Tier Support Levels

The detailed operations supported at each level are described as follows:

LevelDescription
Tier-1 Support
  • Monitoring — send SNMP (retrieve data via SNMP) or API request to devices for monitoring.
Tier-2 Support
  • Retrieve live data and live data analysis — automatically and remotely connect to devices by using Telnet/SSH or through controllers, and retrieve live data via show commands or APIs, including configuration file, route table, NDP/MAC/ARP table, and device/interface information.  

    Note: Retrieving data via SNMP belongs to Tier-1 support, not Tier-2.

  • L3/L2 topology
    • L3 topology — build Layer 3 topology from IPv4 addresses in the device configuration files.
    • L2 topology — build Layer 2 topology from NDP tables (such as CDP, LLDP, and FDP), ARP tables and MAC tables. NDP tables are used to calculate the connections between switches, and NDP/MAC/ARP tables are used to calculate the connections between switches and other types of network devices.​
  • Traffic path discovery
    • Basic L3 traffic path — discover and map L3 traffic paths based on route tables.
    • Basic L2 traffic path — discover and map L2 traffic paths based on L2 topology.
Tier-3 Support
  • Design reader — parse configuration files and display them in the tip window and the Design Reader pane.
  • Special vendor features, such as ACL, PBR, Port-Channel, IPsec VPN, MPLS VPN, Failover, IP SLA, Netflow, and virtualization.
    Information Note: A device type in a specific support level is not supposed to support all the operations at that level, and it may only support one or some of the operations. For example, Juniper Router belongs to the Tier-3 level, but it does not support Netflow or IP SLA. For any questions or doubts about multi-vendor support, contact NetBrain Support Team for help.
