Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Provider Connectivity Assurance Sensor SFP zero-touch provisioning

Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP) and IPv4/IPv6 management make these Provider Connectivity Assurance Sensor SFPs easy and secure to deploy and manage. The Assurance Sensor SFP IP address can be assigned dynamically or manually.

ZTP is fully integrated with the Provider Connectivity Assurance platform. It also supports service delivery automation and scalable, real-time metrics collection and reporting of actionable insights for delivery and machine learning needed for accelerated service rollout and improved operational efficiencies.

Performance

TWAMP

      Maximum sessions: 4000 @ 20 PPS/session

      Maximum number of PPS: 80000 (share across the 4000 sessions)

      Maximum rate per session: 250 PPS/session @ maximum session = 320

Traffic loopback

      TWAMP reflector @ line rate for unlimited number of stateless sessions

      TWAMP reflector @ line rate for up 16 TWAMP stateful sessions

      User-configurable loopback Layer 2 to Layer 4 at line rate

RFC2544 and Y.1564

      Provider Connectivity Assurance Sensor SFPs support full line-rate test traffic generation.

      Provider Connectivity Assurance Sensor SFPs can create and analyze up to four Layer 2 or 3 unique fully fledged RFC-2544 and Y.1564 Service Activation Test (SAT) suite toward the Assurance platform or third-party endpoints.

    This allows service providers to test a service path at turn-up and revalidate on-demand the capacity of a specific path or service during maintenance windows or when troubleshooting.

      Provider Connectivity Assurance Sensor SFPs can be located anywhere in the network, removing the limitation and expense of required head-end test equipment.

      Provider Connectivity Assurance Sensor SFPs support SAT testing at line rate for any packet size with 1-usec delay measurement accuracy.

Flowmeter

      The flowmeter capability precisely measures bandwidth and reveal transient peaks or microbursts that cause TCP throughput delays.

      Using Provider Connectivity Assurance platform, flowmeter processes per-flow bandwidth usage metrics from Sensor SFP time-stamps, and byte and packet counters, to accurately report minimum and maximum average bandwidth metrics for configurable reports on sub-second sampling intervals.

      When correlated together with packet loss and other measurements, service providers can detect network bottlenecks and plan capacity—key metrics to assure and enforce the delivery of off-net services.

      The flowmeter capability separately monitors upload and download usage statistics.

      Flowmeter’s per-service metering enables usage-based billing, burst detection, trending, and traffic pattern analysis.

FlowBroker

      The FlowBroker is a flexible, remote packet capture solution that provides all-layer, end-to-end network visibility through efficient brokering, lossless delivery, and granular/shared filters.

      FlowBroker enables Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) to ensure the integrity of the data going through the network, as well as application reliability and network efficiency.

      Remote Packet Capture for 1G transceivers only.

Platform support

Provider Connectivity Assurance Sensor SFPs are currently in the certification process on many Cisco platforms. With respect to Cisco platforms the S1G’s and S10G’s have similar behavior to standard SFP’s and SFP+’s and may work directly as unsupported transceivers. Please refer to the Transceiver Module Group (TMG) Compatibility Matrix. Also if the S1G’s are S10G’s are not listed please contact Cisco sales for an update on status of platform support.
