ISP Backbone Network Monitoring

Scenario

An Internet Service Provider (ISP) operates a large-scale network across multiple cities. The Network Operations Center (NOC) needs real-time monitoring of core routers, including CPU utilization, link bandwidth usage, and BGP peer status. Instead of polling data periodically using SNMP, they implement OcNOS Streaming Telemetry Dial-Out Mode to push telemetry data directly to a central collector.

Implementation

Enable streaming telemetry on core routers handling internet traffic.
Configure sensor groups to monitor BGP neighbors, interface utilization, and hardware health.
Set up a telemetry collector (Prometheus, InfluxDB, or a custom-built system) to receive dial-out telemetry streams.
Establish persistent subscriptions for real-time alerts on link congestion, dropped packets, and CPU spikes.

For step-by-step configurations, refer to the Dial-Out configuration section.
