4 1. Intrductin Cntur Data Slutins understands that rganizatins are under increasing pressure t becme mre efficient and mre prductive while keeping csts lw. It has becme essential fr rganizatins t retain their cmpetitive edge, and thse that neglect this pprtunity may find themselves falling behind their cmpetitin. IT is cntinuusly evlving, and new technlgy isn t ging t wait fr anyne. Cntur takes a practive apprach t Managed Services by staying ahead f the technlgy curve t ensure yur business desn t becme a thing f the past. 1.1 Cntur Clud Cntur Clud is wned and perated by Cntur Data Slutins. Cntur Clud is built n enterprise grade platfrms and deplyed acrss fur data centers in Nrth America. Cntur Clud prvides cnsistent netwrking and security fr applicatins running n-premise r in the clud. Our platfrm utilizes a single management cnsle, Cinch, and a cmmn applicatin prgramming interface. Cntur Clud ffers numerus benefits including: Micr-Segmentatin Security Plicies Cntur Clud prvides cntrl ver East-West traffic between native wrklads running in private and public cluds. Security plicies are defined nce and applied t wrklads. These plicies are supprted in multiple, regins and supprt a multi-clud strategy. Plicies are dynamically applied based n a rich set f cnstructs, such as wrklad attributes and userdefined tags. Rgue r cmprmised wrklads can als be autmatically quarantined. Netwrk Cntrl and Prtability Cntur Clud prvides cnsistency and cntrl ver netwrk plicies, while als ffering prtability. Precise cntrl is given ver netwrking tplgies and addressing, prviding capabilities such as stretching subnets acrss availability znes. Prvisining and management f netwrking and security plicies acrss clud accunts can be greatly simplified and standardized thrugh the use f templates. Increased Visibility Acrss Cluds Cntur Clud imprves visibility and analytics fr native wrklads in the clud using existing and familiar netwrk management tls. Cnsistent peratins Cntur Clud brings a standardized and cnsistent peratinal mdel t applicatins running natively in public cluds. A single management cnsle and cmmn APIs allws clud teams t simplify their peratins and scale acrss a grwing number f public clud envirnment leveraging existing autmatin tls. Existing Day 2 peratins tls can be used t prvide end-t-end mnitring, trubleshting and auditing. 1.2 CINCH CINCH is Cntur Clud s prprietary autmatin platfrm, enabling self-service t easily create, mdify and manage all f yur infrastructure and clud data. CINCH makes it easy t find infrmatin, manage yur accunt and instantly cnnect with yur Cntur team. CINCH cmpnents include: CINCH Dashbard prvides a quick verview f yur entire accunt. Instantly view all recent activity, including bills, reprts and tickets. CINCH Slutins Center prvides real-time status f yur active cmpnents, ability t manage yur cmpnents and add additinal cmpnents n the fly.

Standard Reprts 2.1 Service Level Objectives (SLO) The fllwing utlines Cntur s Service Level Objectives (SLO) that must be achieved fr each service activity, functin and prcess. Mean Time t Ntify (MTTN) Prvides administratrs with data n the length f time fr cases t be picked up by the Netwrk Operatins Center and alert the custmer f the event. In supprt f service management initiatives, this data can be used t cmpile and reprt n average times and trends fr respnding t cases f varius pririties. Mean Time t Begin Analysis (MTTBA) Prvides administratrs with the data n the length f time between a case pening and it being wrked by the Netwrk Operatins Center. In supprt f service management initiatives, this data can be used t cmpile and reprt n average times and trends fr wrking cases f varius pririties.

7 Mean Time t Reslve (MTTR) Prvides administratrs with data n the length f time fr case cmpletin. These time attributes prvide insight int hw lng it is taking the Netwrk Operatins Center t reslve and clse cases f different pririties. In supprt f service management initiatives, this data can be used t cmpile and reprt n average times and trends fr wrking cases f varius pririties. 2.2 Device Specific Real-Time Reprts Real-time device specific reprts can graph up t 60 days f device metrics. The data can be exprted fr analyzing. Examples f data prts are CPU utilizatin, interface statistics, envirnmental sensr values, memry statistics, etc. Bandwidth Utilizatin Prvides data n the amunt f peak input and utput bandwidth and average input and utput bandwidth utilized ver time. Devices cnfigured fr bandwidth graphing will display fr selectin within the reprt. This reprt is useful in cmparing actual bandwidth utilized versus bandwidth prvisined at different pints in the netwrk. This can identify areas where additinal bandwidth is needed t increase service levels, r where bandwidth can be reduced resulting in cst savings. Hardware Inventry Reprt Prvides device name, IP addresses, type, mdel, serial number, and the last successful backup. The hardware Inventry reprt is autmatically generated n the first f every mnth fr previus mnths data. Mnthly Device Availability Reprt Displays percentage uptime and dwntime fr the previus mnth. The reprt runs n a scheduled basis n the first f each mnth and will pull data fr the previus mnth. Infrastructure Reprt This reprt will list devices, versin, flash size, RAM size, and mdules installed. Only devices that respnd t SNMP queries will appear in this reprt. 3. Advanced Reprts Advanced Reprts prvide a detailed lk at the Service and the Managed Cmpnents cvered by the Service. 3.1 System Hardware Reprt Identifies each hardware cmpnent under management and prvides the fllwing infrmatin: Hst name, IP address, device mdel, serial #, site name cntract expiratin data. 3.2 System Infrastructure Reprt Identifies IOS image and flash/ram per managed device and cnsists f the fllwing infrmatin: Site name, Hst name, device mdel, mdules, IOS versin, IOS subset, IOS image name, Flash size, RAM.

A list f Metered Usage cmpnents is prvided in Appendix A. 3.3 Inventry Reprt List all active Custmer managed devices, by site name, device type/mdel, device name, Managed Custmer IP address, last gd backup and list cnfig archive exceptins. The reprt cnsists f the fllwing: site name, site lcatin, device type, device name, IP address (NAT), IP address (nt NAT), SNMP cmmunity string, activatin date, date f last backup. 3.4 Glbal Ticket Reprt Identifies the devices in the system that have been impacted by an Incident r Prblem and extend f AutCase activity. The device names indicate the lcatin in prductin envirnment. End user selects the system, time frame and generates a reprt via Web prtal. 3.5 Service Experience Reprt Identifies tp ten sites that have experienced the mst tickets and causes. The reprt cnsists f: site names, site lcatin, # f change tickets, # f Incident tickets, device types, device name, majr cause. 3.6 Operatins Reprt Prvides mnthly tickets activity, detail by user, suppressin, created by, ntificatin and respnse times.
