Description

Utilize Network Watcher to monitor and troubleshoot networking problems without the need to access your virtual machines (VMs) directly. You can initiate packet captures by configuring alerts and obtain real-time performance insights at the packet level. Upon detecting an issue, you have the opportunity to conduct a thorough investigation to enhance your diagnosis. Additionally, delve into your network traffic patterns with the aid of network security group flow logs and virtual network flow logs. The insights garnered from these flow logs are invaluable for collecting data related to compliance, auditing, and overseeing your network security posture. Network Watcher also empowers you to identify and analyze common VPN gateway and connection issues, enabling not only the pinpointing of the problem but also utilizing the comprehensive logs generated for deeper analysis. This comprehensive approach allows you to maintain a robust and secure networking environment.

Description

Focusing solely on latency or bandwidth use often falls short of what is necessary for effective network management. Engaging in network stress testing reveals the potential impact that sudden spikes in packet volume can have on the performance of network devices. The WAN Killer tool available in Engineer’s Toolset acts as a network stress testing utility by generating and dispatching packets, which helps to illustrate how devices might respond to unexpected or severe increases in traffic. Insights gained from these stress tests can guide you in fortifying your infrastructure before serious problems arise. By simulating network traffic, you adopt a proactive stance toward network performance management, which is particularly beneficial when preparing to deploy a new application across your network. Additionally, you can utilize simulated traffic to evaluate whether your application's data receives the necessary prioritization. If deficiencies are identified, you can address them to ensure that you maintain the highest quality of service possible. This proactive approach not only enhances reliability but also ensures a seamless user experience during critical operations.
