22 © 2014 Avaya Inc. Avaya – Confidential & Proprietary Do not duplicate, publish or distribute further without the express written permission of Avaya. #AvayaATF Obtain Network Topology The ultimate objective is to create a logical topology within SLA Mon that matches the physical network topology. This requires knowing the network topology and where the agents are located in that topology. 22

23 © 2014 Avaya Inc. Avaya – Confidential & Proprietary Do not duplicate, publish or distribute further without the express written permission of Avaya. #AvayaATF Discover the Agents 2. Add an IP address range to scan for agents. Add a zone designation (optional). 3. Select one or more ranges previously entered, and run discovery. 1. Populate location. SLA Mon polls all the IP addresses in the range to discover agents. This is surprisingly quick. 23

24 © 2014 Avaya Inc. Avaya – Confidential & Proprietary Do not duplicate, publish or distribute further without the express written permission of Avaya. #AvayaATF Discover the Agents (zoom in) Santa Clara’s IP address range is large enough that it requires 4 discovery entries. The other cities only require a single entry. Creating zones for the cities puts the individual IP subnets into a display grouping, explained in coming slides. Warning: Zone assignments made here overwrite the zone assignments on the Zone Management page. /21 is the smallest mask permitted. This particular entry scans 10.1.0.1 thru 10.1.7.255 to discover agents. This is nothing more than an IP address range. It implies nothing about how this range is subnetted in the network. The individual subnet information (subnet mask and default gateway) is received from the agents. 24

In Beta2 & GA loads: Blank means discovered; icon means manually disabled. All discovered agents are listed. In Beta2 & GA loads: Blank means discovered; icon means manually disabled. Note: In ADS 2.5 we will add a heartbeat mechanism and return the colored icons to indicate the health & reachability of the agents. 25

27 © 2014 Avaya Inc. Avaya – Confidential & Proprietary Do not duplicate, publish or distribute further without the express written permission of Avaya. #AvayaATF Set DSCP Values Check if enterprise uses video; uncheck otherwise. Set the values used in the enterprise. 27

28 © 2014 Avaya Inc. Avaya – Confidential & Proprietary Do not duplicate, publish or distribute further without the express written permission of Avaya. #AvayaATF Set Alarm Thresholds 180ms is the commonly accepted value for one-way delay. 4.0 - 4.5 is considered PSTN toll quality. Down to 3.6 is considered business quality. e-MOS is estimated mean opinion score, calculated using the ITU-T G.107 recommendation. These are commonly accepted values for jitter and loss, though perhaps a bit low in practicality. Set based on the enterprise’s tolerance levels. An alarm is triggered if the threshold is breached this many times in an hour span. 28

Maximize these unless you’re concerned about too much test traffic on the network. 1. Add new pattern name. Test runs for 1sec, data is compiled and sent to SLA Mon server (takes up to 2sec), and test runs again. This cycle may vary depending on how many total tests the SLA Mon server is managing. 2. Select test pattern for editing. 4. Select G.729 or G.711 (G.729 recommended for most cases). For each test pair, the G.729 pattern puts roughly one G.729 call’s worth of traffic (<30kbps) onto the network. Likewise the G.711 pattern puts <100kbps onto the network. 29

30 © 2014 Avaya Inc. Avaya – Confidential & Proprietary Do not duplicate, publish or distribute further without the express written permission of Avaya. #AvayaATF Add Tests Manually to the Pattern All 3 traffic types are added. Select subnet1 and subnet2 and add test pair. Repeat as necessary. Save pattern. 30

31 © 2014 Avaya Inc. Avaya – Confidential & Proprietary Do not duplicate, publish or distribute further without the express written permission of Avaya. #AvayaATF Add Tests Using Bulk Tool 1. Select the default pattern, which is a full-mesh pattern. 2. Export the full-mesh pattern to a spreadsheet. 3. Manually prune the spreadsheet. 2. Export the full-mesh pattern to a spreadsheet. 3. Manually prune the spreadsheet. 4. Import the pruned spreadsheet test pattern into a new pattern and save the pattern. The default test pattern is 1) all zones to all zones (full mesh of zones); 2) full mesh of subnets within a zone; 3) full mesh of subnets not assigned to a zone; 4) full mesh of unassigned subnets to zones (subnet to zone tests). 31

34 © 2014 Avaya Inc. Avaya – Confidential & Proprietary Do not duplicate, publish or distribute further without the express written permission of Avaya. #AvayaATF Summary Matrix for Multiple Test Pairs Rows and columns are numbered, but only the rows are labeled with the subnet or zone. Click on a cell to see the details of that test pair. Select traffic type and measured traffic parameter. Prune the matrix by selecting locations/zones to view. Color Code: Green: all tests in past hour were below threshold. Amber: at least one test in past hour exceeded threshold, but not the latest test executed. Red: latest test executed exceeded threshold. Grey: no test administered. Black: unable to execute administered test; agent or network down, or agent in distress. Blue: zone, click to see intra- zone test results. White: location to same location test not applicable. 34

35 © 2014 Avaya Inc. Avaya – Confidential & Proprietary Do not duplicate, publish or distribute further without the express written permission of Avaya. #AvayaATF Agent/Network Down vs. Agent in Distress Black means no agents on that subnet could be reached to execute the test – agent(s) or network down. Select the “Failed” traffic parameter. Red means the agent could be reached, but test execution failed – agent is malfunctioning or overloaded with tests. In this case SLA Mon will attempt to find another agent to execute the test. 35

61 © 2014 Avaya Inc. Avaya – Confidential & Proprietary Do not duplicate, publish or distribute further without the express written permission of Avaya. #AvayaATF Zone Management 1. Add new zone name. 3. Assign all IP subnets in the city of Sacramento to zone “Sacramento.” 5. The selected IP subnets will appear in the Sacramento zone and be grouped for display. 2. Select zone to add subnets to. 4. Or add individual IP subnets in the city of Sacramento to zone “Sacramento.” If agents were discovered on the Discovery tab w/o a zone designation, they can be assigned to a zone after discovery. Likewise, a zone assigned at discovery time can be changed after discovery. Warning: Any zone changes made here do not transfer to the Discovery tab. If agents are re-discovered on the Discovery tab using the previous discovery entries, they will overwrite the zone assignments on this page. Note: SLA Mon identifies IP subnets by the default gateway reported by the agent, instead of the familiar network/mask designation. This may change in the future, but for now this is how IP subnets are identified. 61

Avaya – Confidential & Proprietary Do not duplicate, publish or distribute further without the express written permission of Avaya. #AvayaATF Zones Explained  A zone is a way to group IP subnets for display purposes, to more easily see inter-zone test results and intra-zone test results.  We can create a zone of one city. The IP subnets in the Santa Clara office can be grouped into a zone called “SantaClara_Zone.”  We can also create a zone of multiple cities.  We can create a California zone and a Texas zone and put select cities into each zone.  Or we can create a USA zone and an Australia zone and put select cities into each zone.  We can create zones within the same city.  Within a college campus in one city, we can create an “Engineering” zone and a “Fine Arts” zone and a “Sociology” zone.  Within a corporate campus we can create a “Bldg A” zone and “Bldg B” zone.  Within a large building we can create a “Floor 1” zone and a “Floor 2” zone.  An administrator can create zones to suit the purposes of the enterprise, to make the network performance displays more manageable.  We want to see at a high level the tests between the zones.  We want to see separately the tests between subnets within a zone. To do that we drill down into that zone.  This grouping is only for display purposes. All tests are between IP subnets, not between zones. 62
