timeout. Default is 0, indicating that the session does not time out
because of inactivity. Range: 0 to 480 minutes |
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name* | Enter the name of the server or application to which notifications for subscribed events are to be sent. |
| URL* |
Enter the URL of the server or application where the notifications in the form of HTTP POST requests are to be sent when a subscribed event occurs. You must configure webhooks to enable Routing Director to send notifications to third-party applications, such as Slack, when events you have subscribed to are triggered on the managed devices. To receive webhook notifications in a format that is compatible with Slack, you need to configure an intermediary that can interact with the sending and receiving applications, in this case, Routing Director and Slack. The recommended intermediary platform is Make. For more information, see Configure Webhooks to Receive Event Notifications. |
| Secret | Enter the secret to validate that the notifications received are from valid hosts. |

| Streaming API | |
| Alerts | Click to enable or disable (default) receiving notifications when subscribed alerts are generated on the managed devices. |
| Audits | Click to enable or disable (default) receiving notifications when an organization is accessed or any setting in the organization is changed. |
| Device Status | Click to enable or disable (default) receiving notifications when the device status changes due to events such as a link going up or down, or the device getting disconnected from Routing Director, and so on. |
| Device Alarms |
Click to enable or disable (default) receiving notifications when subscribed alarms are generated on the managed devices. |
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
|
ECMP Placement Method* |
Select a placement method for equal-cost multipath (ECMP) routing.
Based on the placement method you opt, Routing Director evaluates link metrics, distributes traffic, and improves bandwidth utilization on multiple links to the same destination. |
|
Path Optimization Interval* |
Specify the interval after which Routing Director must automatically trigger path optimization. To disable automatic path optimization, enter 0 second. Range: 0 through 9 minutes (m), hours (h) or days (d). |
|
Link Utilization Threshold* |
Specify the threshold value (in percentage) for link utilization. When traffic on a link exceeds this value, Routing Director reroutes label-switched path (LSPs). If you do not specify a threshold, the LSP is not rerouted. If you specify 0, the links are blocked. Range: 0 through 100 percentage. |
|
Threshold Rerouting Interval |
Specify the minimum interval (in minutes) after which Routing Director reacts to any traffic or delay violations. If you don’t specify an interval, the label-switched path (LSP) is not rerouted in case of a violation. Range: 1 through 300 minutes |
|
Link Utilization Violation Count |
Count refers to the number of times that a violation must occur for a rerouting event to take place. Specify the count for the link utilization violation to occur. If the link utilization violation occurs consecutively and exceeds the count you have specified here, then Routing Director reacts to the link utilization violation and reroutes the label-switched path (LSP) to an alternative path that meets the link utilization criteria. If you don’t specify a count or specify the count as 0, the LSP is not rerouted in case of a violation. Ensure that you specify link utilization violation interval when specifying link utilization violation count. The violation count has higher precedence over threshold rerouting interval. Range: 1 through 255 |
|
Link Utilization Violation Interval |
Intervals refers to the time period over which consecutive violations must occur for a rerouting event to take place. Specify the interval (in minutes) for consecutive link utilization violation to occur. Routing Director reacts to the link utilization violation and reroutes the label-switched path (LSP) to an alternative path that meets the link utilization criteria if the time between two consecutive violations do not exceed the time that you have specified here. If you don’t specify the interval or specify the interval as 0, Routing Director will not reroute LSP in case of a violation. Ensure that you specify link utilization violation count when specifying link utilization violation interval. Range: 1 through 300 |
|
Tunnel Delay Violation Interval |
Intervals refers to the time period over which consecutive violations must occur for a rerouting event to take place. Specify the interval (in minutes) for consecutive tunnel delay violation to occur. Routing Director reacts to the tunnel delay violation and reroutes the label-switched path (LSP) to an alternative path that meets the link utilization criteria if the time between two consecutive violations do not exceed the time that you have specified here. If you don’t specify the interval or specify the interval as 0, the LSP is not rerouted in case of a violation. Ensure that you specify tunnel delay violation interval when specifying tunnel delay violation count. Range: 1 through 300 |
|
Tunnel Delay Violation Count |
Count refers to the number of times a violation must occur for a rerouting event to take place. Specify the count for consecutive tunnel delay violation to occur. If the tunnel delay violation occurs consecutively and exceeds the count you have specified here, then Routing Director reacts to the tunnel delay violation and reroutes the label-switched path (LSP) to an alternative path that meets the link utilization criteria. If you don’t specify a count or specify the count as 0, the LSP is not rerouted in case of a violation. Ensure that you specify tunnel delay violation interval when specifying tunnel delay violation count. The Tunnel Delay Violation Interval and Tunnel Delay Violation Count has higher precedence over Threshold Rerouting Interval. Range: 1 through 255 |
|
Interface Delay Type |
Choose the preferred interface delay type (minimum, maximum, or average). Routing director uses the chosen interface delay type to determine the best path for LSPs. The default value is average. |
|
Bandwidth Sizing |
Enable the toggle button if you want Routing Director to perform the bandwidth sizing of LSPs that are bandwidth-sizing enabled. You need to specify Adjustment Period and Statistical Function values for bandwidth sizing. |
|
Adjustment Period* |
Specify the frequency [in minutes (m), hours (h), or days (d)] at which Routing Director must perform the bandwidth sizing of LSPs. Range: 15 minutes through any number of days. |
|
Statistical Function* |
Select one of the following statistical function to be applied by Routing Director to compute the new planned bandwidth for bandwidth sizing-enabled LSPs:
|
|
Org Table Retention* |
|
|
Cleanup Frequency* |
Specify how often (in days) the database pruning (clean up) must happen for your organization. Range: 1 through 10 days |
|
Simulation Reports * |
Specify the number of days that you want to retain the simulated reports for your organization. Range: 1 through 180 days |
|
Global Table Retention |
|
|
Healthcheck Reports* |
Specify the number of days that you want to retain the health check reports for all organizations in your network. Range: 1 through 180 days |
