You can now ensure that your application tests probe the paths that you have defined
for your users in Prisma SD-WAN policy rules to get a better sense of users'
actual application experience.
Previously, your synthetic application tests in Autonomous DEM probed all
possible network paths to an application. This often skewed your application
experience scores with irrelevant data from unused paths, making it difficult and
time-consuming to troubleshoot performance issues.
If you have configured
Prisma SD-WAN path policy rules for your remote
sites, you can now specify that your
synthetic application tests probe a
particular SD-WAN path. This allows you to test the exact path your user traffic
actually follows, eliminating irrelevant data from your analysis.
Focusing on these active paths provides an application experience score that
accurately reflects real-world user experience. This precision helps you resolve
issues faster, make better-informed decisions to improve application performance,
and significantly lower your mean time to resolution.
