Routing Data and Test Results

This topic provides information about the results of the tests that Paragon Automation executes to determine that the states of all BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, RSVP, LSP, and LDP neighbors are healthy.

Overview

The Routing and MPLS accordion displays the routing data and results of the tests that Paragon Automation executes to:

  • Determine that the peering states of all BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, RSVP, LSP, and LDP neighbors are healthy and without extensive flaps.

    Note:

    A healthy peering state is marked Up/Active. An unhealthy peering state is marked Down.

  • Validate that the expected number of entries are available in the routing and forwarding tables.

You can also view relevant events, if any, on the Routing and MPLS accordion.

To access the Routing and MPLS accordion, navigate to the Observability > Health > Troubleshoot Devices page. Click a device name to access the Device-Name page. Click the Routing and MPLS (accordion) in the Overview tab.

The top-right corner of the accordion displays state of the overall health of the routing components. The various states are:

  • Healthy—The BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, RSVP, LSP, and LDP neighbors are healthy. The entries in the routing and forwarding tables are accurate.

  • Being Monitored—The health of the routing neighbors and entries in the routing and forwarding tables is being monitored.

  • Action Needed—The routing neighbors and entries in the routing and forwarding tables have issues that you must address.

  • Urgent Action Needed—The routing neighbors and entries in the routing and forwarding tables have issues that you must address immediately.

Table 1 lists the results of the routing tests.

View the state of LSP peers. These peers are listed in the order of severity of the alerts that have occurred on them. The peers with the most critical alerts appear at the top of the list.

Click the toggle button next to a peer in the Show Peers list to view the performance and alerts of that peer in a graph. See Performance Graphs for more information.

Performance Graphs

The graphs on the LSP Details for Device-Name page display information about the state of LSP peers and LSP flaps. You can also view information on alerts and breaches, if any, on these graphs.

As an example. consider the LSP State accordion on the LSP Details for Device-Name page. The peers are listed on the left of the accordion, in the order of severity of alerts that have occurred on them. You can view up to six peers at a time. To view peers that are not listed, click the Select Peers drop-down list and select the peer. However, you must clear a previously selected peer to be able to select another peer.

Click the toggle button next to the name of the peer to view the performance of that peer in a graph. The graph displays two lines showing the high (in orange) and critical (in red) threshold levels related to the alerts that have occurred. Another line on the graph displays the data points related to alerts that have occurred on the peer. The color of the data points depend on the color of the peer that you have selected. The color of the peer is assigned automatically. Click any data point to view more information about the corresponding event in a pop-up. The cause for the alert, if any, is also displayed.

To view the performance of more than one peer on the graph, click the toggle button next to the name of the peer in the Show Peers list. Details of the interfaces displayed on the graph are also listed in a table below the graph. You can also click the option buttons on the left of a peer name in the table to highlight the graph for that peer.

You can view performance for a week, a day, 3 hours, 1 hour, 30 minutes, or a custom time period. By default, information for the past 30 minutes is displayed. To change this period, click the Week, Day, 3 hrs, 1 hr, 30 mins, or Custom buttons provided above the graph.

The graph auto-refreshes at an interval depending on the time range for which the information is displayed. See Table 13 for more information. However, you can refresh the graph at any point by clicking the refresh icon provided above the graph.

Table 13: Auto-Refresh State
Time Range Auto-Refreshed
Weekly Every 16.8 hours
Daily Every 58 minutes
Every three hours Every 8 minutes
Hourly Every 3 minutes
Thirty minutes Every 2 minutes
Custom No auto-refresh

You can also click the pop-out button next to the graph to open the graph in a new tab and view all customizations that you made on the graph in the parent tab, in the new tab.

The most critical alert (issues and anomalies) is displayed just above the graph and next to the quick chart. To view other alerts, click the link just below the alert. The quick chart displays the performance of the peer that you selected from the Select Peers drop-down list. However, if alerts related to the performance of any peer is generated, the peer with the most severe alert is displayed on the quick chart by default.

Alerts, if any, related to peers are displayed on the graph, and in the table below the graph. You can also open the graph in a new tab by clicking the pop-out button. When you open a graph in a new tab, you can view the following information in the new tab as well:

  • Alerts that are present in the home tab are also present in the newly opened tab as well.

  • Alerts are refreshed across all open tabs simultaneously.

  • List of peers that you toggled to view from the Select Interfaces drop-down list is available across all tabs.

  • Peer that you selected from the table below the graph are available across all tabs.

You can similarly view the graphs and alerts related to LSP flaps on this page.
