Method and system for configuring behavioral network intelligence system using network monitoring programming language

A system for determining the behavioral impact of applications on a network, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory communicatively connected to the processor, the memory containing a plurality of instructions that, when executed by the processor, configure the system to:
• define at least one target of a traffic segment to be monitored using at least one application path attribute of an application, wherein the application is accessed via at least one user device connected to a network, wherein the at least one application path attribute is defined for an application path keyword and an application path assessment keyword;
• define at least one condition representing the behavior of the at least one application path attribute of the application, wherein the at least one condition is defined using a plurality of terms and Boolean expressions, each of the plurality of terms is defined for a behavior keyword and a behavior keyword assessment;
• parse the at least one target and the at least one condition to generate a list of entities;
• and
• instantiate a plurality of inference modules based on the parsing of the at least one target and the at least one condition;
• wherein the at least one target and the at least one condition can be interpreted by a monitoring system to allow for determining a behavioral impact of the application on the network.
