• In the data center, Cisco Network Assurance Engine uses continuous verification of the entire network to help keep businesses running as intended, even as the network changes dynamically.
• In campus and branch networks, Cisco DNA Center Assurance provides a new level of insight and visibility to reduce the time and money IT spends troubleshooting across wired and wireless environments.
• And, for organizations with distributed IT operations, Cisco Meraki Wireless Health reduces downtime spent troubleshooting wireless issues through advanced analytics and insights capabilities.
Intent-based or self-adaptive networks interpret and translate business needs into network policies and activate them across the infrastructure. With the introduction of assurance capabilities, they can now continuously verify that the network is operating as intended.
Cisco today announced three powerful new verification solutions that further demonstrate how self-adaptive network systems are evolving at the speed of digital business.
In data center networks, Cisco is enabling continuous verification through Cisco Network Assurance Engine. It provides IT teams with the ability to instantly discover when and why the network is not performing as expected, and then offers suggestions for resolving the issue.
With ACI and Tetration, Cisco provides the ability to interpret application intent, translate it, and enforce those policies across the network. Now, with Network Assurance Engine, Cisco offers the final element of intent-based networking: intent verification.
Across campuses and remote branch offices, Cisco enables everything to become a sensor, adding intelligence from the network, applications, devices, and objects to provide IT with a complete understanding of what's happening. These capabilities will reduce the time IT teams spend troubleshooting by 43 percent and optimize the employee and customer experience.
Cisco DNA Center Assurance provides a 360-degree contextual view encompassing the what, who, how, where, and when. For both wired and wireless environments, it offers a comprehensive overview of what's happening between users and applications—in real time, historically, and with predictive capabilities.
With Cisco Meraki Wireless Health, the IT department also gains visibility and advanced analytics capabilities to resolve wireless issues faster and provide a better user experience. Cisco Meraki is based on a cloud-managed model to automate operations, simplifying IT complexity.
