Tool for network performance design and configuration

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for designing network performance and configuration include determining one or more use cases for a network to be provisioned, based on at least one or more business verticals related to a customer of the network. A data plane scale is determined from the use cases and an initial data plane scale generated using a linear regression on one or more data plane parameters. The data plane parameters include a platform type, feature set, packet size, or software version of the network. A control plane scale is determined from the use cases and an initial control plane scale generated using a linear regression on one or more control plane parameters of the network. The control plane parameters include a platform type, feature set, or software version of the network. The network is provisioned for the data plane scale and the control plane scale.
