Fine grained network management to edge device features

A network management method, comprising:

• maintaining an event database providing a mapping of multimodal sensor data to events of one or more devices coupled to a network;
• obtaining a set of multimodal sensor data relating to a device of the one or more devices;
• determining, utilizing the mapping, a match of the set of multimodal sensor data to a first event associated with the device;
• and
• based at least in part on the determined match, causing generation or updating of first event data associated with the first event, the first event data being accessible by network management software of the network management system;
• detecting the first event data;
• and
• based at least in part on the detection the first event data, causing a modification of operation of the device.
