Creating SD-WAN Tenant Performance Report Definitions

Use the SD-WAN Report Definitions page to create SD-WAN tenant performance report definitions for all sites in a tenant and generate reports based on the definitions. SD-WAN tenant performance reports enable you to analyze tenant performance based on the following parameters that measure the SLA performance across all sites in a tenant:

  • Top applications by bandwidth

  • Top sites not meeting SLA

  • Top sites meeting SLA with switching

  • Sites meeting SLA without switching

  • Top sites by current active tunnels

  • Top sites by highest packet loss

  • Top sites by highest latency

  • Top sites by highest jitter

Note:

Only users with the Tenant Administrator role can create SD-WAN tenant performance report definitions.

To create an SD-WAN tenant performance report definition:

  1. Select Reports > Report Definitions > SD-WAN.

    The SD-WAN Report Definitions page appears.

  2. Click Add > Tenant Performance .

    The Add SD-WAN Tenant Performance Report Definition page appears.

  3. Complete the configuration according to the guidelines provided in Table 1.
    Note:

    Fields marked with * are mandatory.

  4. Click OK to save the report definition.

    The report definition is saved and the SD-WAN Report Definitions page appears.

    A confirmation message appears on top of this page, indicating that the report definition is successfully created.

Table 1: Fields on the Create Tenant Performance Report Definition

Field

Description
General

Report Name

Enter a unique name for the report definition.

The name can contain a string of alphanumeric characters and some special characters (colons, periods, dashes, and underscores); no spaces are allowed and the maximum length allowed is 63 characters.

Description

Enter a description for the report definition; maximum length allowed is 1024 characters.
Content

Time Span

Specify the duration (last 24 hours, last 7 days, last 30 days, or custom) for which you want the report to be generated.

If you select Custom, the From and To fields appear:

  • From—Specify the start date and time from which the report should be generated.

  • To—Specify the end date and time up to which the report should be generated.

Number of Top Logs

Enter the number top of SLA records (1 through 20) that you want to retrieve and display for each section in the report.

Report Content

Select the content that you want to view in the report.

  • Top Applications By Bandwidth—Displays a report on top applications by bandwidth.

  • Top Sites Not Meeting SLA—Displays a report on top sites not meeting the SLA performance.

  • Top Sites Meeting SLA with Switching—Displays a report on top sites meeting SLA performance with link switching.

  • Sites Meeting SLA without Switching—Displays report on sites meeting SLA performance without switching.

  • Current Active Tunnels—Displays a report on top 10 sites that have the maximum number of active dynamic mesh tunnels.

  • Top Sites by Highest Packet Loss—Displays a report on top 10 sites based on the highest cumulative average packet loss across all the links.

  • Top Sites by Highest Latency—Displays report on top 10 sites based on the highest cumulative average latency across all the links.

  • Top Sites by Highest Jitter—Displays report on top 10 sites based on the highest cumulative average jitter across all the links.

  • Top WAN Links by Bandwidth Usage—Displays the WAN links that touched the highest output rate (the peak of outbound bandwidth usage) in the last 24 hours. This report is applicable only if you have selected Last 24 Hours as the Time Span.

For more information about SLA parameters and dynamic mesh tunnels, see Traffic Steering Profiles and SD-WAN Policies Overview and Dynamic Mesh Tunnels Overview.
Schedule Report

Add Schedule

Click Add Schedule to schedule the report generation.

The Add Report Schedule page appears.

Specify whether you want to generate the report immediately or schedule it for a later date and time.
