Network analysis
The Network Analysis service module is used to check whether the customer’s communication
network is suitable for business-over-IP solutions from Siemens AG (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.

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 re-
quirement specifications in the HiPath 3000/5000 solution contract.
