Assalamualaikum steemians

** _______ How are you?Hope so everyone would be safe and sound just like me as I am also safe Alhamdulillah..... ______ If I talk about my today's topic then today here I am going to share about network troubleshooting so let me delve into depth of this topic! ![technology-792180_1280 (1).jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmS7LE3CWw6HTfHfarvr6T5Xpu4FmGvUHrEFQ4NCk3vhai/technology-792180_1280%20(1).jpg)[Source](https://pixabay.com/photos/technology-tablet-digital-tablet-792180/) If I talk about network troubleshooting then this is phenomenon of identification and resolution of problems in a computer network.It consists of systematic approach for diagnosing and fixing issues which gives surety that network runs in a smooth and efficient way.Network troubleshooting needs proper knowledge how of protocols, devices as well as configurations of network. If I talk about first step in network troubleshooting then this is identification of a problem.It includes to gather data about problem including symptoms, devices which are affected as well as time of occurrence.There are multiple tools including network monitoring software and log files used by network administrators for helping in identifying problem. If I talk about second most important step in network troubleshooting then this is to gather information.Network administrators requires collection of data about network which include configuration of devices, network topology as well as traffic patterns.This data may be gathered by the use of multiple tools including discovery of network protocols as well as network analyzers. After gathering information next step is for analyzing this gathered data or information by network administrators so that root cause of problem may be identified.It includes to examine information for patterns, anomalies as well as correlations.Network administrators use multiple tools for analyzing data which consists of network protocol analyzers and traffic simulators etc. If I talk about next step which comes after gathering data and analysing it then this is identification of root cause of issue which is an important step in network troubleshooting. Network administrators requires of using the knowledge of network protocols they have and devices for determination of underlying cause of problem.It can include to examine devices configuration,network topology as well as pattrens of traffic. ![synthetic-8597464_1280.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZst79BZx5Mj3nM97tTXsWMgbT7QiTCaWYidp1LZ7det4/synthetic-8597464_1280.jpg)[Source](https://pixabay.com/illustrations/synthetic-organic-handshake-future-8597464/) If root cause of issue has been find out then now there's a need of developing solutions by network administrators and it includes to make alternations in configuration of devices,to update software as well firmware as well as replacement of faulty hardware.Network administrators needs for testing their solution for giving surety that it may resolve issue. After that solution is implemented which is final step in network troubleshooting.Network administrators need for applying changes which they have developed to network.It involves to update configuration of devices, to install new software or hardware as well as making alternations in network topology. Last but not least there's a need of verification of solutions in network troubleshooting so network administrators needs for testing solutions for giving surety that it is resolving issues and don't create further problems.It includes to monitor network for bugs,to test connectivity of device as well as verification of performance of network. Solution now can also be documented in network troubleshooting.Network administrators need for documenting alternations that they made in network which includes devices configuration,network topology as well as traffic patterns.This sort of documentation may be used for future troubleshooting efforts and may be helpful in improving overall reliance as well as performance of network. If I conclude my discussion then I have discussed about network troubleshooting that what is this and then I have discussed about its involved steps in detail!I invite everyone to must share your feedback at my post! ---------- **
