Networking Field Day 35: Democratization of Data Access Using Network LLMs with Selector AI

In this brief demo of the Selector platform, a user interacts with Selector Copilot to explore behavior within their network infrastructure. They first look into the latency of their transit routers, revealing a regional issue. The user drills down into network topology information to further investigate the latency, where they access details about devices, interfaces, sites, and circuits. Selector Copilot is then leveraged to surface circuit errors. Notably, each visualization provided by Selector Copilot can be copied and pasted onto a dedicated dashboard.

Networking Field Day 35: Selector AI Demo Part 2

In this demo, a user leverages Selector's Conversational AI, Selector Copilot, to investigate performance within their network infrastructure. The user first probes into the health of tenants located in a specific geographic region. Selector Copilot provides a visualization of the current state and summarization of the overall condition and afflicted tenants, along with probable root cause. The user then interacts with Selector Copilot to explore resource allocation, historical usage, and projected bandwidth. Each visualization provided by Selector Copilot can be copied and pasted onto a dedicated dashboard.
