The “black hole” part of RTBH refers to the fact that edge routers are typically provisioned with a static route (commonly 192.0.2.1) Any traffic routed to that virtual interface is simply dropped, never to be heard from again. Using iBGP, traffic can be redistributed to this static route on your own network’s edge routers.

Why Every ISP Needs a Robust Network Monitoring Solution. Given the advanced capabilities provided by cloud and big data technology, there’s no longer any justification for legacy monitoring appliances that summarize away all the details and force operators to swivel between siloed tools. That’s why we started Kentik.

Network Performance Monitoring with Kentik Detect and nProbe. It’s up to IT and network engineering groups to address performance, but to do so they need effective ways to measure and monitor. Modern network performance monitoring. As an example, we’ll use traffic from Kentik’s own servers. TCP is the key.

Now that the traffic is routing over the Internet, encryption becomes a must have. E-commerce websites have been dealing with this for years but most enterprise WAN sites were spared due to the private IP routing they were using on MPLS VPN services. The first aspect that comes to mind is privacy of the data.

On May 27 of this year, Gartner Research Director Sanjit Ganguli released a research note titled “Network Performance Monitoring Tools Leave Gaps in Cloud Monitoring.” In the note, Ganguli makes a number of key points in explaining the gap in cloud monitoring. The first is that traditional NPM solutions are of a bygone era.

Virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) has been around for years as a technology. However, for those in charge of monitoring a network, there has never been a solution capable of providing full visibility into the end-to-end VRF traffic that flows in and out of a network. Kentik is changing that. A Refresh: What is VRF?

BGP routing data is another important data source. BGP can enrich network traffic data to visualize traffic per BGP path for peering analytics and also to inject routes that enable DDoS mitigation capabilities such as RTBH and Flowspec.

How BGP-enabled Visibility Cuts Transit Costs. You need a path-aware traffic analytics system that shows traffic volumes on various routes, both historically, for planning, and in real time to detect transit links that are nearing their CIR so that you can take corrective action.

In the prevailing appliance-based model, an out-of-band appliance detects attacks based on NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, and BGP data. Luckily, cloud-scale big data systems make it possible to implement a far more intelligent approach to the problem: Monitor the network-wide traffic level of millions of individual IP addresses.
