Cisco DNA Center Assurance and Analytics

Wi-Fi 6 Readiness Dashboard

This new dashboard helps ensure that your wireless network is ready for the campus of the future.
It provides insights into the Wi-Fi 6 readiness state of clients, access points, and wireless controllers on your network and helps you compare how your
Wi-Fi 6 network may perform compared to older Wi-Fi technologies.

PoE Analytics

Leveraging the streaming telemetry from Catalyst 9000 switches, network administrators can now get centralized usage and operational visibility into a wide range of endpoints that are drawing power from the network, going up to 90W with Cisco UPOE® and UPOE+.

Application Assurance enhancements

Network administrators now have access to latency metrics split across LAN, WAN, and app server segments for faster fault isolation. You can now also quickly turn on application telemetry in all applicable interfaces via the new Automatic Selection algorithm.

Enhanced wired client analytics

Leveraging streaming telemetry from switches, Assurance now offers near real-time updates to wired client analytics and provides fine-grained reason codes for authentication and authorization events for faster troubleshooting.

Programmability and reports

With 11 new APIs and 5 new reports, application developers enjoy more customization options across their client, network, and application areas.

SNMPv3 support for Assurance

Secure your network operations with full support for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) v3 for Assurance capabilities.

HA support for Assurance

Cisco DNA Center supports Assurance HA in the local 3-node cluster. The feature is automatically turned on if a cluster is HA-enabled. Behavior of the Assurance data and services follows the same paradigm as Automation: When a failure is detected, the system moves services and data to another node, restarts the services, and
resumes functionality.
