Neighboring network devices

A non-transitory, computer readable medium storing instructions which, when executed by a processing resource cause a computer to:

• determine a characteristic including a problem condition or defect which is experienced by a subset of network devices;
• determine that:
• at least a first two network devices of the subset of network devices which experience the condition are neighbors;
• and
• at least a second two network devices of the subset of network devices which experience the condition are neighbors;
• indicate a number of regions that each of the network devices are within, wherein network devices which are in the same subset and determined to be neighbors are in the same region;
• and
• merge a number of the network devices from being within two different regions to be in a same region based on at least one network device being a neighbor to at least one network device in both regions.

A method, comprising:

• determining a characteristic including a problem condition or defect which is experienced by a subset of network devices;
• determining that:
• at least a first group of the subset of network devices which experience the condition are neighbors with each other;
• and
• at least a second group of the subset of network devices which experience the condition are neighbors with each other;
• indicating a number of regions that the first group of the subset of network devices and the second group of the subset of network devices are within, wherein network devices which are determined to be neighbors are in the same region;
• merging a number of the network devices from being within two different regions to being in a same region based on at least one network device being a neighbor to at least one network device to both regions;
• and
• performing a corrective action to prevent the characteristic from being experienced by the subset of network devices.
