Key Anomalies in Impact Analysis

date_range 28-Feb-25

Understand the key anomalies listed in Impact Analysis.

The Impact Analysis feature displays anomalies that are detected within the Data Center network with the help of predefined IBA probes. On a Juniper Apstra instance, an IBA probe takes a set of data from the network, performs aggregations and calculations on it, and raises an anomaly if specific conditions are not met. This information is sent to the Juniper Apstra Edge device which further passes on the data to Juniper Apstra Cloud Services. The Impact Analysis feature determines the key anomaly and its associated anomalies from this data. It also pulls reports on the services and clients affected by the key anomaly and displays comprehensive information in the Impact Analysis page of the Juniper Apstra Cloud Services UI. This feature enables the network administrator to quickly identify and resolve the root cause of an anomaly, thus reducing the impact on the network.

Note:

You must enable IBA probes on the Juniper Apstra instance in order to detect anomalies in the network. For more information, see Instantiate Predefined Probe in the Juniper Apstra User Guide.

The tables below list key anomalies displayed in the Anomalies tab on the ACS UI and the IBA probes that raise the anomalies detected in the network.

  • Table 1 lists key anomalies that are detected on the devices in the network.

  • Table 2 lists key anomalies that are detected on the interfaces of any given device in the network.

  • Table 3 lists key anomalies that you can create and enable if required in your organization.
