Which three statements describe intent-based analytics?

Intent-based analytics (IBA) is a feature of Juniper Apstra that allows you to combine intent from the network design with current and historic data from devices to reason about the network at-large1. IBA has the following characteristics:

It is a real-time information processing pipeline. This means that IBA can ingest, process, and analyze large amounts of data from devices in real time, using agents and probes. Agents are software components that collect data from devices and send them to the Apstra server. Probes are user-defined queries that aggregate data across devices and generate advanced data that can be more easily reasoned about1.

It is used to establish network performance baselines. This means that IBA can use the advanced data to measure and monitor the network performance against the expected outcomes and service levels. IBA can also use the historic data to create baselines that represent the normal behavior and state of the network2.

It alerts the network operator when network performance moves away from the baseline. This means that IBA can detect and report any anomalies or deviations from the baseline or the intent in the network. IBA can also provide insights and recommendations for troubleshooting and resolving the issues2.

The following two statements are incorrect in this scenario:

It indicates when device operating versions require updating. This is not true, because IBA does not provide any information or guidance about the device operating versions or updates. IBA is focused on the network performance and compliance, not on the device maintenance or upgrade1.

It collects information from vendor websites. This is not true, because IBA does not collect any information from vendor websites or external sources. IBA only collects information from the devices in the network, using agents and probes1.
