Network Analysis 
 
Network analysis must be performed before installation of the relevant systems and applications to guarantee smooth operation in the customer network.  
Network analysis determines the conditions under which the customer's network is suitable for HiPath 3000/5000. The result report is an integral component of the requirement specifications in the HiPath 3000/5000 solution contract.  
The Network Analysis service module is used to check whether the customer's communication network is suitable for business-over-IP solutions from Siemens Enterprise Communications GmbH & Co. KG (HiPath 3000, HiPath 4000, HiPath 5000 etc.). The assessment is carried out on the basis of parameters preset by the products. The customer receives a final report in which the network structure and operating parameters (percentage utilization, delay, jitter) are documented.
