Connected WACREN members are provided with network monitoring and management services that provide graphing, optimise performance and permit the prompt identification and resolution of issues across the network.
Research collaborations span local, national and international network domains therefore end-to-end visibility is necessary for tracking down potential issues and ensuring consistent performance.
The perfSONAR service enables NREN engineers to connect to monitoring points across in the WACREN network and multiple networks worldwide to take robust and non-intrusive measurements to locate and troubleshoot performance issues. Support for small, inexpensive devices extends this service in a way that allows NRENs to include member campuses and support them in the monitoring of their internal networks.
