What is Cisco IP SLA?
Cisco IP Service Level Agreement (Cisco IP SLA), originally developed by Cisco Systems, is a network measurement technology. It enables the generation of synthetic network traffic between different network devices, such as routers or switches. By continuously testing this traffic, Cisco IP SLA provides valuable insights into network performance, latency, jitter, packet loss, and other metrics, offering an objective evaluation to assess the network's service quality. It supports a wide range of network performance metrics and can simulate various types of network services.
How to monitor Cisco IP SLA?
ServicePilot makes it very easy to monitor Cisco IP SLA. Simply configure the SNMP interface of the Cisco IP SLA enabled device. Then use the ServicePilot web interface to add a resource from the ServicePilot network-cisco-ip-sla package.
