BGP Data is delivered as an optional add-on to Noction Flow Analyzer.
NFA overcomes the limitation of BGP support in traditional NetFlow. It employs a collection of full BGP data from BGP tables of edge routers, extracting the required BGP attributes. NFA extracts BGP attributes such as AS_PATH and matches the obtained data with a corresponding flow record from Flow DB tables. This enables NFA to see and filter on the full BGP path, not just the next hop, first three or last three AS numbers.
Enabling BGP data will require you to establish a BGP session between at least one of your routers and NFA.
Use the BGP Report section to see BGP data obtained from your devices. The BGP Route advertisements and withdrawals can now be visualized both in a graph and table mode.
Filter, group, and search data according to your needs. Create and add custom widgets to any of your dashboards.
NFA offers a great way to visualize the Internet traffic routing criteria along with traffic volume using a Sankey type diagram. Its extensive filtering capabilities can provide you with a clear picture of the paths your traffic is taking, the countries regions or cities you traffic originates and terminates in, traffic volume distribution by different paths, best potential new peering candidates, and a lot more.

• Time
