What-You-Draw-Is-What-You-Get

This intuitive interface allows administrators to design network topologies through a visual canvas, automatically generating the corresponding configuration. It simplifies network orchestration and ensures centralized configuration management across clusters, making complex network setup more accessible and less error-prone.

LLDP

The Link Layer Discovery Protocol implementation automatically discovers and maps physical network connectivity between hosts and adjacent switches. This provides visibility into the physical network topology, aiding in troubleshooting and ensuring proper network configuration validation.

Fault Prevention and Handling

aNET incorporates multiple reliability features including redundant Layer 3 forwarding paths, comprehensive network connectivity testing tools, and VXLAN tunnel verification. The system also provides continuous network monitoring with alerting capabilities to proactively identify and address potential network issues before they impact services.

VM NIC Rate Limiting

Administrators can enforce bandwidth limits on virtual machine network interfaces to prevent any single VM from consuming excessive network resources. This quality of service control ensures fair bandwidth allocation and protects against "noisy neighbor" scenarios in multi-tenant environments.

Network Health Monitoring

The system continuously monitors the health and performance of both physical and virtual network components. It tracks metrics such as packet loss, error rates, latency, and throughput, providing administrators with a comprehensive view of network health and alerting them to potential issues that could affect application performance.
