Peer Path Insights

Get insights into the status of peer paths at a site or organization level.

The Peer Path Insights dashboard provides insights into the peer paths across an organization. A peer path refers to a connection between SSR Series Routers over a WAN network to enable redundancy and optimal performance. In a large-scale deployment, this dashboard is useful to identify sites experiencing a high number of peer path issues.

Features

  • Provides insights into the peer path down events across sites in an organization.

  • Lists the top sites and peer paths experiencing path down events and duration of the events.

  • Provides a timeline analysis of the path down events.
