Definition & Why It Matters

What is Teneo’s Network Performance Monitoring & Diagnostics (NPMD)?

Teneo’s Network Performance Monitoring & Diagnostics (NPMD), powered by Allegro Packets, helps IT teams quickly uncover the true root cause of network and application performance issues through real-time and historical packet capture and analysis.

Instead of triangulating root cause from device metrics, flow summaries, and logs that each show only part of the picture, NPMD analyzes the actual network traffic flowing across your environment. This gives teams deeper packet-level visibility into application performance, VoIP quality, cloud traffic, and user experience, helping them move from guesswork to evidence-based troubleshooting.

With the actual packet-level evidence in hand, IT teams can resolve issues faster and eliminate the back-and-forth over whether the problem is coming from the client, the network or the application server.

Dashboards show symptoms. Packets reveal the root cause.

Challenges

The Challenges Modern IT Teams Face

Most IT teams already have strong monitoring coverage, but metrics, logs, and flow data only tell part of the story when teams need to know exactly what happened and why.

As environments become more complex, IT teams struggle with:

icon
Slow Root Cause Analysis
Traditional network performance monitoring tools often show alerts without explaining exactly why performance issues are happening.
icon
Lack of Packet-Level Visibility
Metrics, logs and flow data alone cannot always reveal the true source of latency, packet loss, jitter, or application degradation.
icon
Intermittent Issues Disappear Before Investigation
Without historical packet analysis and packet replay capabilities, IT teams lose the evidence needed to troubleshoot past events.
icon
Limited Visibility Across Hybrid Environments
Many cloud-based network monitoring tools struggle to provide consistent visibility across cloud, on-premises, SaaS, and remote environments.
icon
Finger-Pointing Between Teams
Networking, security, cloud, desktop, and application teams often rely on different tools and conflicting data sources.
icon
Rising Downtime Costs
Application slowdowns, VoIP issues, and network outages impact productivity, customer experience, and revenue.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is packet capture?

Packets are the fundamental units of network communication, carrying everything from application requests and responses to voice, video, and cloud traffic. Packet capture is the process of collecting and storing these packets as they travel across a network.

IT teams use packet capture to troubleshoot performance issues, investigate security incidents, analyze network activity, and understand exactly how applications, devices, and users are communicating across the environment, with a level of detail traditional monitoring tools cannot provide.

What is Network Performance Monitoring & Diagnostics (NPMD)?

NPMD is Teneo’s packet-based network monitoring and diagnostics service, built on Allegro’s Network Multimeter technology. While traditional monitoring tools triangulate root cause from device metrics, flow summaries, and logs that each show only part of the picture, NPMD analyzes the actual traffic flowing across your environment. This gives teams the direct, timestamped evidence needed to identify whether a performance issue stems from the network, an application, or a specific user path, without the back-and-forth that indirect data always creates.

How is NPMD different from traditional infrastructure monitoring?

Traditional monitoring tracks device health, including CPU load, interface utilization, and error counters, advising that something is wrong, but rarely “why”. NPMD analyzes the actual traffic flowing across your network, exposing TCP retransmissions, application response times, and session-level behavior that device metrics simply cannot see.

Teneo pairs that packet-level visibility with AI-assisted analysis and deep networking expertise, giving teams not just the data, but the context and guidance needed to move from detection to resolution faster.

What environments does this support?

Enterprise data centers, cloud environments, hybrid infrastructures, branch offices, VoIP platforms, industrial networks, and SaaS environments.

Can this help troubleshoot Microsoft Teams and VoIP issues?

Yes. NPMD provides deep visibility into voice and video traffic including SIP-based VoIP, Microsoft Teams, Webex, and similar platforms. For any call, teams can see packet loss, jitter, and MOS scores, which grade call quality on a scale of 1 to 5, down to the individual session level. Rather than relying on user complaints like ‘my call sounded choppy,’ teams can identify exactly whether the problem was network congestion, jitter on a specific path, or something outside the network entirely. Historical VoIP analysis means teams can investigate a call quality complaint hours after it occurred, not just while the problem is actively happening.

Does the solution support historical analysis?

Yes. NPMD continuously maintains both historical packet analysis data and full packet capture, allowing teams to investigate intermittent issues long after they occur.

Teams can quickly search historical traffic, replay captured network activity using original timestamps, and extract pre-filtered packet captures to reconstruct exactly what happened across the environment. This makes NPMD especially valuable for troubleshooting hard-to-reproduce issues and performing network forensics investigations.

Can this integrate with existing monitoring tools?

Yes. NPMD is designed to work alongside your existing monitoring, observability, and security platforms — not replace them.

It can integrate with tools like Wireshark, SIEM platforms, IDS/IPS systems, and NetFlow/IPFIX workflows, adding the packet-level evidence needed to quickly validate root cause and accelerate troubleshooting.

Is this suitable for distributed enterprise environments?

Absolutely. NPMD is designed for distributed enterprise environments, with physical and virtual deployments that can scale across remote offices, data centers, cloud environments, and global networks — all managed through a single interface.

The platform supports packet-level visibility across distributed environments with centralized management, packet synchronization between locations, endpoint visibility, and remote traffic collection capabilities that help teams quickly isolate where performance issues are occurring.

What is packet replay?

Packet replay re-feeds captured network traffic back through the analysis engine using the original packet timestamps, recreating the exact sequence and timing of what happened on the network at that moment. Rather than simply reviewing static logs or summaries, teams can analyze historical traffic the same way they would analyze live traffic, making it especially powerful for investigating intermittent issues, remote site incidents, or anything that happened before anyone knew to look.
