Network QoS
Network QoS parameters:
Delay
Packet Loss
Jitter
Packet Sequencing
Bit error rate
Voice/Video Quality
Network Emulators can help determine the Network Quality of Service (QoS)
that is required in order to run your business.
Quality of Service is the concept that data rates, errors and other network
characteristics can be measured, improved upon, and guaranteed. Collectively
these metrics are known as Quality of Service (QoS) parameters. Network
managers and providers must ensure the proper QoS is in place to ensure
network-centric applications run properly. QoS also allows a network to
provide better service to selected network traffic, by prioritizing certain
types of traffic over others.
Network QoS is often specified by Service Level Agreements (SLAs), which
exists between the network manager or provider and the end-user, covering
items such as data reliability, availability, latency, throughput and
security.
“How do I emulate different network SLAs to determine if they will
provide the Network QoS that meets my business needs?”
When it comes to SLAs and Network QoS, it’s all about network performance.
Performance of mission critical enterprise applications, and performance
of network intensive applications such as VOIP, Video over IP, streaming
media and VPNs.
For the Enterprise User .. you must ensure that your network performance
is sufficient for your business requirements and determine the required
SLA for acceptable application performance.
For the Equipment or Solution Provider .. you need confidence that you
can deliver Network QoS to your customers! Network QoS is essential for
providing new services and applications to your customers and avoiding
SLA penalties.
Anue Network Emulators help you do this. With the Anue Network Emulator,
you can specify the exact level of errors, delay and other impairments
to inject into network traffic. By running your critical enterprise applications
in this type of “emulated” environment, you can determine
what SLA you must establish and maintain based on performance and availability.
With Anue Network Emulators, you can emulate QoS and SLA parameters in
a lab environment - accurately, repeatedly and efficiently – in
order to:
Determine which QoS class of service is best suited for your network applications.
Assess the sensitivity of your applications to traditional QoS parameters
such as bandwidth, packet loss, delay, and jitter.
Emulate various SLAs to ensure that your QoS requirements are being met
and that you are not “overengineering your network” and paying
for a higher level of service than you need.
Determine how your network and network devices will perform when QoS is
not occurring in the network.
Enable rapid troubleshooting of network performance bottlenecks.
Conduct effective capacity planning by understanding end-to-end performance
of critical applications under various network impairment scenarios.
