Parameters
•
Alarm TopN: Helps you view the VPNs, PEs, and CEs' fault information ranking TopN.
•
N must be one of 5, 10, 15, 20 in the TopN. The records in VPN, PE, CE list are no
more than N respectively.
Performance management
Performance management allows you to collect and query VPN performance data, thus helping
you monitor the running status of a VPN network. Performance data collection and analysis provide
an overview of the operation and performance of the VPN, thus helping you identify bottlenecks
affecting network performance. Therefore you can plan and adjust the VPN network based on the
analysis.
Performance management enables you to set traffic monitor parameters and alarm thresholds for
VPN or SA, providing traffic reports based on various types of data.
Set default threshold
This function allows you to set default threshold for performance management. If the performance
level exceeds the threshold, the system generates corresponding alarms.
Operation procedure
1. Click the Service tab, click MPLS VPN Manager, and then click Traffic Monitor > Threshold
Setting in the navigation tree to enter the Set Default Threshold page.
2. Click the Modify icon to enter the page for setting thresholds.
3. Set the threshold and click OK.
Parameters
•
SA incoming traffic: Traffic (bytes/s) received on the PE interface corresponding to the SA.
•
SA outgoing traffic: Traffic (bytes/s) sent on the PE interface corresponding to the SA.
•
A incoming bandwidth utilization: Percentage of the bandwidth of the incoming PE interface
in the total bandwidth of the PE interface.
•
SA outgoing bandwidth utilization: Percentage of the bandwidth of the outgoing PE interface
in the total bandwidth of the PE interface.
•
Level-1 and level-2 thresholds: You can set level 2 threshold only when level 1 threshold is
valid. If the performance level exceeds the threshold, the system generates alarms. The alarm
severity of level 2 threshold is higher that of level 1 threshold. When the alarm severity of a
performance data goes down from level 2 to level 1, the system generates alarm restore
information.
Traffic monitor setting
MVM allows setting of traffic monitor parameters for VPN and SA respectively. You can set monitor
parameters as needed, thus ensuring that the system can collect data and generate traffic report
accordingly.
VPN traffic monitor setting
All the VPNs that can be monitored in the system are listed on the VPN Traffic Monitor Setting
page, and VPN type and monitor status are also displayed. You can monitor, remove monitor, or
modify monitor parameters of a VPN.
