For those who are in charge of the organisation’s network infrastructure, they need to know that keeping tabs on the health of the network can be a draining and a 24/7 job. Round-the-clock visibility into the network is paramount, and supporting a growing environment demands ever-improving sophistication, intelligence, and awareness.
At Cisco Meraki, they are continuously striving to set the standard for real-time network performance visibility with their AI-powered intelligence dashboard.
Advanced web application insight
With Meraki Health, they give administrators real-time visibility into the performance of their networks, and one key feature is the Web App Health tool, which allows them to:
- Monitor the availability and responsiveness of the web applications and track performance over time,
- Analyse the root cause of performance problems with their web applications by identifying specific issues, and
- View detailed reports and analytics on the health of their web applications, including trends, anomalies, and historical data.
Web App Health tool
The Web App Health tool immediately identified a critical Outlook 365 network outage for a Meraki customer
As an example, in the past few weeks, the Web App Health tool immediately identified a critical Outlook 365 network outage for a Meraki customer.
Without that advanced insight, the IT administrator would have been unable to identify and troubleshoot the critical outage, highlighting the importance of real-time network monitoring.
Streamlined visibility
A robust, critical issue detection tool like Web App Health is essential to understanding the network’s performance. However, if the issues or alerts detected are unclear or difficult to interpret, it limits the efficacy of their AI-driven tools. That’s why they continue to advance the already intuitive and streamlined Meraki health dashboard.
One recent innovation in this area is the launch of the Organisation Alerts page, which provides a centralised view of all alerts across an organisation, making it easier to manage and respond to them. This feature allows administrators to customise how they receive alerts, so they can choose the method that works best for their workflow and create custom rules to trigger alerts for specific events or situations.
The Organisation Alerts page
The Organisation Alerts page and assortment of other intuitive, centralised management hubs in the Meraki dashboard can provide with a comprehensive view of the network infrastructure.
