US 11,115,300 B2 · Anomaly detection and reporting in a network assurance appliance

Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for detecting and reporting anomalies in a network environment for providing network assurance. In some embodiments, a system can determine confidence scores for at least one value of parameters of a network environment defining network events occurring in the network environment. The confidences scores can indicate a frequency that the defined network events have a specific event state. The confidence scores can be monitored to detect an anomaly in the network environment. In response to detecting the anomaly in the network environment, the system can determine a relevant network state of the network environment. The relevant network state of the network environment and the anomaly in the network environment can be presented to a user.

Dependent claims

A method comprising:

sorting network events based on values of parameters of a network environment defining the network events;
identifying event states of the network events;
determining a confidence score that at least one of the values is associated with at least one event state of the event states and includes at least a frequency that the associated network event has the at least one event state;
monitoring the confidence score to detect an anomaly in the network environment;
in response to detecting the anomaly, identifying a relevant network state of the network environment by gathering characteristics of a relevant portion of the network environment at a specific time frame when the anomaly occurred in the network environment;
and
presenting relevant network state and the anomaly in the network environment.
