The recent update to ONES, version 3.1, introduces enhancements aimed at optimizing troubleshooting processes and increasing visibility into network protocols. IT leaders may find the new features beneficial for improving operational efficiency.

Default Rules with Troubleshooting Hints

The updated Rule Engine now includes preconfigured Default Rules derived from real-world deployments. Each rule is equipped with industry-standard thresholds along with an embedded playbook for ease of use.

Operators can initiate monitoring for various components, including CPUs and fans, utilizing sensible defaults. The alerts generated not only inform about issues but also provide actionable steps for resolution, effectively aiding in reducing Mean Time To Repair (MTTR).

Alerting Rules: Preview & Download

Transparency in rule management is enhanced with two new capabilities. Users can now preview rules inline to view key settings without navigating to different pages.

Additionally, a CSV export function allows for the downloading of a comprehensive rules inventory, which can facilitate audits and reviews.

Traffic Comparison

Traffic distribution analysis has been improved, enabling comparisons across up to eight interfaces. This functionality aids in identifying imbalances and potential bottlenecks in network performance.

Optics Analytics

The optics widget presents a detailed summary of optics inventory, organized by type and vendor. Users have the option to export this data for detailed audits, facilitating better planning for upgrades and inventory management.

Protocol Enhancements

MC-LAG Visualization

A new filter in the topology view now highlights devices configured with Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation (MC-LAG), providing immediate visibility into redundancy design.

Event-Driven State Transitions

The Protocols page records only relevant state transitions for protocols, allowing users to filter changes by time window, simplifying actionable insights for network management.

VLAN Information

Users can access a consolidated Virtual LAN (VLAN) summary network-wide through the updated interface, with detailed drill-downs for individual devices, showing associated ports and SVI details without Command-Line Interface (CLI) interaction.

Conclusion

ONES 3.1 enhances daily operational tasks through preconfigured rules, streamlined auditing processes, comparative traffic analysis, and improved protocol visibility. This updated version offers a more efficient pathway from identifying issues to resolution.
