In this Demo
  • Combining Apstra with AIML capabilities, Marvis VNA has become even more powerful with the addition of Service Awareness.
  • Service Awareness provides a rich graphical perspective on the services traversing the network, grouped by volume.
  • Let's view the services currently active on this fabric.
  • Let us select this particular service to view  where in the network this traffic traverses.
  • Selecting this particular service, we can see where in the network this traffic traverses.Let us ungroup this client object to see details about the application endpoints.
  • From a visual simplicity perspective, click here to reduce the clutter in this view, allowing us to focus on the path this service follows.
  • Click here for the dropdown menu
  • Click to choose the flow view
  • Switching to the Flow view allows us to see characteristics about the Pop 3 traffic on individual links in the fabric.
  • Note the details about link interfaces and the flow volumes as we hover over the server to leaf links.
  • Choosing this filter view to choose time intervals, specific services and layers.
  • We can choose the different time intervals as shown here.
  • We can specify difference services as shown
  • We can also choose to display the different types of devices as layers. Once we have specified the options, click done.
  • Service Awareness provides an additional function that allows the network service state to be compared over two different date and time ranges.
  • Choose the desired time range
  • Once the time and date ranges have been set, the slider moves through the view to display the differences in the service state at that particular moment.
  • As the slider moves through the timeline, we can change the comparison to the flow view, which allows us to see changes in the service volume over the selected time.
  • Marvis VNA for Data Center Service Awareness provides a new and unique way to visualize how the data center fabric is being utilized.
