Monitoring Components
The following information describes monitoring different components for MATRIXX.
Monitoring MATRIXX Traffic Routing Agent
Traffic Routing Agent SNMP statistics are defined in the matrixx_tra_mib.txt MIB file and are returned by the print_snmp_stats.py script when run on any of the Traffic Routing Agent servers. They include categories such as TCP traffic, UDP traffic, Diameter Gateway traffic, and MDC Gateway traffic.
Display Traffic Routing Agent Connections
Use the print_tra_connections.py utility to display information about current and past Traffic Routing Agent (TRA) connections, including remote and local addresses, creation timestamps, bytes sent and received, packets sent and received, and request processing timing data per connection.

MATRIXX Monitoring and Logging
- About MATRIXX Monitoring and Logging
  MATRIXX Monitoring and Logging describes monitoring and logging for MATRIXX components in a MATRIXX environment.
- Metrics and Alerts
  The following information describes monitoring metrics and alerts information for MATRIXX. MATRIXX Support recommends using the Prometheus and Grafana third-party products to monitor a MATRIXX environment, along with aggregated logging.
- Logging
  The following describes logging information for MATRIXX.
- Tracing
  The following information describes tracing information for MATRIXX.
- Monitoring Components
  The following information describes monitoring different components for MATRIXX.
  - Monitoring MATRIXX Business API Gateway
    Business API Gateway SNMP statistics are defined in the matrixx_web_mib.txt file and you display them using the snmp-net-utils snmpwalk command.
  - Monitoring MATRIXX Call Control Framework
    The topics in this section have information about monitoring Call Control Framework (CCF) components, including Network Enabler and CAMEL Gateway.
  - Monitoring Diameter Events
    Diameter Event Logger listens to the Diameter Gateway through a TCP connection and logs diameter application messages to a JSON file.
  - Monitoring Event Streaming
    Event streaming errors are logged in the Event Streaming Framework mtx_event_streamer.log file. Event Streaming Framework uses Log4j 2.x to log error, debugging, and informational messages. You can also monitor event streaming performance using the performance_analysis_event_server.py script. For information about the script, see the discussion about performance_analysis_event_server.py.
  - Monitoring MATRIXX Route Cache
    Monitor the Route Cache by reading watermark log messages for each Route Cache table and Route Cache SNMP statistics. The SNMP statistics are defined in the matrixx_rc_mib.txt MIB file and returned by the print_snmp_stats.py script. They include statistics on subscriber and session data, statistics on insert, fetch, erase, and iterator operations, general statistics on subscriber records, and garbage collection.
  - Monitoring Payment Service Logging
    Payment service logs messages to the payment-service.log.
  - Monitoring MATRIXX SNMP Statistics
    By default, the SNMP Agent running on a MATRIXX Engine monitors the status and health of all the servers and clusters it has. It collects statistics to aid in identifying potential processing issues.
  - Monitoring MATRIXX Traffic Routing Agent
    Traffic Routing Agent SNMP statistics are defined in the matrixx_tra_mib.txt MIB file and are returned by the print_snmp_stats.py script when run on any of the Traffic Routing Agent servers. They include categories such as TCP traffic, UDP traffic, Diameter Gateway traffic, and MDC Gateway traffic.
    - Display Traffic Routing Agent Statistics
      Traffic Routing Agent (TRA) SNMP statistics include the number of received, throttled, cached, and dropped packets, connection bridges, and the number of upstream and downstream bytes sent and received.
    - Display Traffic Routing Agent Connections
      Use the print_tra_connections.py utility to display information about current and past Traffic Routing Agent (TRA) connections, including remote and local addresses, creation timestamps, bytes sent and received, packets sent and received, and request processing timing data per connection.
    - Configuring Health-Based Monitoring and Throttling for TRA
      In load-balancer mode, the Traffic Routing Agent (TRA-PROC) pool monitoring and traffic routing functions can take the health status of downstream nodes into consideration.
    - Configuring TRA System Logs
      Perform the following tasks to configure the default rsyslog behavior and log rotation for Traffic Routing Agent (TRA) logs.
  - Monitoring MATRIXX Web Apps
    Use the MATRIXX system logs and SNMP statistics and notifications to monitor the MATRIXX web-facing applications, such as RS Gateway, Gateway Proxy, and My MATRIXX.
  - Monitoring MATRIXX SBA Gateway
    The MATRIXX SBA Gateway SNMP statistics are defined in the matrixx_web_mib.txt file, using the snmp-net-utils snmpwalk command to display them.
  - Monitoring 5G Event Streaming
    5G event streaming can be monitored with standard Kafka and custom metrics.
  - Monitoring Kafka CDR Consumer
    Use aggregated logging and the Prometheus and Grafana third-party products to monitor Kafka CDR Consumer.

Display Traffic Routing Agent Connections

Use the print_tra_connections.py utility to display information about current and past Traffic Routing Agent (TRA) connections, including remote and local addresses, creation timestamps, bytes sent and received, packets sent and received, and request processing timing data per connection.

About this task

Note: The management interface used by the print_tra_connections.py utility is configured for you in the ${MTX_CONF_DIR}/tra_config.xml file:

<management-interface>
    <port>7080</port>
</management-interface>

For more information about the tra_config.xml file, see the discussion about configuring tra_config.xml parameters in MATRIXX Installation and Upgrade.

On a Traffic Routing Agent server, perform these steps to run the print_tra_connections.py utility to obtain connection information.

Procedure

Run the print_tra_connections.py utility.

The utility reads the port of the management interface server from the management interface element in the tra_config.xml file. Depending on options used with the print_tra_connections.py utility, the utility reports the VS name, the total number of active connections, and upstream and downstream information for each connection.

For information about past connections, for example to understand what connections existed before a particular event, run the print_tra_connections.py utility with the -p option.

For information about other available options, see the discussion about the print_tra_connections.py utility.
