eSight Integrated Enterprise NMS

As the network scales and the number of enterprise network applications continue to grow, so does the number of devices, such as multi-service routers, gateways, and WLAN Access Points (APs), which enable communication and collaboration in decentralized networks like enterprise campus networks and branch ofce networks. An increasing number of core and access devices from multiple vendors are used in the enterprise, each with its own management system, creating a nightmare for the system and network administrators.

Product Overview
Huawei eSight is a next-generation comprehensive and integrated IP+IT network operation and maintenance (O&M) system developed to manage enterprise resources, services, and users in compliance with Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) standards.

Product Components
eSight provides a unied O&M platform as well as specic components to meet the demands of enterprise customers. Component Description Provides compact, standard, and professional editions for enterprise users. eSight Unied Network Management Platform In addition to unied management of devices from various vendors, topology management, fault management, performance management, smart conguration tool, conguration le management, and SNMP northbound interface, eSight Unied Network Management Platform allows users to customize third-party devices, helping users to establish a network management system catering for their own needs. Provides preset report templates to meet requirements in most management scenarios. Provides the professional report design tool for users to customize statistics reports. Integrates with devices network quality analysis (NQA) function to diagnose and measure the link performance between network devices 24/7 hours and displays quality of service (QoS) statistics. Administrators can set the QoS threshold. eSight noties administrators remotely when QoS reaches the threshold. Administrators can use the quick diagnosis function to monitor link performance in real time and diagnose faults, which improves management efciency. eSight QoS Manager eSight WLAN Manager Monitors network QoS in real time. Provides multi-dimensional data analysis and displays QoS information in graphs and dashboards, simplifying network management. Integrates the management of wired and wireless networks and implements batch service deployment, service adjustment, troubleshooting, and routine maintenance. Collects trafc of routers and Layer 3 switches, analyzes network trafc based on the NetFlow, NetStream, and sFlow protocols, and allows users to customize reports. This helps network administrators to monitor the trafc and bandwidth usage and detect network bottlenecks in a timely manner, providing evidence for network planning and fault diagnosis. Works with the MPLS function of routers and switches to provide visible end-to-end (E2E) MPLS service monitoring and faults diagnosis. Automatically discovers the MPLS TE tunnels and LDP tunnels that have been deployed on the network, monitors the tunnels in real time, displays tunnel running status dynamically, and monitors active-standby switchover and bypasses. Monitors network resources (including physical servers, VMs, vSwitches, and TOR switches), displays the topology of virtual resources and physical devices, and dynamically adjusts physical network proles based on VM changes.

eSight Campus Network Integrated Management Solution Integrated management of wired and wireless networks: eSight's open platform supports IP devices from Cisco, HP and other vendors, and provides unied management of campus devices such as switches, routers, WLAN devices, and rewalls. Visualized quality management: SLA Manager can be used with the NQA function of network devices to help evaluate packet loss ratio, delay, and jitter. This realizes timely fault diagnosis and provides a good user experience in enterprise campus networks. Visible trafc management: Fine-grained trafc management at the campus egress allows allocation of sufcient bandwidth for audio, video, and Internet services.

Network Description Characteristics of enterprise campus networks: A campus network includes enterprise resources such as network equipment, employees, and core business data. An increasing number of enterprises deploy wireless devices on their networks. Enterprises need an O&M system for unied management of wired and wireless networks and an intelligent authentication system to protect their core assets. eSight solution: The integrated eSight management solution manages both wired and wireless devices, displays trafc and QoS statistics, protects core enterprise assets, and improves operation and maintenance efciency.

Network Description Characteristics of branch networks: Enterprises usually have a large campus network and multiple branches. Enterprise applications are deployed on branch networks and these applications require access to data from enterprise branches in other locations. In order to isolate enterprise services, MPLS service is often deployed on the enterprise network. How to manage these cross-regional branch networks and how to make these networks better serve enterprise applications and promote enterprise services have become new challenge. eSight solution: eSight provides enterprise customers with a multi-branch visible network management solution that allows enterprise customers to view the network, devices, quality, trafc, and services. This simplies O&M and helps employees enjoy high quality online experiences. 1. The eSight standard edition with the SLA Manager, the Network Trafc Analyzer, and the MPLS VPN Manager is recommended for use on enterprise branch networks. eSight standard edition provides a lightweight web-based management system to implement easy, unied management of branches. 2. SLA Manager conducts end-to-end network quality testing, evaluation, and diagnosis to help quickly detect network problems on branches. 3. NTA monitors network trafc at the branch network egress. It employs rened management to ensure proper use of network resources and provide trafc data that can be used to plan bandwidth expansion or trafc policy optimization on enterprise branch networks. 4. MPLS VPN Manager connects all enterprise branches to realize visible management of the entire enterprise network. The end-to-end MPLS service view and SLA testing of MPLS services guarantee the operation of key services. It realizes one-click fault diagnosis of services, devices, and ports to facilitate network O&M. 5. LogCenter Log Manager provides distributed log management solution to guarantee network tend can be controllable.

eSight Data Center Automatic Management Scheme Visualized management of physical and virtual resources: eSight DC nCenter displays the connection and running status of devices in real time, including the subordinate and connection relationship between physical TOR switches, physical servers, vSwitches, and VMs. Automatic migration of the data center network: DC nCenter detects VM changes (for example, a VM goes online, goes ofine, or is migrated) through vCenter, and synchronizes virtual network congurations to the physical network by changing network congurations between source and destination TOR switches. Automatic assessment of data center KQIs: eSight monitors data center interface trafc and conducts SLA analysis for key services. This helps users to detect faults in advance and quickly diagnose faults, ensuring the QoS of the data center.

Network Description Characteristics of data center networks: The VM technology is widely used in data centers to reduce the number of required servers and enhance service reliability. A data center needs to manage not only the physical network but also the virtual network. How to ensure service continuity during VM migration is a difculty in data center management. The eSight professional edition, SLA Manager, Network Trafc Analyzer, and DC nCenter are recommended for a data center network. The deployment provides these functions: 1. The eSight professional edition uniformly manages data center resources. 2. SLA Manager checks network QoS in E2E mode, displays network QoS statistics, and diagnoses faults by link. This helps to locate and rectify faults on a data center network in a timely manner. 3. Network Trafc Analyzer monitors network application trafc at the data center egress and provides rened management to ensure proper utilization of enterprise network resources. This also provides the basis for enterprise network expansion and trafc policy optimization. 4. DC nCenter uniformly monitors network resources (including physical servers, VMs, vSwitches, and TOR switches), displays the topology of virtual resources and physical devices, and dynamically adjusts physical network policies based on VM changes.
