Abstract

A device may receive configuration information for generating an application probe. The application probe may be used to request network information, associated with an application, from network devices. The device may determine, based on the configuration information, traffic parameters associated with the application. The device may determine a requested type of network information to be requested from the network devices. The device may generate the application probe by including, in the application probe, the traffic parameters and information identifying the requested type of network information. The device may transmit the application probe to a network device of the network devices. The device may receive, from the network device and based on transmitting the application probe, a value associated with the requested type of network information.
