Tier 1 Providers Performance Monitoring Dashboard
Our Tier 1 providers performance monitoring service is offered free of charge. It offers network professionals a first-hand view into the general Internet performance as well as the performance of specific Tier 1 networks.
We focus on top providers: CenturyLink, Cogent, GTT, Level 3, NTT, Telia, XO, Zayo, and Hurricane Electric. The data is based on different levels of aggregation: General, Worldwide, National, Regional, and Local.
All presented results are based on the analysis of the millions of successful probes – ICMP, UDP, and TCP_Syn – continuously performed by Noction IRP Lite instances, across diverse prefixes and locations.
The Tier 1 ISPs’ average packet loss and latency data are well sampled, as most IRP Lite–enhanced networks are speaking to around a third of the routing table each day, often across multiple regions and peering points.
We combat bias by utilizing the active-measurement data types mentioned above, rather than relying on third-party surveys or information provided by the Tier 1 network providers themselves.
The service can be used as a reference when negotiating and/or developing a mature multihoming strategy for your Internet connectivity, including provider selection, SLA discussions and performance benchmarking.
