Key use cases of Auvik’s network optimization software
Optimizing for network performance requires visibility into your systems’ latency, device health, capacity trends, and traffic patterns. Learn how you can use Auvik’s network optimization tool to eliminate bottlenecks and keep your infrastructure running at peak efficiency.
Assess end-to-end network latency to pinpoint bottlenecks and prioritize traffic optimization
Applications are lagging, VoIP calls are breaking up, and users across multiple sites are complaining about slow response times. Without clear visibility into where delays originate, you’re left to troubleshoot blindly.
Auvik’s network optimization software gives you precise latency insights:
- ICMP ping probes measure round-trip time in milliseconds to every device on your network.
- Time-series graphs plot latency and jitter data historically, so you can spot patterns and recurring issues.
- Endpoint monitoring tracks up to four domains per site to measure cloud service latency.
- Custom threshold alerts notify you the moment latency exceeds acceptable limits.
You’ll identify exactly where delays occur and focus your optimization efforts where they can make the greatest impact.

Evaluate device health and resolve issues before they create performance bottlenecks
A switch is running hot and memory is creeping toward capacity, but you might not be aware of these issues until users report problems. By that point, you’re already dealing with an outage.
Auvik’s network optimizer software monitors device health proactively:
- SNMP polling updates CPU utilization, memory consumption, storage levels, and interface errors continuously.
- Component-level monitoring tracks individual CPU modules, memory, and disk drives for early degradation warnings.
- Real-time dashboards visualize performance metrics with KPIs displayed alongside historical trends.
- Centralized syslog analysis filters messages by severity to surface critical health issues across all devices.
With Auvik’s network optimization capabilities, you’ll be able to catch problems before they snowball into costly workflow interruptions.

Auvik’s network optimization tool turns usage data into capacity intelligence:
- Interface statistics track bandwidth, utilization, packet loss, and discard rates across all network links.
- Visual trend reports display charts and graphs over customizable time periods to reveal growth patterns.
- Configurable threshold alerts warn you when usage approaches critical levels.
- Flow data analysis shows bandwidth consumption by application and user for granular insights.
Our network optimization software allows you to request budgets backed by concrete evidence and plan for upgrades before capacity becomes a crisis.

Correlate device, link, and metrics in one view to expedite root-cause isolation
Your network just slowed to a crawl. Is it a device issue? Link saturation? A rogue application? Alternating between multiple monitoring tools wastes precious minutes and leaves your users waiting for answers.
Auvik’s unified dashboards bring everything together:
- Single-pane views combine device metrics, interface statistics, syslog messages, and flow data into one interface.
- Interactive network maps overlay real-time alerts directly onto affected devices with drill-down capabilities.
- Path visualization traces connectivity end-to-end to identify which device or link causes performance issues.
- History tracking displays change with timestamps so you can rule out recent modifications when troubleshooting.
When you’re evaluating which optimization software is best for your needs, look for one that eliminates tool-switching during critical troubleshooting.

Monitor performance trends and configure custom alerts to prevent outages
Intermittent performance issues can be difficult to diagnose. Performance degrades just enough to frustrate users, but returns to normal before you can properly investigate. Without performance trends and properly tuned alerts, you’re always reacting to complications instead of preventing them.
Auvik’s performance optimization tool gives you the visibility and control you need:
- Historical data retention stores performance metrics with time-series graphs for comprehensive trend analysis.
- Customizable threshold alerts let you configure device-specific limits for CPU, memory, bandwidth, and latency based on your environment.
- 50+ pre-configured alerts provide industry best-practice starting points that you can fine-tune to device type.
- Alert filtering and notification management controls which events trigger notifications, so your team can focus on critical issues.
With properly configured monitoring, you’ll catch issues early instead of scrambling after yet another outage.

Optimize traffic leaving your site
Your organization uses VPNs, multiple internet connections, and direct cloud access, but without visibility into outbound traffic patterns, you can’t make informed decisions about bandwidth allocation, routing policies, or capacity planning.
Auvik’s network optimization software provides the traffic intelligence you need to optimize:
- Flow data collection captures NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, and J-Flow data showing exactly what traffic exits your network.
- Application identification uses machine learning to classify which cloud apps and services consume bandwidth, even with encrypted traffic.
- Geographic visualization maps show where your outbound traffic is going globally to verify expected destinations.
- VPN monitoring tracks SSL VPN session usage, tunnel status, and capacity limits so you can plan for remote worker needs.
- Top talkers analysis reveals which users, devices, and applications drive the most outbound bandwidth.
With clear visibility into what’s leaving your network, you can make data-driven decisions about traffic prioritization, capacity upgrades, and routing policies instead of guessing.

What is network optimization?
Network optimization is the process of analyzing and improving your network’s performance by identifying bottlenecks, reducing latency, managing bandwidth efficiently, and ensuring reliable connectivity. With the proper platform, you can monitor device health, traffic patterns, and capacity trends in real time, enabling you to proactively address issues before they affect users.
How can Auvik identify and resolve bandwidth bottlenecks?
Our network optimization tool collects flow data from NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, and J-Flow protocols to show you exactly which devices, applications, and users are consuming bandwidth. You’ll see top talkers in real time, drill down to specific traffic patterns, and set threshold alerts when usage approaches critical levels.
How does Auvik help with network capacity planning and forecasting?
Our system continuously collects historical bandwidth data and displays trends over adjustable time periods. Visual reports can show growth for planning infrastructure investments before capacity becomes critical.
Can Auvik monitor latency and performance across distributed sites?
Yes. Auvik uses ICMP ping probes to measure round-trip latency to every device at intervals you can configure based on your monitoring needs. Dashboards provide visibility across all locations, highlighting network latency and tracking site-to-site connectivity so you can optimize traffic paths.
How does Auvik establish performance baselines to detect anomalies?
Our platform continuously collects metrics for CPU, memory, bandwidth, latency, jitter, and packet loss, storing historical data for up to two years. You can set custom threshold alerts based on your environment’s specific requirements and fine-tune these thresholds per device type to catch performance issues early.
How is Auvik’s network optimization tool different from traditional monitoring solutions?
