performance Routing (PfR) and Intelligent WAN environments Accommodate on-the-fly QoS policy adjustments © 2014 ActionPacked Networks, Inc. dba LiveAction, All Rights Reserved.

  8. Key Considerations Power of solution Look for these capabilities: Powerful Monitoring Effective Management Scalability • Deep application awareness • Comprehensive monitoring and analysis • Robust troubleshooting real-time and historical capabilities • System intelligence to facilitate creation and execution of effective QoS policies • Instant validation of QoS policy changes • Fast resolution of application performance issues • Synthetic traffic generation and analysis for measuring the impact of QoS policies in a controlled manner • Thousands of network devices and millions of flows per second • Works with Cisco advanced technologies © 2014 ActionPacked Networks, Inc. dba LiveAction, All Rights Reserved.

  9. Finding the Best Solution What to look for to find the best, most cost-effective solution Easy to deploy, configure, monitor and analyze - with Cisco advanced technologies such as QoS, Medianet, PfR, AVC, AX, NetFlow and FnF End-to-end flow visualization for a holistic view of the network Quick diagnosis of application performance issues through visual displays QoS graphical control to troubleshoot and fix issues Instant validation of QoS policy changes © 2014 ActionPacked Networks, Inc. dbaLiveAction, All Rights Reserved.
