Simulation software Paragon Planner

visualizationreportingmodeling

Paragon Planner (formerly NorthStar Planner) is a cloud-native modeling tool you can use for offline visualization and detailed architectural planning of your production network. It enables you to forecast the impact of network changes such as latency, additional traffic, shifts in traffic flows, and new capacity or services. Network operators can simulate the effects of these changes and other traffic scenarios in Paragon Planner without affecting the production network.  By collecting data through dynamic-topology or label-switched path (LSP) data acquisition, Paragon Planner generates a graphical view of the network, enabling operators to add, remove, and reconfigure network elements. Simulations can be run on demand or scheduled, to help assess the network for potential failure scenarios. Paragon Planner's built-in reporting capabilities can be used for network planning or running detailed simulation outcomes that are vital for network optimization. Key Features Design: Construct network topology maps showing simulated or imported data for nodes, links, and LSPs. Simulate: Create or schedule simulation events to analyze the network model based on failure scenarios such as link congestion, broken link, unresponsive node, and more. Analyze: Produce extensive reports for simulation and planning.
