Software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) monitoring helps improve the availability, performance, and security of your network. Once you add an SD-WAN monitor to Site24x7, you can:
Choose your preferred method—SNMP, Cisco IPSLA, or APIs—to enhance visibility, optimize performance, and improve operational efficiency.
Manage multiple networks in one place to track availability and performance while also identifying and resolving issues quickly.
Receive timely notification of network outages for quickly resolving issues, minimizing disruptions, and maintaining service availability.
Conveniently track and manage network performance on Android and iOS apps, and receive real-time insights 24/7.
Compared to vendor-provided tools that require a separate application for each network, monitoring tools like Site24x7 let you monitor all your SDNs, SD-WANs, and on-premises networks in one place. Such tools can provide you complete observability across your organizations, minimizing downtime and reducing costs by eliminating tool sprawl.
Monitor any custom metric from MIB files through custom SNMP monitoring or use Cisco IPSLA to monitor the round-trip time and latency. If you are monitoring your SD-WANs through APIs, here's a list of all the metrics that are displayed in our tool.

Leverage customizable dashboards and generate detailed reports that help you view the most relevant metrics, analyze trends, and track anomalies.
Move towards a cohesive monitoring strategy by integrating with various third-party tools and services like ServiceNow, Jira, and more.
Take advantage of flexible pricing options for businesses of various sizes while also enjoying robust monitoring across your infrastructure, cloud services, and more.
Enjoy round-the-clock support through multiple channels, comprehensive documentation, an active user community, and regular training and webinars to keep you updated on the latest features.
SD-WAN is a networking concept that uses software to control and manage network connections. In most cases, there is a centralized controller that helps to manage WAN connections. Examples include Cisco Meraki and VMware VeloCloud.
Monitoring SD-WANs involves observing and analyzing the availability, performance, and security-related aspects of SD-WANs. In general, data is collected from various components within the architecture, then it is collated and displayed conveniently on a dashboard, helping network administrators identify potential issues and optimize performance.
SD-WAN networks consist of various components, including controllers, edge devices, and links, each of which can be monitored for performance and reliability. In Site24x7, these components are collectively referred to as SD-WAN network monitors. By adding these components as monitors, organizations can gain valuable insights into the health and efficiency of their infrastructure, ensuring optimal performance and swift troubleshooting when issues arise.
It helps optimize performance by tracking metrics and identifying issues before they impact the users, providing real-time visibility into the network traffic and increasing the overall reliability of the network.
An SD-WAN architecture separates the network control and forwarding functions, allowing the network control function to be programmable and the underlying infrastructure to be abstracted from applications and network services.
Keep an eye on your software-defined networks and on-premises networks in a single tool.
