With Cisco ThousandEyes Campus Service Assurance and Cisco Catalyst 9000 switches, you can gain end-to-end insights into campus networks to make troubleshooting easier. Review this solution brief to see how it works.
What is Cisco ThousandEyes?
Cisco ThousandEyes is a solution that provides end-to-end visibility from campus networks to internet, SaaS, and cloud-based services. It helps organizations monitor and optimize application performance across various networks, ensuring that service delivery outcomes are met, even when external factors are involved. This visibility can significantly reduce fault isolation time from days to minutes and allows for evidence-based escalations with service providers.
How does ThousandEyes integrate with Catalyst switches?
Cisco ThousandEyes integrates seamlessly with Catalyst 9300 and 9400 Series switches, particularly when paired with a Cisco DNA Advantage subscription. This integration allows enterprises to gain insights into external services from within their campus LAN, track employee experiences in SaaS applications, and measure network performance. Each subscription includes one network/web test running at 5-minute intervals, enhancing visibility into application performance and network health.
What are the next steps for implementing ThousandEyes?
Organizations considering the implementation of Cisco ThousandEyes with their Catalyst 9300 or 9400 Series switches should contact their Cisco representative for guidance. If they already own switches with a Cisco DNA Essentials subscription, they can inquire about upgrading to unlock the full benefits of ThousandEyes. For those with Cisco DNA Advantage subscriptions, they can check their Cisco Smart Software Manager for entitlements and follow the provided instructions to deploy the ThousandEyes Enterprise Agents.
