How to Monitor Connections

Votes:

0

Hello,

We have two Fiber Lines that we BGP Peer with and occasionally we have latency issues that I cannot track down and the customer service at the carriers can be hit or miss.

Can anyone advise me on the best way to monitor our Incoming Connections simply? I basically just want ot be able to detect packet loss, latency, and outages.

Thanks!

Hello Travis,

We have here something regarding monitoring BGP, but it might no be really what you're after.

Maybe deploying a remote probe outside your network and using QoS sensors could be interesting as well.

Kind regards,

Erhard

Hi Erhard,

We do have a server in Canada. Perhaps put a remote probe with a QoS Sensor to see what is going on?
