Integrated troubleshooting with Cisco Medianet
In conjunction with Cisco Medianet, Cisco Prime Collaboration Manager delivers richer end-to-end information that
helps operators more easily identify and isolate video issues. Collaboration Manager uses Cisco Medianet to provide
enhanced path computation, statistics collection, and synthetic traffic generation.
When network devices are Medianet-enabled, Collaboration Manager provides
●
Deeper, flow-related information along the video path using Mediatrace (Figure 3)
●
The ability to use synthetic video traffic from network devices to assess video performance on a network. This
uses Medianet IP service-level agreement (IP SLA) video operations
